I made a coloring book, all thanks to you for teaching me, upload, published and made my first sale all in 1 week. I am so grateful to you for sharing something that can literally change people lives. Thank you!
That’s incredible! Thank you so much for coming back to share this with me- means a lot and so happy for your early success! 😊. Keep going and all the best!!
I searched yt “where to sell digital digital coloring books” and your video showed up. I watched every single step and am so thankful! It is hard to find someone in this space who isn’t gatekeeping to get ahead. Time to do my creatives.
Thank you so much for your kind words and so glad to hear that you found my video helpful! :) All the best with your KDP journey! I happened to click on your profile picture and saw some of the digital art on your channel and they look so awesome! Wishing you all the best!
You are the only person or RUclipsr I have seen who made a great presentation from begining to the end. This is a power packed project,while others will just give a scratch course. The only person or RUclipsr who had similar attributes like you in a different field is Alex the analyst. Thanks for being truthful. I will follow and share your videos. ❤
I sat through the whole video, only Ivy can make me do that because I have such a short attention span but her videos are so well put together, informative, walks by like butter, her calm voice. Ivy, you have my heart. ♥ keep making and thank you for putting in so many efforts for us.
Aww thank you so much for such a sweet comment! That is so very kind of you to say and I’m so glad you enjoy my videos and find them helpful :). All the best on your kdp journey!
@@ivyhang5084 I followed this video step by step using the 8.5 x 8.5 inch interior pages, but my KDP book cover template (PNG) does not want to copy & paste into the colouring book cover I created on Canva. Please can you help, as I’ve created all the colour pages, but can’t go any further without the cover. Many thanks
Were you a teacher in a previous life? Your videos are so clear and well made. The content is given over in a positive, calm and detailed way. Thanks for all your work. I loved the one with your daughter’s book and hope you make a series of them.
Thank you so much for your kind words! Made my day that you enjoy my tutorials and style of teaching :) Also, thank you for your kind comment about the video on my daughter's book - glad you enjoyed it!
I just ordered a sample of my first ever coloring book and it turned out really nice! I just watched this video last week and started implementing all the steps. Had my book on draft on KDP to order sample so I can improve anything that needs to be improved. I love the final product!! Excited to publish my first book! Thanks to you. I subscribed to the publisher's vault and it made everything easy 😍😍
So glad to hear! Congratulations on publishing your first coloring book - that's a huge milestone :) All the best with your KDP journey and thank you so much for your kind comment and support! :)
As some people said, amazing tutorial. You are patient and explain things clearly. Best tutorials I found for KDP. THANKS for your generosity by sharing all this with us!
Thank you Ivy. Using your great instructions I created a 62 page coloring book and uploaded it to KDP in about 4 hours. Great instructions. I learned a lot 🙂
That's amazing - congratulations on this huge achievement in such a short time! :) Appreciate your kind comment and glad you enjoyed the tutorial and found it helpful. All the best!
Just FYI friends, I signed up for the publishing vault. You can only use the art you download if you keep up your monthly $27 membership. Once you are no longer a member, you can't use any of it for kdp or anything else. They are $67 a pack if you buy them outright. :(
This is incorrect. If you've uploaded to KDP then yes you can keep the books up there. However you may not use the graphics again for any other project. This is stated in the terms. For the quality in the vault...$27 is a no-brainer.
Creative Fabrica and canva pro are both the same and any other PLR store. This is normal. You can not download the whole store to use later and just stop paying.😅
@@huwhughes I demand to cancel my membership. I require a response to the email sent from Daily Prompts, through which I was registered. Despite numerous requests for cancellation, there has been no response.
Hi this is great for sizing however when you are making your book sometimes you can move the margins. So I recommend either keep the little squares on each page until you complete the full design then delete them. Or bring the squares back at the end of the design and double check all your margins by moving the little square to each page. both methods work for me.
Hello Ms. Ivy, I want to say that your tutorial is the best! Thank you because I was able to create my own coloring book because of this video. I am waiting for my coloring book to be approved. 😊
This was a very informative video! You great at showing details and steps. Love this so much. Helped me get over my fear of creating my own coloring books.
I want to thank you because you are more thorough and I can understand you so clearly you ought to be a teacher you do an awesome job God bless you and thank you so much
Thank you for your help. I got so confused about making a coloring book, but you shined the light on a lot of things and I really appreciate it. Thanks a lot!
Hi Ivy I just want to say thank you so much for this information. I followed your directions word for word and was able to create and publish my first coloring book. I appreciate you sharing this information to help others :)
Another useful and inspiring video ! It clearly illustrates each important step and makes it very easy to follow. It helps a lot. Thanks a million for your great effort !
Thank you for your excellent video, which provided valuable information. However, I had a negative experience with The Publisher’s Vault, which you recommended. After choosing not to pursue membership with the $1 24-hour trial, I received an aggressive email threatening to cancel my KDP account, which I don't have. This was surprising and concerning, as I have no intention of selling colouring books or anything similar. It is sad to consider potential members dishonest and have bad intentions. Maybe The Publisher’s Vault should reconsider the trial period approach.
Thank you for your kind comment about my video and I’m glad you found the content valuable! I’m very sorry to hear about your experience and I have contacted Huw @huwhughes who is the owner of the Publisher’s Vault to see if he can provide more context and help resolve your concerns. Thanks!
Hello, I think you are referring to my email which asks you not to use the content as its a trial and what may happen such as having the books taken down. This is for your own protection as I do actively have a team challenging authors who use my content without any rights to the content. EDIT - I can see that the membership was cancelled by yourself. thanks for taking a look.
@@huwhughes Just reading through comments and saw this and I have a question about membership. If I become a member and create a coloring book but decided I only want to create one book do I have to continue to pay membership after the book is published.
@@huwhughes i think your designs and service you provide are awesome! is there a way to purchase design packs outright instead of monthly so that we can keep our books up without violating your terms of service?
I just published my first coloring book with your help. Your training videos are the best. Thank you so much. Is there any video about making cards in Canva ?
I followed your video step by step & it helped with the whole process as I wanted. Other videos weren't helpful at all that I tried before. I'm done publishing & my book is in review. Thank you so much.
I just published my first coloring book on Amazon with your help. Thank you! Your training video is the best! I wondered if you have same kind of training video about creating cards in Canva?
Thank you, Ivy. You are a great teacher. By the way, I would love to see videos on how to use AI, be it in Canva or other apps, to generate images for colouring books. I'm a beginner, I don't have the budget for paid images for now. Thank you.
Thank you for your very kind words and I'm glad you find my videos helpful! Regarding your question on generating coloring books with AI/ Canva- please check out one of my previous videos as it may be exactly what you're looking for :) ruclips.net/video/1N-dI6IuVq0/видео.html Hope this helps!
Thank you so much for your very kind words! Will definitely look to post video tutorials on different Amazon KDP products in the future - stay tuned! :)
This is a great video to get started and it answers so many queries related to Amazon KDP. Thank you so much for this insightful video. Looking forward to publishing my first coloring book.
Hey Ivy your video is the one that many of us were searching since a decade thank you so much for delivering such an amazing content 🥰🤌. All the love to you 💖. Could you please tell me that do we have to pay to KDP for publishing our book ??
Thank you so much for your kind message and glad you enjoyed this video! :) There is no upfront cost that you need to pay KDP for starting - hope this helps!
I love the way how u explain in such simple step by step way that is easily understood by any! And thank you, I just published my first coloring book on KDP, fingers crossed, waiting for the review! You just earned a new subscriber and Good luck with all that you do! God bless you!
Amazon KDP scammed me out of nearly $4000 dollars. They never provided the media promotion that I spent thousands on because Amazon did not accept my book and they knew Amazon did not accept my book. They weren't done they tried to scam me for $1100. to get a copyright that only costs $125. It was all scam.
Hands down!!!You are the best and I subscribed in 1 minute! You're voice is soothing and can be used for children stories just FYI...thank you so much!!
Aww, thank you for your very kind comment and so glad you found it helpful! Appreciate you subscribing as well! Perhaps one day I'll try my hand at reading children's stories :) Thanks again!
Thank you so much for your kind words and support! I also just noticed you sent me something via “buy me a coffee”. So very kind of you! Thank you and much appreciated :)
The best step by step teaching!!!!! May i ask Ivy Hang, when my coloring book is on review, why i am not allowed to publish my next book? Do i need to wait till the first will be confirmed?
Hello Mam. I love your videos and your way of teaching and explaining is very good and i made my coloring book before but with AI now i am watching your this video and with this size... I will tell you when i and a book. I am still watching your video... Thanks..
Excellent video! I really enjoy your presentation style, you do a great job at explaining each step. I am a huge fan of yours. I would be interested to know what you think of advertising on Amazon and/or your experiences with it. Thanks for all your time and effort.
Thank you very much! I'm so glad you like the videos on my channel - appreciate your support :) I've had some experience with advertising on Amazon (results were a bit hit or miss to be honest) but could look into creating a video on that in the future for sure!
@@ivyhang5084 It was approved! Thanks so much. Do you have a video that explains the difference between low content and medium content books on KDP, and what the real difference is? I just published a coloring book, and they gave me the free (bar code?) but I also published a low content prayer journal and they did not give me a free barcode, but they still put a barcode on the book, and they did not bill me for it. So I don't understand what the difference is. Well, I see that on the listing for the "medium content" coloring book I do get sample pages shown on my listing and for the "low content" prayer journal I get no sample pages shown on my listing, nor is my back cover shown. I am working on a mental health journal. Because I am a clinical mental health therapist, it is more than a journal, it is 50% real book! How do I make sure that is not categorized as "low content"? Sorry for the long question. Thanks so much. Glad I discovered your videos.
Thank you so much. I have been trying to do this 38 times now. Many videos, until you step by step thoroughly explained it I did not understand. The covet is not the same as the Interior. 😂
Super helpful, thank you very much! Quick question - when one has the completed Canva file/s - could you upload these to for example Etsy as digital files for sale, please?
Thank you for all the details that are needed to start the project. The step by step guide is amazing! I just have one question, is it alright to use the images from Canva pro account for books or will it create an issue of copy rights?
I was all set to begin with KDP but before I started I did an online search for user reviews. I found an abundance of 1 star reviews for KDP. Most reviewers reported that Amazon had terminated their account and were withholding the royalties. Can you tell me your thoughts on this?
I have certainly heard of these types of situations but I personally have not experienced this. I think as long as you abide by their rules and make sure you don’t have copyright issues etc then generally you should be fine. I’ve also heard of many situations where ppl are suspended but just temporarily so it’s definitely a resolvable situation in most cases. All in all though, kdp is great because it’s one of the few things you could do with no capital investment required upfront (aside from tools needed to create your book). Hope this helps!
When selecting the black & white interior with white paper, do Amazon know that it's a colouring book as opposed to a storybook where the paper wouldn't be suitable for colouring? Do they know the difference and print accordingly? Thank you
Hi Ivy! I appreciate all this great teaching! I am excited to give it a try. However, I am concerned that at 31:46 you toggle that you own the copyright to the demo coloring book but at The Publisher's Vault FAQ: Q: Can I Claim Copyright on Products I Customize? A: While customization is allowed, it does not transfer copyright to you. Can you explain how you can toggle that you own the copyright on the KDP upload doc? Thank you so much!
I loved this video, thank you! I am just going to give it a try, will see how it goes. Does using images from The Publisher Vault allow me to select on Amazon- I did not use AI -and still own your book?
Your tutorial is great in that you take time to go through the margins set up and the term bleed. Now how do I create a coloring book cover when my images do not have color examples to use on the book cover. I have tried "coloring" my black and white designs by using canva paint but arthritis prevents staying in the line and making it appear professional.
Thank you for your kind comment! Glad you found the tutorial helpful. It is always tricky to be able to have the colored images for the cover after you design your coloring book in b/w. You could check out Publisher's Vault (link in video description section) to see if that might be helpful for you -they provided images in both color and B/W - hope this helps! :)
you choose to go to the vult company here is something to take in mind ""An active subscription is required to continue selling the digital products. When your subscription is ended you need to remove the files from your computer and any products you have created that is uploaded and is currently being sold can remain in place"" Subscription is 27 per month. I have sold a few books on KDP and unless your very very lucky you will make that subscription money back, but defenitly not at the beginning... NOT trying to discourage you just trying to be transparent if this lady stops paying that membership she will have to remove her coloring book and delete all files on her computer or she can do a buy out that's usually really expensive to do
The key details have been included in the video description where the link to the $1 trial is placed - hopefully that provides sufficient clarity to those interested in trying it out :)
Great tutorial Ivy and I love those characters. Iwill follow this tutorial to create mine. ?? If I want to publish on more than one publisher should I use the KDP format...is it a standard?they
Hello Ivy! Great tutorial ;). I'm a little confused about margins and bleed. If you are using bleed, why set margins for your work to stay inside of? I noticed this when you were creating the "This book belongs to..." page. You stayed inside the margins...I must be missing something...lol😸

The best step by step teaching!!!!! May i ask Ivy Hang, when my coloring book is on review, why i am not allowed to publish my next book? Do i need to wait till the first will be confirmed?
Hello Mam. I love your videos and your way of teaching and explaining is very good and i made my coloring book before but with AI now i am watching your this video and with this size... I will tell you when i and a book. I am still watching your video... Thanks..
Thank you so much for your kind comment and I’m glad you enjoyed my videos on coloring books!! All the best with publishing a new coloring book! :)
Precise and informative. Thank you.
You are welcome! Glad it was helpful :) Thank you for your support!
Thank you, Ivy. This is very helpful. You’re amazing at teaching step-by-step.
Thank you for such a kind comment! Really appreciate it and glad you found this video helpful! :)
Ivy, you are a fantastic teacher.
Wow, thank you! Appreciate your kind words and support :)
Excellent video! I really enjoy your presentation style, you do a great job at explaining each step. I am a huge fan of yours. I would be interested to know what you think of advertising on Amazon and/or your experiences with it. Thanks for all your time and effort.
Thank you very much! I'm so glad you like the videos on my channel - appreciate your support :) I've had some experience with advertising on Amazon (results were a bit hit or miss to be honest) but could look into creating a video on that in the future for sure!
I love you! I have been struggling with formatting my first coloring book for amazon KDP
I'm so glad you found this video helpful - all the best with publishing your first coloring book!
@@ivyhang5084 It was approved! Thanks so much. Do you have a video that explains the difference between low content and medium content books on KDP, and what the real difference is? I just published a coloring book, and they gave me the free (bar code?) but I also published a low content prayer journal and they did not give me a free barcode, but they still put a barcode on the book, and they did not bill me for it. So I don't understand what the difference is. Well, I see that on the listing for the "medium content" coloring book I do get sample pages shown on my listing and for the "low content" prayer journal I get no sample pages shown on my listing, nor is my back cover shown. I am working on a mental health journal. Because I am a clinical mental health therapist, it is more than a journal, it is 50% real book! How do I make sure that is not categorized as "low content"? Sorry for the long question. Thanks so much. Glad I discovered your videos.
Thank you so much. I have been trying to do this 38 times now. Many videos, until you step by step thoroughly explained it I did not understand. The covet is not the same as the Interior. 😂
So glad you found this video helpful! All the best with your KDP journey :)
Thank you for this very informative video, you walk all of us through out the whole process 🎉❤
You are so welcome! Glad you found the video helpful 😊
I am very grateful for this video
Thank you for your kind words! Grateful for your support :)

Super helpful, thank you very much! Quick question - when one has the completed Canva file/s - could you upload these to for example Etsy as digital files for sale, please?
Thank you for all the details that are needed to start the project. The step by step guide is amazing! I just have one question, is it alright to use the images from Canva pro account for books or will it create an issue of copy rights?
kak spill tempat jual nya di web2 mana aj.... dah mulai tercerahkan ni kak.. tq
I was all set to begin with KDP but before I started I did an online search for user reviews. I found an abundance of 1 star reviews for KDP. Most reviewers reported that Amazon had terminated their account and were withholding the royalties. Can you tell me your thoughts on this?
I have certainly heard of these types of situations but I personally have not experienced this. I think as long as you abide by their rules and make sure you don’t have copyright issues etc then generally you should be fine. I’ve also heard of many situations where ppl are suspended but just temporarily so it’s definitely a resolvable situation in most cases. All in all though, kdp is great because it’s one of the few things you could do with no capital investment required upfront (aside from tools needed to create your book). Hope this helps!
When selecting the black & white interior with white paper, do Amazon know that it's a colouring book as opposed to a storybook where the paper wouldn't be suitable for colouring? Do they know the difference and print accordingly? Thank you
Hi Ivy! I appreciate all this great teaching! I am excited to give it a try. However, I am concerned that at 31:46 you toggle that you own the copyright to the demo coloring book but at The Publisher's Vault FAQ: Q: Can I Claim Copyright on Products I Customize? A: While customization is allowed, it does not transfer copyright to you. Can you explain how you can toggle that you own the copyright on the KDP upload doc? Thank you so much!
best one online! thank you for the help!
Glad to hear that! Thank you so much for your kind words :)
I wish i saw this before publishing. I made all mine two sided :( and one of them has a civer that doesnt teyly match
thank you ivy.., so helpful
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your kind comment 😊
Thank you sooo soo much for this video, its really in detail and very helpful!! thank you :)
Glad you enjoyed this video! Appreciate your kind comment and support :)
I loved this video, thank you! I am just going to give it a try, will see how it goes.
Does using images from The Publisher Vault allow me to select on Amazon- I did not use AI -and still own your book?
Thank you for watching and yes, definitely give it a try! And yes, it does :)
Is this format same as when you're putting together an ebook
Your tutorial is great in that you take time to go through the margins set up and the term bleed. Now how do I create a coloring book cover when my images do not have color examples to use on the book cover. I have tried "coloring" my black and white designs by using canva paint but arthritis prevents staying in the line and making it appear professional.
Thank you for your kind comment! Glad you found the tutorial helpful. It is always tricky to be able to have the colored images for the cover after you design your coloring book in b/w. You could check out Publisher's Vault (link in video description section) to see if that might be helpful for you -they provided images in both color and B/W - hope this helps! :)
Thank you for this, so helpful 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for your comment- Glad you found it helpful! :)
Hey. If I'm doing this kind of a sale, is it necessary that I register my company? If I don't, will that have any consequences?
you choose to go to the vult company here is something to take in mind
""An active subscription is required to continue selling the digital products. When your subscription is ended you need to remove the files from your computer and any products you have created that is uploaded and is currently being sold can remain in place""
Subscription is 27 per month. I have sold a few books on KDP and unless your very very lucky you will make that subscription money back, but defenitly not at the beginning...
NOT trying to discourage you just trying to be transparent
if this lady stops paying that membership she will have to remove her coloring book and delete all files on her computer or she can do a buy out that's usually really expensive to do
Really appreciate the clarification ty
This is correct.
omg does she say this in the video ??
The key details have been included in the video description where the link to the $1 trial is placed - hopefully that provides sufficient clarity to those interested in trying it out :)
@@ivyhang5084 not everyone goes to the details
Great tutorial Ivy and I love those characters. Iwill follow this tutorial to create mine. ?? If I want to publish on more than one publisher should I use the KDP format...is it a standard?they
Thank you for your kind comment! Yes, you can follow this tutorial to create yours to ensure it will follow the KDP format. Hope this helps :)
Hello Ivy! Great tutorial ;). I'm a little confused about margins and bleed. If you are using bleed, why set margins for your work to stay inside of? I noticed this when you were creating the "This book belongs to..." page. You stayed inside the margins...I must be missing something...lol😸
great lecture i learn a lot but still ai was used to remove a loud from the cover picture but author selected no ai in the end
Because it's ai assisted not ai generated 🙏🙏🙏
Is that is free of cost
