KDP doesn't allow the creation of magazines, periodicals or spiral-bound books.

@Jungle Scout, I am extremely a newbie wanting to start , I can’t check the sales rank or the no of sales to know if the product is profitable.. unless I buy plans from jungle scout ? Is there a way a beginner can check ?

If you will just check the sales estimate, you can use the JS sales estimator. You can use it for free but for a limited number of times only: www.junglescout.com/t/sales-estimator-v2/

Struggling to create a book that isn’t rejected due to something called bleed. I tried 3 times. How wide do you have to make the design so it’s not rejected. I’m tired of starting over and getting told to stretch the cover for bleed and I stayed inside the red and then outside the red border……HELP

[@SalleyneDesign]

From what I know about Canva and speaking to their customer support, you actually cannot use their images and sell them as-is. You have to change it into your own design in some way by merging elements etc in order to resell.

[@shawnorrific]

Came here to say this! You have to create your own composition with custom art or multiple element pieces from their library.

[@MinReiSakato]

@@shawnorrific so if you choose more than 1 of their elements and arrange them and change the colors, is that considered your own unique design?

[@motherofnerdlings]

You can't take ONE image and sell it as is. Making a composition is different

[@SalleyneDesign]

@@motherofnerdlings Correct. But in this video compositions weren’t created lol. A composition would have been multiple images and/or elements PER page of the book. U can’t put 1 unaltered image per page like that. Canva is pretty picky with their rules believe it or not. I went back and forth with them for specific answers, and trust me, even when you use the images/elements, they have to be combined into a new design.

[@SalleyneDesign]

@@MinReiSakato as long as it’s more than 1 element. Even taking 1 element and just changing the colors is not considered a new design to Canva support. So if u take multiple elements and/or images and combine them into a new design, then you’re good.

I was scammed by over $3000 dollars by Amazon KDP Publishing. They advertised to put the book on amazon for $799. After submitting the book, Homoexternicus, The Direction of Man, they transferred me to the promotion department and they wanted $4,500 to promote it on Amazon. We agreed to $2,700 and I paid it. The book never appeared on Amazon with them giving me different excuses. Ray Davis was the agent.

[@HillaryEngland-k9o]

@@junglescout I really love your videos!!!😁I`m speechless😶 about how much you know

[@MartyYokawonis]

As an artist and a book creator all my own created images are owned solely by me and thats copyright ownership. If somebody on kdp rips off my images for their 7 minute book creations I would raise hell with Amazon & KDP and they would probably lose their account. I had an image I created digitally on another online selling site and it was pulled off because of the title and the image I created related to a company's product. I also got a cease and desist email from the company itself. So copyrights carry weight. You shouldn't encourage people to ripoff others artwork. Even if somebody downloads and tries to use as their's a piece of line art they need to alter it significantly to defend it as their own creation in order to resell it. Plagarism is also a copyright infringement.

I did my first couple of low and medium content books and I have to point out, the thing with the pink frame (not allowed to get there) is wrong. I thought that first, too, stayed within the pink frame and ended up having my first sample print of a notebook with a pink frame around! So, yes, get to the OUTSIDE lines of the pink frame on the template. If I could post a photo I could prove it to you. Talking about the cover here.

[@junglescout]

Thanks for sharing this!

[@pat4005]

You simply needed to delete the pink frame after you were done using it as a guide. Anything you left visible will print. I don't understand why you think his example in the video of using the pink guide was wrong, because you did not delete it when you were done with it, and you uploaded it to Amazon KDP along with your book file. That is obviously why the book printed with the pink guides.

[@buildingmentalmuscle]

Great video, lots of good valuable actionable content, thanks! 😀 However, there is one thing I need to highlight/mention/clarify/correct. At the 9.55 minute mark in the video you speak of royalty rates. 70% and 35%, based on the selling price. This is correct BUT only applies to ebooks, not print books. Print books pay 60%, no matter what the retail price. And since the example you are showing is a coloring book (which cannot be published as an ebook), I think it's important new publishers know this, otherwise, they may be unnecessarily pricing their book at $9.99 or under in the false premise they are getting a higher royalty.

[@theverseshed]

The majority of KDP upload tutorials feature just two main themes . . . "Make money/live the life you want" - and/or - "Low/medium content books." Try searching for KDP toturials/demos etc. featuring HIGH content books (novels, poetry, scripts, non-fiction, DIY, Hobbycrafts etc. etc.) and you'll find yourself in a desert of almost nothing. There ARE a few, but the ones I've found either have unintelligible narration or muddled presentation. Even those who upload really excellent walk-throughs of KDP protocols and procedures virtually never feature high content books. It's always those same two themes I listed at the start. I'm currently working towards uploading and self-publishing a high content book so, once that's done, I'll make a note of what I've discovered (as a newbie to KDP) and then make a quick upload for my channel.

[@carriebartkowiak]

That's because those aren't called "high-content books". They're novels, poetry books, non-fiction books. There's an ocean of tutorials out there, just use the right terms. "How to publish my novel on kdp," "publish a poetry book on kdp," "how to write non-fiction," etc etc etc.

[@junglescout]

Thanks for jumping in for us! 🧡

[@theverseshed]

@@carriebartkowiak That's pretty well the point I was making. However, I wanted to be fair, so I gave your suggestion a try, and almost without exception, the results narrowed down to picture books. Obviously, a story book for children can easily be a picture book (I follow Jules Marriner who has a brilliant channel for that genre and just look at the books by Oliver Jeffers). I tried 'how to publish a novella for children on KDP. That had almost the same result. Indeed, quite a few videos for any genre of children's book actually proved to be just walk-throughs of 'how to upload.' One good point would be that in terms of publication procedures, there seems to be no real difference because everything boils down to a PDF of the text and a flattened PDF of the cover. However, for genres such as, say, scripts, comic-style storyboards, poetry, interactive books etc. the importance of font choices, setting up your word processor page settings to match book sizes and formats etc. all come into play. Those are the areas I've been thinking about for my own project. As for the best walk-through's of uploading that I've settled on as being really helpful (for me) Bethany Atazadeh's was densely informative (I took 2 pages of notes): kzbin.info/www/bejne/nprIea2trb-Lack and Craig of SPE covered most of the same information but with a couple of additional tweaks: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fovXl4Opn92HbZY As I said, I'm keeping notes of my own experiences with a high content book for children. I'll filter out all those that are common across all genres, and will then make my own brief video in which I'll try to at least fill in a few of the blanks for those who are interested in publishing for that genre.

[@FrenkTheJoy]

So many of the KDP tutorial videos I've seen are like 10 minutes of hard-to-understand tutorials for how to generate a word puzzle on a separate website but then zero info about how to even construct the book, royalty info, how to make the cover, how to decide how much to charge, advertising, etc. I think the REAL money is actually in making tutorial videos.

[@theverseshed]

@@FrenkTheJoy That last point is a very good one. I focused on (at the most) 3 tutorial videos that helped me complete my first KDP project. I soon realised that almost all others covered exactly the same content and it was just a matter of finding those who had structured their tutorials so that everything was sequenced and clearly explained.

A good review. He makes it easy for sure. That 392 sales/mth in the first year is good if it continues to grow, but with royalty only $1.00 or less, per book, less taxes, than @$392.00 a month… don’t give up your day job. Good side hustle. The idea is to have multiple books doing this. Not so easy but over time, possible. Good luck y’all.

[@pureinspiration123]

That's the most significant aspect of it - you publish the book once and it continues to slowly generate revenue over the years. Then you can scale up to 10, 20 or even 100 books. It may take a few years to get there, but eventually, it will snowball into enough income to quit your day job for good.

[@junglescout]

That's a great perspective! 🧡

[@FrenkTheJoy]

I appreciate that he said $392/month. Most of these "make your own KDP book" are like "MAKE $20,000 A MONTH" and that's like... no way. I would bet Stephen King doesn't make $20,000 a month with just one book, and he's not a brand-new author who's only making word search puzzles on amazon.

I have a question about royalties and profit margins. If you price a book between $2.99 - $9.99, do you get 70% royalties regardless of how much it costs to print the book? Because you are not printing the book yourself, you don't need to think about production costs. How can you estimate what Amazon would need to spend to produce it to achieve the desired quality of finished product?

[@junglescout]

This article may help: kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help/topic/G8BKPU9AGVZSF9QF

The 70% and 35% royalties are for ebooks. You have to look at what the cost of printing is to see what a print book makes, typically a lot less. Amazon will give you this info when you create your book.

Can you offer a video including grids in formatting? I am working on a workout/ diet journal. Thank you.

[@junglescout]

Great idea! I'll forward this to our Content Team to see if they can create a video about this.

I'm an artist & want to start making these types of books to sell on Amazon. But my question is, if I upload my own original art how easy will it be for others to steal my artwork? Or would I have to fight something like that if it does happen?

I was thinking about getting into KDP and discovered your channel. I have a question about the Amazon account that I will be selling from - can I enter my personal bank account information now, when I am just starting and don't know if I am going to earn any money, let alone how much per month, and then change my personal to a business bank account if I get a steady monthly income flow? I do have a purchasing account. Thanks.

[@junglescout]

Yes, you can.

[@blusole]

the link for the interior design does not work, is there another website that we can use instead. thanks

True. Have you ever tried publishing Non-Fiction Books? Are much more profitable in the Short, Mid, and Long term. We've books published almost 4 years ago that still generate money..

[@richlovn539]

Great work and info! Thank you!

[@iamtb9]

Great content!! I am just a little confused as to: is this an ebook or will it be printed (hence paperback)? also will Amazon take care of all the printing and shipping to the client? and is that price all included in 'Fees'? Also, can we use art drawings from google or other sites in our books?

[@junglescout]

Currently, it's digital and will be printed and shipped on demand. There's no physical product till an order is placed by a customer. Everything is included in your price and fees. You will want to make sure you are not using copyright or licensed images.

[@iamtb9]

@@junglescout Thanks for the reply! Got it. So Canva's free elements are ok, right? Also in Categories do we choose 'Large-print book (content is 16-point font size or greater)' or we just don't choose anything?

[@junglescout]

As for Canva's free content, I recommend reviewing their terms here: www.canva.com/policies/content-license-agreement/ You can either print a large print version or the regular one separately. However, please do note that it may affect the number of pages due to font size, so this is something that needs to be considered.

Hi Nikita, we are using the Jungle Scout Extension to view the sales and other data of the product. 😊

[@prateekagraw]

Royalty is 60%...not 70....just shows how much real-life experience you actually have doing this.

[@junglescout]

Thanks for bringing this to our attention! We'll definitely check it out!

[@concordep2504]

You don’t really get 60% royalties you get that minus the printing costs which you pay out of your share of the money received so depending upon the actual printing cost you can end up with net royalties of 25-30,

[@prateekagraw]

@@concordep2504 Yes I meant 60% of "remaining" amount. Of course you bear the printing cost 100%. This guy is advertising 70% which is completely false and they are more interested in making YT videos and get clicks than give any real-world experience.

[@moneygrowz]

@@prateekagraw dude. Did you make the video. Appreciation goes along way. Hes not GOD. SMH 🤦‍♂️

[@junglescout]

@@prateekagraw You're absolutely right, Desi, I accidentally used the eBook royalty rate (70%) rather than the paperback royalty rate (60%) in this example. However, the same logic applies, and when scouting low/medium content paperback niches, you'd of course want to use the accurate rate per book type. Thank you for bringing that our attention 😀I hope you still found the video useful and can use it help identify potential opportunities! - Jake

I made a family activity book, it includes coloring pages for all ages, writing practice pages, and puzzles

Very useful video! Thank you! I am beginner and wondering: should we determine the type of paper for cover or inside pages for KDP and how to choose the price according to?
