      In your video you said there wasn't a lot of competition, but it feels like there is. There are so many people trying to do KDP. Hopefully 2024 is a good year for KDP! I do have a question: are Niches like weight loss, etc. Oversaturated at this point? What are some niches to just avoid?

    • @theblogauthority
      @theblogauthority 9 месяцев назад +1

      I have been a professional blogger for 20 years. 90% of bloggers do exactly what you did.. which is why they don't succeed. They start a blog and if the money isn't instant they give it up. Any business requires an investment of your time. Very few businesses are an overnight success. Make up your mind to succeed.. and DO NOT give up until you do!

    @richsadowsky8580 9 месяцев назад

    Made it to the end. The one statement that worried me was, "go deep, not wider." Why? Because my experience and expertise is unique in its width without necessarily having multiple levels of depth. I am reevaluating my topic lists and considering how to create more depth for some topics. Other topics already have depth, a brand, and an evergreen supply of books related to the brand. This is my first book to be published so I will at least start with a deep topic. Great video Sean. I took notes (I'm an old man).

    • @theblogauthority
      @theblogauthority 9 месяцев назад

      I have been a professional blogger for 20 years.. so I think I might understand why he would say that. In blogging.. those who choose ONE niche and cover it thoroughly are much more successful than those who try to cover multiple niches and never really cover any of them thoroughly enough to be successful.
      If you have a book in one niche that is doing well.. publish more books in the same genre. Hopefully, those who enjoyed your first book might also purchase the others. After you feel you have exhausted that subject.. come up with another niche in which you feel you could again create multiple books. I would think that might be a much better strategy than trying to do research on 20 different niches and then creating 20 different books in all those different niches.

    THANK YOU.... I have long been perplexed by how to be successful at this. I have an EXTREMELY underperforming book on Amazon now and will find a way to make it my first using this method. Question: Should I take if off and start over? I literally have no sales to speak of over three years. It is a non-fiction spiritual/inspirational 30-day Reflection book with photography. It is expensive to produce, so it sells for $20. I think I have good reviews (14 or 15). I just feel I need a reboot, relaunch, reworking.

    I'm almost certainly going to join Royalty Hero but I do have one question about this video. I have 2 med content activity books that have done well. One is a kids maze book and one is a large print word search. On average I've been selling about 8 copies a day but during the holiday season closer to 20/day. But when I saw in this video that you can start with ads for as little as $3/day, it makes me question things. I get very little impressions unless I'm up in the 0.75 per click range. Word search, coloring books, puzzles, mazes-- they've all become so competitive that $3/day sounds like it's advice from a different time. And groups that I'm a part of all complain of the same thing: Amazon Ads have become really expensive. Of course, I could be doing it wrong and if your Ads training in Royalty Hero can get me on a less expensive track, that would be awesome!

    I'm a relative "new comer" to KDP during 2023. About 12 - 13 of my books sold fairly well during December in the U.K. and here in the U.S. as long as my bid rate was up around 60 cents. My orders for the month totaled a whopping 82 !! However, I don't have the financial capability to keep that bid rate going any longer. (I seriously sacrificed to do that high of a rate during December, but I needed to see if my books would be appealing enough to sell.) Obviously, they are. But after I've lowered the bid rate now, I'm getting less sales. I do realize that the pre-Christmas surge in consumer buying helped me tremendously. I've seen multiple, varied suggestions for how to keep sales ongoing, but I'm very limited financially at this point. Any other ideas? (I'm not very adept at social media.)

    So ghost writer is $3.79 per 100 words and the standard non fiction book is 150 pages or 30,000 words, that means it costs over $1k per book. Is there any type of book that would be cheaper requiring less pages but have the same impact or market to create? Should we build towards high impact books and in the meantime focus on low to mid books, journals in the meantime?

    Great content; thanks!
    2 quick questions:
    (1) Do you think it’s risky to publish a book that’s written by AI such as ChatGPT? I mean, AI is not perfect, and it might produce some info that’s not factually correct, and that could hurt the publisher’s credibility and might even result in a lawsuit. Should written books only be written by human writers then?
    (2) When using Facebook groups or services such as Pubby to request for reviews, do you use your real name? Or pseudonym(s)?

I am home challenged but i can come up with 200 bucks per month. The problem is the service you have will not offer that option to me. I have been off- grid for years which i believe is the reason. At any rate, if that 200 dollar per month can happen im in. Any ideas?

    QUESTION: recently hired someone on fiverr to create my first coloring book. The gig said that it would create the interior and cover. Now that it is due in two days, they sent me an offer for. Formatting, which is more cost of course. I was told that it would be ready for upload when it was done from the first gig. What is happening? Is this normal for me now to have to pay? Additionally, for formatting? Thank you. I really appreciate your teaching.

    My activity book for adults is launching in a few days. I want to get reviews. I’ve looked at services but thinking of posting on my neighborhood FB forum offering a free book on which they can provide an Amazon review if they wish to do so. Is this against Amazon’s rules? Since it’s an activity book, I think it needs to be to provide the actual printed book vs a PDF. Thoughts?

    Thanks for your amazing videos. I would like to ask some questions can I publish two activity books at the same time. It looks like pubby is for high content books and how to get reviews for low or activity books.
    I really appreciate your feedback.
