In today's video I take a look at how I have managed to triple my KDP sales this month, within the last 2 weeks of publishing a new book. The new book is a coloring book that I am kind of using as a 'lead book' to gain more sales within my niche on Amazon. This strategy is something I am just playing around with on my low content books, so it is just some food for thought here when you are feeling more confident with your publishing business you might want to give this a try at some point. Let's build up a brand.

I just started KDP with 3 puzzle books exactly a month ago, and I now have 29 sales; 10 of which were organic. This is starting to be fun!
Amazing start!
Congratulations! I’m really excited for you.
Yoooo that’s super cool !!! Motivating me
Curious...I just started as well. One of my Journals still doesn't have the interior pages showing the listing. How long does it take for the interior pages to show up on the listing? thank you in advance
Congratulations, I have made zero sales since I started, it's about 4months now.
Launched my first book last week with an ad campaign to get sales (not to get initial profit). 13 sales so far including 2 friends (not linked to me on amazon in any way) who have promised to review. My very own printed copy arrived today, I'm a little bit happy :)
Chris, you stand out from the mass of KDP content creators on YT. Your videos are super insightful, transparent and reasonable. Thank you for doing this! 🙏
It's called a "loss leader" and supermarket brands have been using the strategy for years. Funnily enough, I priced one of my puzzle books at 4.99 a few weeks ago and it has also brought a heap of new sales for my other books in the series. I am kicking myself I didn't do it sooner!
Awesome! I’ll remember that 😁
Excellent video. I appreciate how you show the results of the price/cover changes. Thank you.
Great advice as always 👍
I've spent about $500 on a word search book I lunched a month ago, just to rank it, it was doing really well (10-20 sales a day), 1-3 clicks lead to a sale but the CPC is too high ($1-$3).
This week I paused the campains hoping that organic sales keep coming, the BSR now went higher from around 10k to over 40k.
Is it ranked first page for a competitive term?
@@ChrisRaydog I hope you read my previous reply, otherwise, it was deleted by ytb for some reason!

@@dhbimd1355 You've got some great books! I wouldn't worry too much about the BSR dropping, gonna assume sales will pick up towards the end of this month for this type of book. Maybe monitor it and see
I am one of those people who says price your book higher because it's associated with quality (and prices that are too low are associated with low quality). But that doesn't mean pricing it too high.
The correct way to execute this strategy is to look at the range of prices of books in the niche that are selling well and price yours around the middle or top of that range. What you *don't* want to do is say, "most books in this niche are selling from $7.99 - 9.99, so I'm going to price mine at $5.99." In this scenario, you also wouldn't want to price your book at $12.99. You *would* want to price it in the $7.99 to $9.99 range.
So it's not just a matter of a higher price getting more sales. It's about finding that sweet spot that tells the customer that the book is good quality at a good price.
I don't say this to argue with Chris, in fact, I love the strategy he's presented in this video! I'm going to try it out myself. Thanks for another great video, Chris! Your graphics may not be as flashy as some but, as always, your video offers real value. 💚💰
Great video. I sold my first book today. Got a few more colouring books almost ready to go.
Hi bro I wanna start Amazon KDP does that really works and after how much time u got Ur first sale and how much profit u expect per month
Awesome
@@ChrisRaydog For how long you start selling on Amazon KDP
@@pirhaidershah5252 I can't really answer your question properly as I've only started in the last 2 weeks.
@@pirhaidershah5252 Years my friend
Can't wait for your future video about QR CODES in books. I already know that in kindle books Amazon doesn't like links that takes the customer out of their ecosystem. But with physical books, there shouldn't be any issues (I hope)
Another epic video
Thanks Chris. I'm still learning and building, trying to focus on producing better and better products, and focusing towards hungrier niches. I'm going to look at utilizing elements from your launch strategy as well.
Awesome! Will check your channel out :)
@@ChrisRaydog Thanks Chris. I'm still learning and growing on TH-cam as well, trying to lean in to innovation as a slightly different approach.
This is awesome Chris!
The first part of the video is: hands-down-real-life- quality-information
But
I personally found more value in the second part of the video (no spoilers)... It's something self-publishers inevitably have to face at some point in their books' lifetime... But surprisingly no one really talks about it.
Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks Mariel! Keep up the good work on your channel
I want to promote my adult coloring book - and my journals, but I'm not going to spend the money on ADs until Amazon uploads the interior images. I've waited for 3 weeks so for. How long does it take? My friends are buying the coloring book, but I can't imagine anyone else buying it - if they can't see some of the coloring pages. Thank you in advance.
@@CalmnessHeartsease thank you
I have revived dead books by totally changing the covers , so people who recognized the old cover no longer ignored the book. HOWEVER, that was a book that initially sold well. it was 2 years old at that point. (my cover making skills were two years better at that point) I agree most time just move on and create more and better books
AT what point do you think one must invest in advertising and do you have a tutorial on that?
Do you group similar books into one ad campaign or do you always create 1 ad campaign per book? Also, do you provide 1-2-1 consults?
I just want to understand online puzzle book sales. I’m still not sure I understand why someone would spend $10-$12 on a book from kdp when they can buy one from the dollar store for $1 or $2. I sincerely mean no disrespect to anyone in stating that. I’m just mystified at how people are able to make a business out of selling these books online when they’re a fraction of the price in any nearby store.
My thoughts are: if it's selling on Amazon, it's selling on Amazon. And whatever happens in local stores is completely irrelevant and doesn't even cross my mind. Go by Amazon's data and that alone. I wouldn't let that type of thought process hold you back -- the fact of the matter is, Amazon's traffic and selection is phenomenal and if it's selling on Amazon already, then you can sell it too :)
Someone made a good point about this in regards to Amazon FBA which is similar to KDP in some aspects. Very simple answer: Not everyone bargain shops. Some people buy immediately without thinking let me check if I can get it cheaper. Plus, some people shop mainly online and rarely go into dollar stores etc. When it comes to buying books, it's about having variety. Amazon has more variety than stores.
Actually I can answer this. My hubby loves crosswords so I picked up some of the dollar tree ones. They were so bad. The clues and answers didn’t make much sense. He likes a specific type with good clues that have answers that are considered easy. He’d rather spend more on a good quality book. Second, the dollar tree usually only gets three or four and an avid puzzler will go through those fast and want a new one they haven’t done before.
Thank you sm🙏❤️
running an auto ad since Feb. 20 on my Easter book but I am not getting many impressions. I have increased my bids. Now I am now at .40 cents. What else can I do to get more impressions (7 today). Price is good, book cover and interior were professionally done. Why is Amazon not showing my book?
Auto Ads rarely work, add manual Ads
@@tanakagarethmakuza3950 Thanks
Bro I'm running ads of 2$ per day with cpc of 0.20.
But I'm just getting around 40-50 impressions and 0 clicks can you please tell how many impressions are required to get at least 10 clicks per day?
Should I change my book cover or increase cpc?
Hey Chris, quick question.
I have an Amz Seller Account for FBA and would like to also start selling on Amazon KDP.
1. How should I go about creating my KDP account? Can I have an Amz Seller Account + KDP account with the same details?
2. Should I create a KDP account with a different email address? If so, do I need unique bank and Tax information as well?
3. Are the two linked in any way? Is there a chance of getting suspended because I now have an Amz seller account + KDP account?
Thanks for any help
Hi, you're much better off contacting Amazon for this. But saying that, my FBA and KDP email and details are all the same :)
Thanks Chris. Yeah I've been trying to but you know how hit and miss seller support can be.. Even the forums are useless for this question. But thanks for your reply I really appreciate it 🤙
Hi I just launched my ad campaign a couple of days ago for a few puzzle books... it's on auto targeting. I am showing NO data on my dashboard. Does it take a while for it show? Did I do something wrong? I have a budget of $7.50/ day with my bid at .21
