Hey Sean thanks for all the great content you put out there. Kudos to you and the team. I am seriously looking into e publishing as a side hustle that could eventually become my full time gig. However before starting I do have a bunch of burning questions that some make the cut on your FAQ list. Any hotline number or email to directly my questions to would be beneficial to move forward : Thanks Sean and connect soon

[@ramongary593]

Thank you very much for honesty and generosity.

[@kevchilton908]

Isn't it great to see a significant influencer and successful entrepreneur state exactly how it is instead of just promising you the earth by following or just buying a course? It's refreshing to see some honest content on here. Thank you 🙏

[@Cheryl_izzy]

So glad I discovered your channel. Its giving me hope cause I'm stuck home 2 years no car and need a way to make money from home.

[@florestawater]

I'm just starting out and really appreciate your honesty, transparency and all the value you provide. thank you!

[@amrs7762]

Thank you for the quality content! It's so refreshing and very useful!

[@despertarestelar7753]

Can’t stop watching your videos 🙏🏼💜 Thank you

[@rainyamosher]

You are a delight, Sean, and I did like the casual sit down style! Excellent mix of visuals/bullet points to help guide the conversation. Thank you for sharing your marketing and sales expertise so openly *and* I appreciate that you speak clearly and auto-CC is pretty dang accurate!

[@juraganposter]

It is never about the product, but always how you sell the product. Interesting!

[@LovelyLifeLessonsKidsBooks]

Thanks for putting out the content,and helping everyone out Sean. Really appreciated 😁 The thing I like the most, is that you always have a positive mindset, that's cool.

[@malissasouza9394]

I love your videos, very easy to follow. Very helpful for a new KDP user, like me. 😃

[@purplebatcave]

I’ve seen all of your videos and this one is by far, my favorite. Loved the relevancy and the new perspective on ads and marketing. Thank you, Sean.

[@Lilieni]

Agreed. I find a lot of value in all these videos, but this one feels extra ..relevant is a good word.

[@simonejury1989]

Thank you, Sean. I have just started to watch your channel, and I have gathered more productive information, than what I have, unfortunately, paid thousands for.

[@informaticaonline5423]

Loved this casual sitdown type of video. Thanks for the great advice!

[@brandonestelle9029]

Absolutely brilliant video!

[@YoshithWeerakoone]

Thanks Sean! Im in progress of taking your advice and developing my first low-medium content book! I intuitively started creating a brand around it because thats how I buy things on Amazon! So glad to hear that sentiment validated! Thank you as always for sharing so openly and honestly about your journey and progress!

[@AgathaKayang]

I find this video helpful, thank you sir

[@EzyTiger123]

Amazing content as always! Thank you!

[@DyanWatson]

I do like and benefit from this type video. Thank you!

[@jamesheppe-smith2324]

Enjoyed the video style, and the content too of course. Thanks!

[@jameskaruga6730]

very practical ideas thanks

[@jolynbranch1211]

Thanks, Sean. Great video, as always!

[@xcellone12]

I really enjoyed the wealth of information you provided. I'm an actual artist/ graphic designer and for years I've wanted to create a picture book for kids. Listening to you while I'm illustrating at the same time. This will be my first book I hope with your advice will lead to my success. I really don't want to use AI to generate images. I want it to be authentic and connect with my audience. I feel great with the advice you gave about quality vs quantity, like creating an original brand that will be associated to my books is important to me and feel people will lean more into that instead of AI generated illustrations. However, I do feel like Chatgpt is great to start the brainstorming sessions if your feeling stuck. I'll keep you posted on my progress, wish me luck! I'm goanna need it! Quick Queston how many pages should a picture book be especially for kids between 2-6?

[@Forexsignalpro]

Sean can you please include an author interview like a podcast?

[@sinjoe6818]

I know, everyone will demand differently - could you raise the volume of the music a notch, please? I love this beat and it gives me this great feeling of freedom somehow. I associate it also a lot with your content and the days when I started out on KDP. Great nostalgia.

[@xyuv6769]

Well this vid just hit me the right spot

[@apriltheInvincible]

Great video, thanks!

[@poetryandpurpose]

thanks Sean keep it up I enjoy and profit from your work

[@luckydougfergus1877]

And yes, like many comments I appreciate the down to earth way that you talk about the marketing process. But I’m not seeing my particular position here. I write humorous books, (I’ve just released my second) I’m like a craftsman. Both of my books took me about 18 months to write, and I’m not concerned about writing them any faster. Because they’re very very carefully crafted like an Elton John song, let’s say. I am my own style and I don’t care about selling millions of books but I would like to sell hundreds or thousands of them. What about humorous fiction already written? How to market that type of book?

[@mojolotto7774]

I need more details on how to do the coloring book. I am stuck working on the Easter coloring book and other coloring books. Need help.

[@ikechukwuokonisa6335]

I like your teachings Sean and keep it up. But please my books were blocked last week so how do I recover them

[@letsfinanceyourfreedom]

Seriously, no bs stuff about kdp.

[@b93rees41]

This was comment #69

[@SvenGeorgiev]

What do you say is the best way forward if you have ONE publishing brand created. What I mean: I dont want to ONLY produce coloring books or ONLY mindfulness stuff. But constantly mixing up what you release on your social handle is going to be irritating for the target group. So one way would be to have your overall publishing brand and then have subbrands that incorporate related niches. But say you do 3 social platforms and you have three subrands - thats a lot of social media work. What would be your advice here?

[@MikiGospel]

Thank you. From Nigeria

[@BatistaInvests]

Hey Sean. Love the Basketball ad. Word of friendly advice. Wear a Kobe Jersey instead. Believe me. People identify with the character, far more than they identify with the team. Love your content

[@SketchNBrew]

I have a question for you. What are some of the pros and cons of using vs. not using your face to build your KDP brand? My current plan is to have my face be the image for my brand to make it more relatable. I’m currently working on a coloring book using an ai/ my own digital drawing hybrid workflow, which I plan on creating tutorials for as a way to also market my coloring book.

[@wagnerpaivafernandes]

I have been doing this for 8 months, 59 high content books, no coloring books stuff, all kinds of themes and categories, all very laboured and meticulously thought. It's not as easy as he makes it sound, it simply isn't. It's actually a pretty hard way to make money. Like any endeavor, one in one thousand make big money, 999 just barely make even. There is no magic trick. I would, however, advise everyone to try, because, why not?

[@Z.Brytel46]

How are your sales doing??

[@bawest4]

I had an Amazon KDP account about 15 years ago when they just began to get big but my account was taken down because of copyrights back then not too many people were aware of any wrongdoing. What could I do to create another account do you have any suggestions? I was told that I could never sell on Amazon again but it happened so many years ago.

[@chakirechakibe4862]

Thank you please vedeo how to creat journal and coloring books

[@nabilzrm_1769]

Make a video about PLR ebooks !

[@TheJW0202]

How do you create a "brand" with KDP when they don't let you put a brand name as the author?

[@sila8219]

Thank you ,you are doing big favour here I want to ask you if i can publish in arabic on amazon kdp or publish a book in diffrent languages ,

[@ChiefTwit-nq7cv]

Sean, is advertising cost the key factor in getting sales? We see always the ads expense of those doing well in kdp and many had high ad expense reported. It is like investing high in advertising gives one more sales. Of course that is taking into account that the product is good enough. Could you please give your advice on this?

[@d.r.carmel]

Wow, this is super 😊

[@sumreenm-q7h]

Please dont ever turn into those seo optimized content creators who do it more for the watch and less about the substance. Keep growing!! 🎉

[@lynxacresb5331]

Do you have a recommendation of where I could buy images for use in POD? Similar to what’s on flaticon? Or would I be better off paying someone to do the illustrations?

[@fadakir_01]

Will ai replace us (kdp publishers) ?

[@factochronicles013]

Can I sell coloring books as well as plannar or low content notebooks with one single kdp account? please explain.

[@JesMarie_W3]

I'd love to save for your course, but the requirement to be on a call with someone is offputting to me. I want to build a digital business for good reasons; one reason being I suffer horribly with social anxiety. My own family has a hard time getting me on the phone. I made it to the part of the the website that said I'd need to do a call to see if I'm a good fit and clicked right back off. I know why it's being done this way (been there, done that), I just wish it wasn't a requirement.

[@SeanDollwet]

[@pawlieblog7967]

I don’t do low content books. Just high content, over 100 pages, on topics that I have an interest in.

[@helengren9349]

& how are sales going? I would like to give it a try ...

[@getkraken8064]

At some point soon, won't readers simply use AI to create the book they want by themselves rather than depending on you to use AI to create it and sell it to them?

[@storiesfromearth-jd58]

Definitely! And you could get it personalized and have your name engraved on the cover, etc. When you design this AI program that does that, be sure and send me a link...I'm interested!

[@diywithlisa7361]

do you have any how to marketing here in your channel?

I thought we couldn’t have more than one account or do you mean author?

[@aphilzitrone]

To get reviews you recommended puby or pupy. Does it work with german books aswell and is this legal?

[@BodyMindSpirit-jd5iu]

Hi Sean, I'm a little late commenting on your video. What *I* like about your presentation "style" (or should I say 'brand", lol) is that you haven't got one. What I mean by that is you are merely being yourself. Your sales "pitch" isn't really a "pitch", instead, you've discovered something that is incredibly valuable and you're sharing it with others. In other words you've done a "facebook" on yourself. Your success is your product. Hats off to you with that (aka kudos, good on you, salutations, etc) Normally a "youtuber" puts a sales slant on their video, whereas your videos are just so blatantly *you* it's not just obvious, it's a breath of fresh air. Now whether you're holding anything back to protect your business practices because capitalism is an economic system based on greed and the world is full of vipers, sharks and jackals, I can't tell, yet. But even if you were, man I wouldn't blame you, there's some seriously 5h177y scumbags out there that think they're 1337. Me personally, I feel sorry for them, 'cos they're already burning in hell and they don't even know what they've done to themselves, 'cos their heads are so far up their own backsides they don't realise what a dark and smelly existence they're existing in. However, my main impetus in commenting wasn't to butter you up, but in fact it was to the contrary. I noticed a very slight inaccuracy in something you said, so I have a mild positive criticism. I like truth and harmony in the world and if I ever come across what I perceive as inaccuracy I'm compelled to correct it. I disagree with what you said about branding being about quality. In a lot of cases that's true, but that's only half of it. The other half is value. And many brands focus upon value alone. In other words their unique selling point is "we're the cheapest". Many brands advertise that point and *are* the cheapest, but more often than not brands that purport to be cheaper or cheapest aren't. They are basically con merchants. Most supermarkets for instance are full of **it. However, my point is quantity AND quality are both very big aspects of branding. Since your video is focused on KDP and aimed at KDP authors, then within the KDP niche it's better to focus upon quality. Having said that, pulp fiction had considerable success with quantity over quality. Sci-fi, westerns, romance, espionage, action, all these genres have "suffered" from pulp fiction success. Whether pulp fiction is forever dead I wouldn't know. As a consumer I've always been in to quality when it comes to fiction. The nearest I ever got to pulp fiction was L Ron Hubbard. My tastes are firmly within *the* Highest levels of quality. And not just reading material. As excellent as the new Dune films are, they're STILL doing it wrong. !!! That's it really. p.s. like I said, I'm glad you're doing what you're doing.

Besides the cost, what more do you get with the Complete Amazon KDP Course that is more than the FREE Masterclass? In other words, is the bang for the Complete Amazon KDP Course worth the buck? If so, could I know 3 reasons why?

[@SeanDollwet]

Instead of me telling you how it’s the best publishing course, you should just try it out since it comes with 6 months money back warranty if you’re not happy with it

this is okay but the amount of money people can really make is not realistic in my view without significant social media following or advertising output...
