Excellent video Dane! Well done and a great 5 Step plan. As mentioned, the first 30 days are critical. Most aim for the short term with a profit mindset, but it’s investing both time and money (and usually at a loss) for the first 30 days that will provide the long term passive income that will far outstrip that initial investment. It’s so hard to do, but just so important.

I’m starting out in low content to hopefully save enough to pay for your course and for my first non-fiction book release, so I want to do it the right way. But you can’t really give away low-content books on free booksy though since they don’t really have actual content to read, right?…..and I’m just starting, so I don’t have an email list built yet…so do you have any other strategies for getting those 10ish reviews quickly so I can then start running ads?? Thanks so much for your videos and your time.

Thanks Dane for this video! I am new to kdp and have around 20 books, 1 month old (LC and NC - notebooks and journals). I understand it is a highly competitive space. Even though I have had no sales so far (which definitely is a high expectation from my end and I understand from the videos that it takes time, continuous effort and patience to see the first sale happen), what would you recommend for a beginner like me - to stay in Low content books or to scale up and invest into high content looks through ghostwriters?
@shallommkj9162

Hi Rismi, low content books are great, they don't take as much time and they bring easy sales. It's nearly the same for high content books with the right key words and when you invest in the right marketing strategies for both high content and low content books, getting sales becomes really easy. I had the same problem as you for several months before a business mate introduced me to ways that made the biggest changes in my writing career. I'd like us to share helpful ideas. Is there any way I can connect with you apart from KZitem?

Always love our videos Dane, but would like more information. When you say 'organic sales' what do you mean? Also slots? And how on earth do you promote a book on Facebook? How do you get a following? I have to tell you my first book was published in June and I was/and am on the first page of most of my keywords. So, I must be doing something right. Mostly it was a book launch team that wrote reviews and my followers on Quora that bought my book. Now my second book will be out by November latest. See what that does.

Hi Dean! Please can you give me your opinion on whether we can trust Publisher Rocket? Many of the results I get from it don't seem to concur at all with KD Spy and Amazon search box results. Sometimes they just seem way off. Like saying there is huge competition when there are only a few page results or huge monthly sales when there are only a few people searching. Can we trust this tool or is it leading us astray? I really think this is so important in our decision-making. Really appreciate any comment you might have.

If you only had 3 possible keywords for your book and they were eg (made up example) buddhist books for men (1k search) buddhist book for men (403 search) mens buddhist books (492 search) And it didn’t fit for the title, although you maybe could put “(buddhist men)” on the end of the title. You already have the phrase “buddhist men” as part of your subtitle… 1) Would having a series title called one of the 3 keywords help? Eg “buddhist books for men” 2) a) Do I need “book” or “books” in my title or subtitle to rank for any of the 3 keyword phrases? b) All other things being equal would that be enough to rank against other books in the niche, most of the bestsellers not having the keywords in the title (a few have 1 word from a keyword), and none having the word “book” or “books” in the title. Thanks

I wouldn't unpublish, just wait and see how things go once they are live and then make your decision, I can't see it being much of an issue waiting a bit longer though. But yes, if someone reviews your book outside of the US, that review most likely won't ever show on .com.

We all know how hard it is to build an audience consistently. In this video you are talking about yourself that is to say someone who already has an audience, who started KDP years ago when things where easier and who has a quite good experience. You are not giving us someting manageable for us neewbies at all but instead you are overwhelming our minds. Is there a really simplified strategy for someone who starts from scratch in order to make his first dollars on amazon kdp or is it a hard game to win so tell this to your audience in order to be more beneficial to them.

These strategies just all boil down to those who have a good email list or followers on social media or customer base already. If you don't have these structures, then this won't help at all. I thought you would reveal more organic ways to get this done without having to build a following, not everyone has that luxury. (Cos obviously if I had a following I could sell anything to them, the least of which will be books.)
