@eliok Bossman! I hail o, I just started my Amazon journey. I uploaded some days ago! No sale yet. I'm running a promotion for free purchase today and tomorrow! I'm not sure anyone has bought yet!


Issue is always what to write on, though I outsourced on Weightloss, I hop its gonna be worthwhile!

Just released my fist book 9 days ago.. No sell yet. I managed to get 21 kenp reads through kindle select price promotion scheme. Not what I was expecting, I guess I just have to keep exploring different marketing methods. It's not easy as most people are thinking it is, I'm not giving up anytime soon she. Please gurus in the house, how does a clickable table if content affects sales?? I'm thinking i'd sell more if I have a clickable table of content. Is there any relationship between the two?

eastgates1:

When i told you to go and learn how to write well, you felt it was an insult.
Please what does rhe above mean? By the way what did I steal from you?

eliok:
the best test of a new account is 9 books straight.

I mean different topics and books in the account. If it's not up to nine, that account is nothing.

From that number, you grow up. And I'm not talking about low content
So keep writing.

It's quite some time since I posted here, but let me just say something here.
1. Clickable Table of contents will make your book easy to read for readers and you must make your book clickable so it adheres to the standard.
2. The number of books you have in your account doesn't matter, what matters is the quality of the book content, and presentation (ensure that it is formatted properly according to the nitch standard
3. Before you publish any book, make sure you have provided something that can either educate, entertain or solve a problem.
4 visibility, you must know how to use keywords in your book descriptions, back-end keywords, and other book metadata.
Finally with a quality book cover.
Then you forget it and continue with another book because you can never know the one that will make money for you.
You can still do everything right and still no sale. That's the only logic why you should have more books.
But lucky chaps may have just 3 or 4 and they're already making money from kdp.
The keyword here is don't experiment with books, make sure that it is perfect before you publish. If you can't do it, get professionals to do it after all it is an investment.

Please who knows if one can receive payment from amazon kdp through stripe account and if this requires a domicillary account ?

Wow, thnx for the feedback. I guess I still have a very long way to go. My first book is well above 20,000 words.. I just finished my second book, I'm still learning more about how to market it before releasing it. Writing books is one thing, marketing them is another. My second book is a little just above 10,000 words. Writing is not really an issue for me. But I really need to learn how to take my book to the first page of it's category. May God help us as we help ourselves.�

mocipe:


If i can write as much as you, i'll be a millionaire by now.

trillest1960:

Lol.. Not that easy brother. The writing in itself is not really a severe sales driver. There's a whole lot of apparently insignificant factors that determines weather a book sales or not. A novice cannot understand this all by himself. Trial and error is how I've been learning. I finally made some sells this month. Alhamdulilah!(hope i spelt that right) Nothing much but I'm glad I'm finally coming around. The issue of electricity and constant internet connection is another major challenge for me but I'm still pushing regardless. God bless all of us still trying to make ends meet decently in this Sh!thole of a country .. May we never run out of patience and honesty I pray. Wishing us all terrific prosperity in this forth coming year! ❤❤❤

byrron:


Your drive and consistency will surely see you through.

The truth is this, being successful is a conscious and deliberate effort that comes from the lessons learned after so many trials and errors that didn't break you down.

The end goal is what keeps every successful individual to keep pushing despite the tribulations along the pathways to success.

Do not despair, just keep pushing.

Wishing you the very best in your publishing endeavors.

Glad you made more profit.
I have some books I would love to write on with their BSR 12580, 115475 and more.

Galacious1:

trillest1960:

Lol.. If you write only wen u feel like, a single book might take a year or even more to finish. There's always that benign hesitation whenever it's time to do something we've not done b4 or not very familiar with. I experienced it too. Its called inertia. Your individual will should always triumph. There's no excuse whatsoever for not writing as much as u should. Congrats on your sells!

Galacious1:
well said. A target should be set each month. I write at least 6 books a month.

trillest1960:

six books a month? Man You're trying oh. The most I can do is 3 books in a month. I really need to up my writing game!

eliok:
easy man. I know what you mean. Its step by step. I don't want anyone to think I fell from planet mars.

My first withdrawal was 6k from kdp. Then it keep growing.
I want them to know that I face what they face.

Enof said. I use gen but making space for solar inverter

My inverter will be working next week. And I will install myself. So b4 then , just wanted them to know I didn't start from up, but from down.

Just Gods grace that this kdp works.

eliok:
Our method this period is a little different.

Step 1.
Pray pray pray.
And I'm dead serious abt it.


Step 2.

Choose a short but profitable topic

Message me to get some.


Step 3. Write the manuscript.

I will show you how in a moment

MeeLan:

Am a good writer, but I don't know how to go about this KDP abi Kevin debruyne (Lol) thing.
Please teach me from basics. Am a good learner

eliok:
Please let's share our experience and struggle together. I noticed not much is being said these times.

I'm a young kdp starter. Just 9 months ago. March has been modest for me . just 480$ . not bad though.

My challenge so far?

Due to covid 19,
Kdp publishing has been slow for me.
NEPA has been off for days.

So many challenges.
But I must smile before covid 19 is over.

So share yours and ask questions.

MeeLan:
car batteries don't work with PV system

gadgetplanetng:


They do.

They're just not built for it.

frankycoolbeans:



Good Day & Happy New Year.

Can You Tutor me on KDP?

If Yes; Please drop your contact (phone or email).

Cheers,
Frank!
