Creating and publishing KDP no content and low content journals to sell can be a daunting process when you're just starting out as there is a lot of information to take into account and understand. There are also many tools out there to create and publish books on the Amazon KDP platform and it is difficult to know where to start. In this video I break down the whole process from the creation of a journal to the upload to the Amazon platform. I show you where to find the free tools, including Canva, and how to use them, breaking down the whole process into 3 stages - the book cover creation, interior creation and then, finally, the upload to Amazon. If you are trying to start an online business or want to create a journal to sell on KDP then this is the perfect start. Journals can be used to make a passive income online and can be done using a laptop or computer from home or anywhere in the world.

    Thanks Paul, I'm new to your channel but I'm really grateful for your help! I'm currently in an unfortunate situation where I feel like I'm sacrificing all of my time working to support my partner and our son, meaning I never get to spend time with them. So finding (eventual) passive income is a dream for me. To be able to spend more time with my family without sacrificing our security... that's the goal. Thanks again for giving us a useful resource! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
