Okay so sales velocity is basically just Amazon’s way of measuring how fast your book sells compared to others in your category, and I spent like three months last year obsessing over this because two of my planners were stuck at rank 80k while another one was sitting pretty at 12k even though they were […]
Okay so here’s the thing about selling ebooks on Amazon – the product page is literally everything and most people get it completely backwards. I was watching some crime documentary last week while updating one of my listings and realized I’d been doing the same thing wrong for like two years. Your Book Cover Is […]
Okay so I just tested a new ADP campaign last week and here’s the deal – most authors are burning money because they’re setting up campaigns like they’re selling widgets on Amazon instead of books. First thing you gotta know is that ADP isn’t actually called ADP anymore, it’s Amazon Ads now but everyone still […]
Okay so the whole CreateSpace to KDP thing… yeah, I migrated like 47 books when they forced everyone over back in 2018 and honestly it was way less painful than I expected but there are some gotchas you absolutely need to know about. First thing – if you’re still sitting on CreateSpace titles that never […]
Okay so adult coloring books are literally one of the easiest ways to make consistent money on KDP if you actually understand what people want to buy. I just launched three new ones last month and two are already ranking in the top 50 of their categories which is… honestly better than I expected. Here’s […]
Okay so coloring books on KDP are still weirdly profitable if you pick the right niche, and I mean *right* niche because the days of just throwing up “mandalas for adults” and making money are pretty much over. I was testing this last month while binge-watching Succession and realized that the books doing well aren’t […]
Okay so I just finished uploading three photo books last month and here’s what actually matters when you’re dealing with image-heavy stuff on KDP. The File Size Thing Everyone Gets Wrong First off, the 650MB limit is real but it’s also… not the problem you think it is. What kills most people is they’re uploading […]
Okay so I just wrapped up creating another coloring book last week and honestly the whole process is way simpler than people make it sound but there’s definitely some stuff you gotta know upfront. The Basic Setup You Actually Need First thing – you need design software and I’m gonna be real with you, Canva […]
Okay so puzzle books on KDP are honestly one of the easier low-content niches to get into but there’s some stuff nobody tells you upfront that’ll save you like weeks of headache. First thing – don’t overthink the puzzle types. I started with sudoku because everyone does sudoku right? Wrong. Well not wrong but the […]
Okay so I just uploaded three new adult coloring books last month and here’s what actually worked versus what everyone on YouTube tells you to do. The adult coloring niche is saturated but not dead, which sounds contradictory but hear me out. The market’s flooded with generic mandala books and “stress relief” patterns that all […]
