      PLEASE advocate against mindlessly taking SSRI prescriptions. Seeking mental health is a gateway to this pharmaceutical industry cash cow, because healthcare providers are paid based on prescriptions. All school shooters were prescribed SSRIs. Something is off.

    This is a wealth of knowledge!
    It’s difficult to follow EVERY THING you shared.
    I’m a newbie I guess so still lots to learn.
    The first step I think I need to know is how to create a book from the PDF file to be an ebook. Kindle book.
    One step at a time I’m moving forward.
    Thank you for your great content…

    • @MyFreedomEmpire
      @MyFreedomEmpire  2 года назад

      Thanks so much! And yes, it can be hard to fit things into a very short video while still trying to give lots of details.
      Yes, the first step is creating the ebook. Download the Kindle Children's Book Creator program (it's free). Upload your manuscript file and it will convert it into a MOBI file which is what you need to upload into KDO to create a Kindle listing.
      It took me a few goes to work out the software - I may actually do a separate video on that.

    Hello, fellow KDP author/illustrator! Congratulations on your book. I also write/illustrate children's books through KDP and started doing book readings on RUclips for exposure purposes of the books. I was wondering if you market your book this way as well or not? Have you read your book in classrooms/libraries or sold in person?

  • @zainfadi7953
    @zainfadi7953 2 года назад +3

    I was following your kdp videos, so it is interesting to see that you are writing children's books. Are you not doing kdp anymore? Is the Passiv profit from that enough for you, and now you want to focus on children's books? How would you compare the two? I started with kdp but it is frustrating because I feel like I have not much control over my books' sales and how they are found. When you talk about children's books it seems like you are way more in control of marketing them. Is it because there is less you can do to market kdp books (because of the different niches), or is bit because your books can be easily found with high search keywords and low competition? (which I doubt, right? ) how come no one talks about marketing kdp books externally (like with book sprout)
    Thanks for the content, you are definitely my number one channel for publishing books! 💕💕

    • @MyFreedomEmpire
      @MyFreedomEmpire  2 года назад +2

      Thanks so much! My children's books are still published through KDP, same as my low content books and I'm still publishing low content books as well as creating children's books too. I don't feel like children's book are any easier to get sales for. In fact, it's probably harder. No matter what kind of books you are creating you will have to find ways to market them. There are more avenues for you to be able to give away free books in return for a review with high content books because they can be read digitally whereas low content books are only useful in physical format so that's probably the only advantage a children's book or high content book has over low content books.

    Thank you for this. I’m worried that I don’t have a following to promote to. You sent a newsletter to your RUclips followers? Do you have any recommendations about who a smaller unknown would notify people about a book launch without a huge following or any email list? I suppose I could run Facebook ads to try to get eyes on the book??

    • @MyFreedomEmpire
      @MyFreedomEmpire  2 года назад +1

      I didn't have a following when I published this book, it was my first book. I didn't notify anyone who subscribes to my RUclips channel because they follow me to learn how to self-publish books, not buy children's books from me. The things I talked about in the video are the things that I did. I didn't run any ads, just paid for some newsletter promos and rand a free promo on Kindle.

    Hi, I have just finished my 1st. Children's story book. It is 32pps and will be the first of many books in a series. Each book is about the worldly adventures of Bella, a little dog that travels the world meeting new friends & having exciting new adventures with them. As this is my 1st book I am not sure what to do with Amazon or how much to charge. What are your thoughts please.

      KDP has a free program called Kids Kindle Book Creator. Just download that, take your file that you have for your paperback version, pop it in that program and it coverts it to Kindle format for you.

      @@MyFreedomEmpire Thank you for suggesting this program. Does it work at converting both paperback & hardcover books? I think a children’s board book would be considered hardcover. I haven’t tried this program yet but I’m hoping it converts the PDF file into kindle format automatically without us needing to do any technical stuff.

    I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do you determine what day your book is launching? I understand with KDP you submit it and it will be available within 72 hours. Do you publish in the newsletters and not submit the book in KDP until 72 hours before your launch date?

    i have already asked about this under another video of yours but i guess you've had a lot of questions to answer at that time.
    The thing is, i have purchased the Hand Drawn Maze Software as well as it's Pro and Premium upgrade. I did this by using your link underneath the video and i have not received your keyword list via email yet. I don't know if i did anything wrong or if i had to contact you personally after buying the product.
    I would really appreciate an answer and hope you have a grate weekend.
