    Thank you Chris for making these videos and being real. When i say real, you're giving us the information straight forward and really diving into every corner of the processes, unlike other youtubers, they make a flashy video thumbnail with click bait words and don't really mention EVERY thing. So thank you for giving us the real information without sugarcoating, or beating around the bush.

    I am usually a skeptic when it comes to KDP Ytubers. This is a rare well presented honest approach and information is solid 🪨 Going to rewatch later. Thanks man!

    Great advice Chris. I am a sucker for keeping an ad going for too long, or not giving up on a book when it doesn't get good sales in the first 2-3 weeks.

    Thank you so much. I think this was exactly the video I needed right now. I hit a growth curve similar to that one you have after 11 days and I have kind of panicked about things going wrong but I'm much better off than I thought; your case study is really really helpful

    I have a seasonal book. I did ads as soon as it went live. Ranked third on first page (for 3 different key phrases). Sold a few hundreds. Season over, sales stopped.

    Awesome ! Thank you, great video! Quick question - how do you see what keywords Amazon is choosing to use in auto ads?

    Very helpful. Thank you! Do you also launch eBooks following the same patter, i.e., with ads?

    Chris As always excellent information and excellent strategy. I have been following you for more than 2 years and I am always thankful to you for giving actionable information.,Looking forward to live Zoom calls you hinted earlier. Looking forward to your bonus for the 18th launch of math…. You know what I am talking about LOL. Thank you Chris

    Thanks, Chris. Love your videos. One question I'd like to see answered in some of your upcoming videos is, when running ad campaigns for your launch, is it better to focus on just a few main keywords that are the most relevant? Or spread your budget out over more keywords, and include keywords which are relevant but aren't the "main" keywords for your book?
    Or do you just run auto ads and let Amazon figure it out?

    Are you available to be hired for mentoring?

    • @ChrisRaydog
      @ChrisRaydog  Год назад +3

      Hi Zombie - so the short answer is: no. Longer answer is: I'd like to pursue this when I feel even more confident in my teaching abilities to make it worthwhile for people.
      Saying that, I am kind of doing a tester group call session very soon -- and while that is not exactly mentoring, it will have similar aspects, so look out for that with the release of the new software soon

      "Babygator". I have several book ready to be published but want to have an Advertising game plan down before then.
      I will continue to make/have made more books until your trail program is ready. Thanks.

    I make $4k a month and have never done a decent launch. All of my books are evergreen.

    My last book Amazon placed me at BSR 400k and after 6 weeks it moved to 1.6 M so the honeymoon stage is absolutely correct.

  • @ale-nk2om
    @ale-nk2om Год назад +3

    I have a question, after the 2 weeks of launch, do you reduce the budget of ads or the bid or both? Anyway, you are amazing, really bro, i understood and learned more things in 4 your videos than in a entire course

    • @BeastbattleOG
      @BeastbattleOG Год назад

      That’s question I want to ask too. Just to add my question. After the launch period, what campaign bidding strategy do you use? Dynamic bids down only or up and down? Are you reducing the bid and budget too? After auto ads during launch period, then you you create manual exact keywords only? Or you do broad keywords and phrases keywords too?

  • @Wisdom_Above
    @Wisdom_Above Год назад

    Thanks Chris. Are timed launches good for children's math workbooks where you might create seasonal 'extension' packs with Christmas, or Halloween specific themes and designs alongside the evergreen workbooks that seek to fulfil one academic years' worth of curriculum material?

  • @sammy3207

    How do you monitor keyword rankings/performance? Is that something KDP shows or is it a software/program you have?

  • @davinschuurmans8892
    @davinschuurmans8892 Год назад +1

    I have a question .. when you launch the book in the first few days amazon will describe in the book not in stock yet . Are going to spend on ads after that period?

  • @deanm9652
    @deanm9652 Год назад +1

    What's your opinion on author names being brand names vs real sounding pen names? I made 118 books both paperback and hardcover versions under 11 brand names. I'm hearing now I should of made all my author names real sounding and that my account would eventually get banned. Should I go back and unpublish those books? Thank you sir.

  • @planetaryPoem9
    @planetaryPoem9 Год назад

    When you say ‘spend’ do you mean high bids or high budget?

  • @mrc7593

    Chris - how do you check the organic sales against the ad sales. I’m confused about that. Where do you look?

    • @Andrea-px3ss
      @Andrea-px3ss Год назад +2

      Total sales minus ad sales. Amazon doesn't explicitly report organic sales.

    The software you are beta testing......is there going to be an option to get all of the software in one program? Do you know?

    • @ChrisRaydog
      @ChrisRaydog  Год назад

      Can you explain that further?

    • @kelleyerway649
      @kelleyerway649 Год назад

      @ChrisRaydog Sure! :) I clicked the links in your description to the software for building different types of books. I'd rather just pay once for all of it. Is that an option, or would I need to buy each program individually?

    It all ads up real quick $$. Organic sales is where its at... Good luck finding a profitable niche!
