No, sorry, I meant payment details. You know you always know what would be paid into your payoneer account on the 29th of the month by the 21st.

I remember you told me you recently just integrated your Amazon account with your payoneer account, so maybe from next month you will start getting notifications.

I Am Going to Publish 7 Books in The Next 7 Days


Last year, on this same thread, I said I was going to publish 10 books in 10 days.I didn't achieve my goal, cos I was burnt out at 5 books. But I believe I can publish 7 books in the next 7 days.

Ofcos, people discouraged me the last time, and I know they would do the same this time too. But, we are all different. I have an attention/focus problem, and this is the best way I can to this. I type very fast, and the ideas are already in my head, so I know I can do this.


So...Here we go. I want to start the first book right now, and I should have it up in the next four hours or so. I wont say anything about the genre's of the books or their titles till I am through. 30th of September is not far away.


7 Books in 7 Days...#LetsGo!!!

@kay... That goal is very achievable. I have written a 12,000 words book in 24 hours with alot of break too.... Just be focused and determined

Whoa!!! Thanks for this comment. Now I am more motivated. 12 thousands words? Whoa! Anyway, I just took my first break. I am at 1,000 words right now. Back to work.

Okay. First book is done...I am editing it right now. Sallah celebration might get in the way, so I might upload it late, but I would most definitely upload it today.

#SevenBooksInSevenDays

@Kay.... Congrats man..... Keep it going. Am still building motivation to go for my 40 books in October goal.

Thanks. Men! Your goal is very motivational. I wish you all the best with it.

Ready to learn and implement. I hope I am not late here sha....

@Kay2000

Are you sure that's a good idea? The quality of those books might be in question, you know. Not trying to discourage, just looking out for my friend

@godmother.. I doubt it. I have a kindle book that took me 2 weeks to write, but am still yet to make 3 figures from it. I have other books that I wrote within 24 hours that still bring in sales until now. What am tryna say is, you can write a quality book in a short period of time. As long as you have researched and written out your outline before writing. How has sales been for you so far
I need to focus more on advertising and ranking my books for now.

Hmmm..ok
For me sales has just been there o, no serious sales, just the usual one and two sales . I'm also looking at promoting

@mk82,

Which is better for a beginner between kindle countdown deal and free promotion?

[quote author=mk82 post=19204979]Hello, I am opening this thread to create a meeting point for people who are publishing books on Kindle –Amazon’s Direct Publishing Platform. Those who want to learn about it are also welcome.

I’ve been on KDP for over a year now and I can honestly say it is the most convenient way to make money on the internet. It has more advantages than any other online money making system that I know (I know what I’m saying). Started internet business in 2009 and I’ve done almost everything, Adsense, Adsense domain, blogging, CPA, affiliate marketing, article writing and more.

Kindle will not make you rich overnight but IT CAN MAKE YOU RICH. I love it because it is a set-it-and-forget-it system. Once your books are up, you do not have to do anything again. Amazon will publish it, market it and send you your monthly payments for life and I really mean for life. The books I put up in 2012 are still generating sales up till today.

I uploaded my first book middle of June 2012 and another one a week later. My sales that month were $151 in the USA marketplace and £9 in UK and I have not stopped since. Now I have close to 30 books in the system. They would have been more but there were some challenges on the way – all of which we have overcome as of now. (By the way I had 11 Adsense websites up till 2012 but I had to let the hosting expire because I discovered KDP).

I have books that sold more than 400 copies in one month (at $2+ profit per sale) and some that only sold a few. However, it has been an interesting journey and we are still going on. I started by doing most of the work by myself but later moved into outsourcing.

I have searched on Nairaland and I am surprised that people are not talking about Kindle publishing. If you have been struggling to make some cash online, this may be the thing that will give you your first taste of success.

Kindle publishing is completely legal, you will use your real names, no changing of IP address and your money will be sent to you here in Nigeria.

If you are ready to do the work and get good books into the KDP system, the rewards are truly tremendous. I sleep and wake up to check the number of people that have bought my books in countries I have never been to.

QUICK TIPS
One thing I like about Kindle Publishing is that no one can swindle you – no apologies to our so called Naija information marketers.

I am going to make a few more points before we continue. If I get a lot of responses on this thread, we are going to have an interesting journey together.

1) Get Ready To Do Some Work. Kindle publishing is not for people who are not ready to work. If you do not have money to outsource the books, you must be ready to research, write, format, design covers and upload all by yourself. Even if you have the cash of outsourcing, you must cross-check every material carefully before uploading to KDP.

2) Be Patient. You can make some good money with your first book but it is not always so. I usually advice beginners to go for 5 books at the start. The internet marketing world is filled with people who want to make $1000 overnight. No matter how good the system you are using is, time is needed to perfect your skills and make the system work for you. At the end of the day the rewards will be tremendous.

3) Don’t Cut Corners. In the IM world, we have what we call White hat, Grey hat and Black hat. I am happy to tell you that KDP is totally WHITE HAT. You cannot cut any corners. If you mess with them by trying to upload stolen materials, you will be banned (Some of you may remember the Adsense Domain Mass banning). Of course, they will give you the chance to defend yourself but since you will not have any proof, your account may be suspended.

PS- You don’t need to play any tricks with KDP. If you do it right, you will be greatly rewarded. There are many stories I can tell you. There was a particular book I uploaded around September 2012. It was selling the normal 30 to 40 copies per month. Suddenly in December, the sales picked up and it continued up till March this year with the lowest month bringing in about 259 sales.

4) Your Income Is Guaranteed. Once your book is uploaded, you will continue to get paid as long as it sells. All the work you will do is at the beginning then you continue to have recurrent income.

5) You Do Not Have To Do Any Marketing. I have books in various genres and no external

@mk82,

Free promotion still gives me good results and that's what I recommend. I usually set 1-3 days free promo for new books. I did not get impressive results with kindle countdown deal when I tested it with some books last year.
