For me April was the best month so far, as I've made around $8.7k in royalties and 4.6k in profit. However in later April I had my ads suspended and the royalties went down significantly (-30-40%) in the next 2 months. As of late June the ads are back on, so now I'm back on track.
@@SeanDollwet yep. and there's a silver lining. I figured that some books are doing well even without ads plus this whole thing urged me start an email list, pinterest and instagram for my coloring book brand :)
Hi, as i don't see any other reply here but it's been 5 months since you posted this comment. Did you figure out something by yourself, or what are your suggestions 5 months after you did that? Thanks!
When you refer to starting in a new niche, do you do so under the same account or do you open a separate account for each niche you work in? I'm enjoying your videos and finding great value in them.
i don't know if i will hit 100K this year because i don't have anything published yet so i will have less than half of the year to hit that goal (but maybe i still will!). my current goal is to be at $275/a day by the end of the year (which would amount to $100k a year if i maintain it all next year). obviously it would be preferable to hit this before Q4 since sales then are usually above the norm but we will see if i can pull that off!
99% of us arent gonna see anything like this kind of money. Regardless of how many ads, books or other things we do. We also don’t know if anything you, or other youtubers are making is true as you never disclose your business. I followed 25 of your videos, have done 14 books 5 low content in low niches and 10 in others, run ads and received almost no orders.
I get it but there's a reason why no youtubers ever share their niche. Literally everyone copies the book if we do. Some RU-vidrs made that mistake and killed their KDP income
Hey Sean, just a heads up. Someone using your name and picture messaged me to whatsapp them in response to my last comment on this video. Sorry to say i fell victim to their scam. They invited me to their 1 on 1 training. I paid $200 thinking it was you. Please let people know so no one else falls for it!
Thank you for sharing. This is the best KDP content on YT. I'm starting this month with 2 partners, hoping to do 6-10 medium content books per week. Do you think this is attainable?
I like your honesty, but the real challenge is to make it 100k in profit not 100k in royalties as you can spend 100k more or less in ads (what is the point of some challenge like that).
Are your 58 books all texts that you've written yourself? That's impressive. If not is it AI-generated or are you taking someone else's texts? either way congrats on the success Sean
Hey Sean great work. During the first 1-2 months of launch, should i lower the cost of my paperback and ebook whilst running ads, to ensue 'clicks and sales' in order to secure myself for the amazon algorithm looking forward? Looking forward to a personal finance video soon.
You mentioned that you spend more on advertising early in the month and reduce spending as the month goes on. Why is that? Your cash flow availability? Book reader buying trends on KDP? Seasonal considerations? Thanks!
❤ this transparent report. Sean can I ask you about recurrent royalties sales? I mean after you publish a book, are you making sales mainly in the 1st 6 months, then the sales dry off or are u able to make relevant sales years after publishing (hence it's still worth advertising the book)? Id love to know your AD spent strategy when you first started your KDP business(if possible). Thanks. 🙏🙏
Hi Sean, with the new nitch, will you have a different Pen name? Also, when you have different Pen names, do you have different email list for the different Pen names?
Please, I want to ask a question. If I want to create a cookbook, do I possibly use Canva to make that or Google doc? And how do I divide a page into two on Google docs?
Do you have any videos regarding how to increase sales without Amazon Ads? I'm going in this with zero investment other than time, and I need to make this work. I've been averaging about 2 books sales a day, with 10$ a day investment for ads, but I won't be able to even afford that much longer.
Am new to kdp.....got inspired after watching videos about using AI to generate medium content books.....am about to publish my first colouring book for kids....but there's a lot of buzz about how Amazon might deactivate AI generated books....while words and sentences can be rephrased.....how do you change AI images so as to avoid having my account deactivated....only thing I can think of is getter rid of the background....Suggestions please....🙏🙏
Hi I'm a newly formed writer that just published a book on Webnovel and I want to create an account on Amazon KDP but I'm a bit wary about creating one and trusting the platform with my banking details. How legit is it using Amazon KDP?
So amazing Sean! I finally saved up $7K USD and see you Sean inside the Royalty Hero course in the second half of this July. I am really happy right now. I trust Sean 100000%
