  • There is WAY too much competition for anyone just starting out with Amazon KDP, and Amazon is actually discouraging new sellers from making low content books. So what should you do instead?
    We'll show you how to make passive income by launching your first MEDIUM CONTENT KDP coloring book. But not only that, we'll show you how to do it the SMART way. And by "the smart way," we mean launching a medium content book in a niche with high demand, low competition, & high royalties. Does that sound like something you're interested in? Then keep watching! We'll show you what sets medium content books apart, how to identify a niche to launch your book in, create your book, & how to publish it on Amazon KDP.
    But not only that, we'll show you how to do this entirely for FREE.
    Launching a medium content book on Amazon's print on demand service (KDP) means you don't need to be an author or a designer to get started, and you don't need to own any of your own inventory. You just need to know how to do product research, and how to create the interior and cover using free templates and tools. In this video, we're walking you through a step-by-step tutorial on how to use Canva to design your book's cover & interior pages. We'll also show you how to create your first KDP listing so you can start making sales!
    Amazon KDP is one of our favorite ways of making money on Amazon, as this side hustle business can be started for free, by anyone! Watch how we make a low content KDP coloring book for FREE with Canva and other free tools.

      Struggling to create a book that isn’t rejected due to something called bleed. I tried 3 times. How wide do you have to make the design so it’s not rejected. I’m tired of starting over and getting told to stretch the cover for bleed and I stayed inside the red and then outside the red border……HELP

    From what I know about Canva and speaking to their customer support, you actually cannot use their images and sell them as-is. You have to change it into your own design in some way by merging elements etc in order to resell.

      @@motherofnerdlings Correct. But in this video compositions weren’t created lol. A composition would have been multiple images and/or elements PER page of the book. U can’t put 1 unaltered image per page like that. Canva is pretty picky with their rules believe it or not. I went back and forth with them for specific answers, and trust me, even when you use the images/elements, they have to be combined into a new design.

      Great information, but it is clear to get all this info you have to purchase Jungle Scout. I think it's pricy if you're not pumping out a lot of books. 10 different niches. Since I'm not looking at a LOT of competition but high demand I'm going to wait for when I'm looking for a different niche.

      We don need to stick to the page numbers which we entered in calculator, ryt? Or can we go bit above and beyond?
      Secondly, if i have entered 100 pages in calculator, does my front and back cover page count as 2 pages out of 100, or not?

    I did my first couple of low and medium content books and I have to point out, the thing with the pink frame (not allowed to get there) is wrong. I thought that first, too, stayed within the pink frame and ended up having my first sample print of a notebook with a pink frame around! So, yes, get to the OUTSIDE lines of the pink frame on the template. If I could post a photo I could prove it to you. Talking about the cover here.

      You simply needed to delete the pink frame after you were done using it as a guide.
      Anything you left visible will print.
      I don't understand why you think his example in the video of using the pink guide was wrong, because you did not delete it when you were done with it, and you uploaded it to Amazon KDP along with your book file.
      That is obviously why the book printed with the pink guides.

    The majority of KDP upload tutorials feature just two main themes . . . "Make money/live the life you want" - and/or - "Low/medium content books."
    Try searching for KDP toturials/demos etc. featuring HIGH content books (novels, poetry, scripts, non-fiction, DIY, Hobbycrafts etc. etc.) and you'll find yourself in a desert of almost nothing.
    There ARE a few, but the ones I've found either have unintelligible narration or muddled presentation.
    Even those who upload really excellent walk-throughs of KDP protocols and procedures virtually never feature high content books. It's always those same two themes I listed at the start.
    I'm currently working towards uploading and self-publishing a high content book so, once that's done, I'll make a note of what I've discovered (as a newbie to KDP) and then make a quick upload for my channel.

    • @carriebartkowiak
      @carriebartkowiak 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That's because those aren't called "high-content books".
      They're novels, poetry books, non-fiction books.
      There's an ocean of tutorials out there, just use the right terms. "How to publish my novel on kdp," "publish a poetry book on kdp," "how to write non-fiction," etc etc etc.

      @@carriebartkowiak That's pretty well the point I was making. However, I wanted to be fair, so I gave your suggestion a try, and almost without exception, the results narrowed down to picture books. Obviously, a story book for children can easily be a picture book (I follow Jules Marriner who has a brilliant channel for that genre and just look at the books by Oliver Jeffers).
      I tried 'how to publish a novella for children on KDP. That had almost the same result. Indeed, quite a few videos for any genre of children's book actually proved to be just walk-throughs of 'how to upload.'
      One good point would be that in terms of publication procedures, there seems to be no real difference because everything boils down to a PDF of the text and a flattened PDF of the cover. However, for genres such as, say, scripts, comic-style storyboards, poetry, interactive books etc. the importance of font choices, setting up your word processor page settings to match book sizes and formats etc. all come into play. Those are the areas I've been thinking about for my own project.
      As for the best walk-through's of uploading that I've settled on as being really helpful (for me) Bethany Atazadeh's was densely informative (I took 2 pages of notes):
      th-cam.com/video/hieHzwxZX3g/w-d-xo.html
      and Craig of SPE covered most of the same information but with a couple of additional tweaks:
      th-cam.com/video/HZtfPsjxT74/w-d-xo.html
      As I said, I'm keeping notes of my own experiences with a high content book for children. I'll filter out all those that are common across all genres, and will then make my own brief video in which I'll try to at least fill in a few of the blanks for those who are interested in publishing for that genre.

      So many of the KDP tutorial videos I've seen are like 10 minutes of hard-to-understand tutorials for how to generate a word puzzle on a separate website but then zero info about how to even construct the book, royalty info, how to make the cover, how to decide how much to charge, advertising, etc.
      I think the REAL money is actually in making tutorial videos.

    I have a question about royalties and profit margins. If you price a book between $2.99 - $9.99, do you get 70% royalties regardless of how much it costs to print the book? Because you are not printing the book yourself, you don't need to think about production costs. How can you estimate what Amazon would need to spend to produce it to achieve the desired quality of finished product?

      The 70% and 35% royalties are for ebooks. You have to look at what the cost of printing is to see what a print book makes, typically a lot less. Amazon will give you this info when you create your book.
