Hi Greg, I'm new to this, I tried your word-list, it provide multiples of the same word, what do you recommend

Greg, thank you so much for showing a beginner like me the step by step know how and tips on creating a puzzle book. Your instructions were so easy to follow. I published my first puzzle book today on KDP. So many channels just give vague and general information on how to make money on KDP but do not tell you how to do it. So glad I happened upon your channel. God bless you for sharing your knowledge.

Almost bypassed this video as I'm a subscriber but not new to KDP. Until a couple of days ago had not uploaded anything new for the year and still getting paid every month. That's the beauty of POD.

I am so glad I accidentally stumbled upon this tutorial today. I appreciate it so much that you broke down the line by line instructions on how to use Amazon KDP. I wrote a book - more like typed a word doc on a country I visited last summer. I wanted to publish my experiences and what I learned about the country since there wasn't much info out there on the internet. Even though your video is about word searches, I can still apply the same instructions in uploading my new travel book in the KDP screen. This was when I first started getting experienced with chatgpt as well. I typed up everything myself, I just needed extra help with modifying/editing grammatical errors and such. But once I finished all that, I was like, wait, how do I get this uploaded to Amazon now?! And I've been stuck ever since. Alot of videos I have watched in the past don't break it down like yours does or they skip over steps without any explaining so, once again stuck. THANK YOU SO MUCH. Also, now that I know how to do word searches, I plan to publish those as well :)

I appreciate that! Thank you for taking the time to comment and let me know. It means a lot to hear that. This strategy of KDP is one I’m really excited about so I’m glad you’ve found it. If you guys have any questions just let me know!

[@nicolabrown9887]

@@GregGottfried Thanks so much for your response. I do have a question about setting payment options for KDP since I leave abroad - in The Bahamas to be exact. Our jurisdiction is not included on KDP's list. I've heard about Payoneer as an option. Would you have any information about this or about other options for persons living outside of the listed jurisdictions?

[@GregGottfried]

@@nicolabrown9887 Great question. Love the Bahamas by the way…one of my favorite places I’ve been! Yes I do believe you can use Payoneer. They used to have a US Payment service where they’d give you US banking info to give Amazon. They now have a Global Payment Service and a Marketplace Payment Service if I recall correctly. I’d look into those two to see which one is the correct one, but that should do exactly what you’re looking for 👍

@@GregGottfried Thank you so much. I'm all signed up on Payoneer. I appreciate your help.

Great video; I published my first book today. Thanks to you, sir!

[@GregGottfried]

That’s awesome! Congratulations 👍👍

[@phylagelo]

Such a great video, thank you so much! I might not get any sales but I'm super thrilled with the fact that I just published my own book :) This was the best video I could've possibly watched to guide me through this process and I can't believe it was free! I'm so glad I found your videos, thanks again Greg.

I came across this tonight and new to KDP! Thank you for this easy to follow video and tools!

[@judywilliamson9557]

Thanks so much, Greg! Your explanations and screens are succinct and extremely helpful. I sat through a looong webinar recently that was buy, buy buy our product before we tell you anything, and it totally put me off the concept. I'm very grateful to have found your informative tutorial, and will be watching all your other content too. As a recent retiree, I appreciate this as a positive way to use time and maybe make some extra cash. 😊 I've dusted off the old laptop, as I don't think think the tablet is going to handle it!

[@GregGottfried]

Nicely done! Thanks for the comment too. As you get going, if you run into any questions just let me know 👍

[@GregGottfried]

Also, I agree with you..Those long webinars that are all just a pitch to buy an expensive course always rub me the wrong way too!

Hello Greg - I just wanted to express my heartfelt thanks for the incredible video you created about publishing on KDP. Your clear articulation and the way you presented the information were truly fabulous-it made the entire process of creating my first eBook so much easier and enjoyable! Thanks to your guidance, I’ve successfully published my first eBook, and it’s a milestone I’m very proud of. However, I’d love to take the next step and convert the book into a Kindle format. If you have any advice or resources for that process, I would deeply appreciate it. Thank you once again for sharing your knowledge so generously-it has genuinely inspired and empowered me. Looking forward to more of your fantastic content!

@GregGottfried hi Greg, I really want to make this work, going to buy a computer, any suggestions as to what to start with? Like a 4 GB or 8gb and how much storage space? I talked 2 weeks ago about this, I am disabled and need to start life over. Having a business is a great start. ❤️

as i was attempting this i began to get lazy with checking each page after then i heard u say its better to check now than have a customer complain...no sooner than u said that i came across a easily fixable but bad formatting error LOL. thanks man

@@GregGottfried Hey Greg do you recommend Canva? Can it do everything needed to make the word searches? thanks

[@GregGottfried]

@ great question. I have Canva premium but it’s not ideal for word searches. Book bolt has the puzzle creation software that Canva lacks, and also the exact formatting sizes/file type for KDP. I’ve tried it with Canva is it’s just a whole lot more time consuming. Hope that’s helpful to know 👍

[@SnowydoeBird]

This is so helpful. I’m excited to do this. This will be my third attempt at creating my own business. The Amway business and the drop ship business were not successful. The third time is the charm. 🎉

@@GregGottfried SINCE YOU HAVE OFFERED TO CLEAR SOME OF MY QUESTIONS, I WOULD LIKE YOU TO REMOVE MY IGNORANCE ABOUT THIS LINE OF BUSINESS. I AM IN MY SEVENTIES AND HAIL FROM INDIA. I WANTED TO WRITE BOOKS FOR A LONG TIME ON SOME MATTERS ABOUT WHICH I HAVE SOME EXPERIENCE IN LIFE AND QUALIFICATION. I THEREFORE, VENTURED ON MY OWN AND DABBLED THROUGH ALL THE THINGS YOU HAVE SHOWN IN YOUR VIDEO AND MANAGED TO PUBLISH FOUR BOOKS ON THE KDP SITE BOTH AS KINDLE BOOKS AND PAPERBACKS ENTIRELY ON MY OWN AFTER MAKING COUNTLESS MISTAKES. BUT WHAT I AM TOTALLY IGNORANT OF IS THINGS LIKE HOW TO SEARCH FOR AND APPROACH POTENTIAL READERS OF MY BOOKS. I SHALL BE VERY OBLIGED IF YOU COULD SHED SOME LIGHT ON THIS MATTER. I CANNOT AFFORD TO RUN COSTLY ADVERTISEMENT CAMPAIGNS.
