Hello, Latin writer here. I do it in Spanish. Thanks for your video. Question: do you think that KDP Select will be of any use to me in the long term? Should I unsubscribe if I'm already buying ads? All the best.

I've been selling short stories on Kindle and released my first novel back in April (I write under D.W, Nathan). I've been looking for the best practices for selling books, and I have to say this video was a breath of fresh air. It's very difficult to find good information on how to sell a self published novel. There is more solid, clear info in the first 4 minutes of this video than 100 different websites and facebook groups. When I first released my novel in late April, I had some god sales and lots of readers on KU. Summer has been a slog, though. I can't tell you the relief I felt hearing you say that summer is typically a slow time. It's a great reassurance to know that it's not just me. As someone who writes his own novels, edits the novel, designs the cover, and markets the book, it's such a great help to come across a channel like this. My marketing plans are scattershot at best, so any guidance is such a help!

Thank you for all the info! Also you mentioned Canva and let me just say if it weren't for Canva I wouldn't have done three books in three weeks. You just search for a design pack and think of a short story that would go well with it and boom you're done before you know it. Btw your eyes are gorgeous.

Dane, starting a KDP business in 2024. I have tried in the past and wasted time and money. I chose the wrong niche and subniche. So if you were me, and wanted to maximize this business where would you start? What category, what niche, what sub nice? What type (low, medium, high)? I cant make the wrong decision again.

@SaiyanShinobi2 жыл бұрын
80% of your success will be based on 20% of your efforts. Conversely, 80% of the startup for KDP is easy as hell. The other 20% is based on how you tell people to sell. If you plan on just waiting for Amazon to feature your colouring books, you'll be waiting for years. I only have 37 books posted. only 3 sell, once in a while. I don't do anything to sell them though. Some of it is luck, but just posting and waiting is a bad strategy for any business.

In a way, definitely. Fiction is a different animal in the self publishing world and requires more of a 'following'/'audience' a lot of the time to do well.

You'd have to manually ship it to them using the "author copy" feature in KDP. I'd recommend sticking with PDF's manuscripts of your book if you're going to be sending people copies of your book for free.

Well... Whats your cover look like? Title? What is your keyword? If there are no buyers, you are not going to get impressions.
