Okay so the reports section in KDP is honestly where most people mess up because they just download the sales dashboard numbers once and think that’s all there is. But there’s like five different report types and they all show different stuff, which is super annoying but also useful once you figure out what each […]
Okay so the dashboard thing everyone obsesses over – your KDP reports – honestly most people are looking at the wrong numbers and it drives me crazy because I did the same thing for like two years. First week I published my first low-content book back in 2017, I checked my sales rank every hour. […]
Okay so Amazon KDP is basically Amazon’s self-publishing platform and honestly it’s probably the easiest way to get a book in front of actual buyers without dealing with traditional publishers or agents or any of that gatekeeping stuff. KDP stands for Kindle Direct Publishing and yeah it started as just ebooks but now you can […]
Okay so Amazon KDP is basically just Amazon’s self-publishing platform and honestly it’s way simpler than people make it sound.

Okay so here’s the thing about building a six-figure Kindle business – most people overcomplicate it when they’re starting out and I did the same thing back in 2017. You don’t need to write the next Great American Novel, you just need to understand Amazon’s algorithm and give people what they’re actually searching for. Start […]
Okay so here’s the thing about scaling KDP income – most people completely overthink it in the beginning and then don’t think strategically enough once they get a few books out there. I made like $47 my first month back in 2017 and thought I’d discovered a goldmine, which… I kinda had, but not in […]
Okay so here’s the deal with building an actual Kindle business because I see so many people starting this completely backwards and wondering why they’re not making money after three months. First thing – and I cannot stress this enough – you need to stop thinking about this as “writing books” and start thinking about […]
Okay so I just pulled together some real examples from my own catalog and a few publishers I consult with, and honestly the pattern is kinda obvious once you see it laid out. The Password Tracker That Made $18K in Year One This one still blows my mind because it’s so stupidly simple. One of […]
