      Amazon KDP scammed me out of nearly $4000 dollars. They never provided the media promotion that I spent thousands on because Amazon did not accept my book and they knew Amazon did not accept my book. They weren't done they tried to scam me for $1100. to get a copyright that only costs $125. It was all scam.

    Thank you for your excellent video, which provided valuable information. However, I had a negative experience with The Publisher’s Vault, which you recommended. After choosing not to pursue membership with the $1 24-hour trial, I received an aggressive email threatening to cancel my KDP account, which I don't have. This was surprising and concerning, as I have no intention of selling colouring books or anything similar. It is sad to consider potential members dishonest and have bad intentions. Maybe The Publisher’s Vault should reconsider the trial period approach.

    Just FYI friends, I signed up for the publishing vault. You can only use the art you download if you keep up your monthly $27 membership. Once you are no longer a member, you can't use any of it for kdp or anything else. They are $67 a pack if you buy them outright. :(

      This is incorrect. If you've uploaded to KDP then yes you can keep the books up there. However you may not use the graphics again for any other project. This is stated in the terms. For the quality in the vault...$27 is a no-brainer.

    you choose to go to the vult company here is something to take in mind
    ""An active subscription is required to continue selling the digital products. When your subscription is ended you need to remove the files from your computer and any products you have created that is uploaded and is currently being sold can remain in place""
    Subscription is 27 per month. I have sold a few books on KDP and unless your very very lucky you will make that subscription money back, but defenitly not at the beginning...
    NOT trying to discourage you just trying to be transparent
    if this lady stops paying that membership she will have to remove her coloring book and delete all files on her computer or she can do a buy out that's usually really expensive to do

    hello
    Thank you for the video you provided, it is very helpful. I have a question.
    I was impressed with the categories part of the video. In other videos, you end with one category, but in this video, you keep adding 3 categories. Is there a reason for that, or does it help you sell more?

    • @ivyhang5084
      @ivyhang5084  7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you for your comment. Regarding your question, kdp allows you to select up to 3 categories now (although you don’t have to pick all 3). If you can, I would recommend picking all 3 categories as that will just give more avenues for potential customers to find your book (ie your book will be listed under more categories within kdp). Hope this helps!

    • @ivyhang5084
      @ivyhang5084  19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you for your kind comment! I’m not as familiar with Etsy requirements so would recommend you look into that separately. However for KDP, when it comes to paperback books there is no exclusivity requirement at the moment which means your books can be sold via other platforms as well. For digital / ebooks though if you are enrolled in the KDP select program then you need to make sure the ebook version of your book is exclusive to kdp. Hope this helps!

      @ivyhang5084  20 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Thanks for this video. Just noticed that in the publishers vault FAQs says
    Q: Can I Claim Copyright on Products I Customize?
    A: While customization is allowed, it does not transfer copyright to you. You can edit and resell the products, but you cannot claim them as entirely your own creation.
    So my understsnding is that we cannot answer 'yes' we have the copyright in KDP when uploading this book.
    Or have I missed something here?

      I haven't personally tried that but I believe you could. You can also let it go live and then order a copy right away. While you are waiting for the copy to arrive, you can put the book back in draft mode and then just flip it back to live mode after you receive a copy of your book and happy with the quality :)

      The minimum number of pages is 24 pages if you want to publish your book as a paperback on kdp. If you have 17 designs, one on each page and you are leaving the back side of each page blank then you would technically have 34 pages (17 sheets) so you would be fine :)

      Thank you for your kind comment! The only method I could think of is you could save / download the individual element as is against a white background first. Then you can re-upload that element into Canva. Bring the re-uploaded element (which now has a white background) back into your page. Then select the element and use the "remove background" capability within Canva. This should just remove the background around the lines but leave the white that is within the image intact. Maybe give it a try for one element first to see if it works?

I have an ai generated image of 96dpi can i use it? would be glad if u could make a video regarding dpi and how to check Canva image dpi and how to enhance images on Canva using Canva enhancer app.

      Thanks for your question! Regarding ai generated images, I would definitely recommend upscaling it with an ai image upscale tool before uploading it onto canva to create your books. There are many free ones out there that you could leverage - like “IMG upscaler”, etc. (google free ai image upscaler and you will see many options). These web based tools will allow you to upscale your ai image by 200-400% which based on my experience has been sufficient to ensure the books are printed in good quality. Hope this helps!

      @ivyhang5084  19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I don't typically add anything to the back pages which are blank. I typically just leave them blank and have not experienced any issues with publishing my coloring books this way on KDP thus far. However, if you prefer, you can certainly add a border or any sort of design element on the back pages, although I would suggest only adding it if it makes sense from a flow/ aesthetic perspective for your book and would recommend not adding it just for the sake of adding it. Hope this helps! :)

      Thanks for your comment! While it is possible, you can also mitigate this risk by combining different illustrations within the pack and across different packs in a unique way to create pages that would still be unique. You can also combine elements from other sources like canva/ AI, etc. if preferred in addition to the illustrations from the Publisher's Vault. In addition, they consistently add new content to the Vault throughout the month so there will constantly be fresh content as well :)

However, there is always the option of taking this one down and re-uploading a new version with the corrected title, etc. In my case, given this is meant to be a demo book, I think I will just leave it for now, but appreciate you letting me know :) Lesson learned that I should proof read even when I'm doing a demo before I hit publish!

      Appreciate your feedback. Regarding creditng the source of images, it will really depend on where the images are obtained from. For Canva images, for example, their terms of use make it clear that you do not need to provide attribution as long as you use their images in accordance with their licensing requirements. I have a video here which explains this further in case you might find it helpful: th-cam.com/video/MFc0e7e-CRI/w-d-xo.html Regarding the Publisher's Vault images, as demonstrated in this video, there is also no attribution required as long as you are a member with them. You pay a membership fee to be able to use their images in your books - that is their business model. Hope this helps to clarify. :)
