thank you Sandra, I love all your insight and information that your have shared. I have two jobs and I have been praying for an online income. And i am so grateful for you, you have shared hope and this is exactly what i needed. Thank you so much.

I can only imagine how many coloring books there are going to be out there now :))) I think we should all start making KZread videos "how to make xyz and make $5k a month" you don't need to make anything, just one time video that can be making you $5000 a month over and over by telling others and giving others false hopes. It's a time consuming process, takes a lot of research, takes a lot of marketing! That is not talked about in this video :))

I’m with you on that! I fell for it too, only it was selling on Etsy. So I did open a shop, and I still have it, but no way am I earning $4000 a month! A good month for me selling stickers is $400! The thing that no one talks about is how hard it is to market your product! Doesn’t matter how many research u do beforehand, how beautiful and good quality ur product is, if u don’t know how to market? You ain’t getting nothing!! And that’s the challenge! If u don’t have a business background or have no creative juices to do reels on instagram or tiktok, or doesn’t know how to post engaging instagram posts, feed, or story or can’t even take a good aesthetic picture for ur product, forget it!! If u have extra money to spend, hire someone who can or forget the idea altogether! There, that’s the TRUTH!

It's an 11-minute video. Anyone with half a brain knows 1) she can't cover every aspect. She did say you have to research and market properly. The presumption for most people would be to keep digging and find out what all is involved. 2) $4k actually isn't unreasonable IF you're willing to do the work. Basically, money isn't free. That's common sense.

This is a good idea!

I enjoyed your video and learned a lot. I have Book Bolt, but I have not used it as you have described here. Thank you so much!! However, to be clear, the way I understand it from the KDP website, "KDP offers a fixed 60% royalty rate on paperbacks sold on Amazon marketplaces where KDP supports paperback distribution. Your royalty is 60% of your list price. We then subtract printing costs, which depend on trim size, page count, ink type, and the Amazon marketplace your paperback was ordered from. (Royalty rate x list price) - printing costs = royalty For example, your list price is $15. Your book is a 333-page regular trim size paperback with black ink sold on the US marketplace: (0.60 x $15) - $5.00 = $4.00" At the 2.25 minute mark in the video, it is stated that if a book is sold for $6.77 and 631 books are sold, that would generate "$4,271.87 in passive income". That is not what the author receives. I have books on KDP that are listed at $6.99 each. When one sells, my royalty is 60% of that which is $4.19 then $2.84 is subtracted for printing costs, which leaves me with a payout of $1.35. If I sold 631 books monthly, KDP would pay me $854.38 for those sales. That is pretty awesome, and I hope my books will all sell that many each month, but it is not $4,271 to me for 631 sales.

Remember that the IRS will see $4,272 worth of income, the rest is expenses that are deductible to your business. Your Profit is $854. It's just like your 9-5 paycheck. You get $3,000 and your net check is $2,200 after all your deductions (or in this case expenses.). Hope this makes sense. I would be happy with the ~$800 extra a month!!

Hi! I am at the stage of uploading the coloring book for my KDP manuscript section. However, it requires the json files to be either PDF or Doc, or HTML. You might want to update your video to explain that bit. IMO.

Regarding selling on Amazon, I saw, as part of their agreement with you, that you MUST give them rights to all of your items. They have the right to take your item and sell it without giving you any of the profits. Did you see that? Is that true? Thanks!

Hello Sandra, thanks so much for your videos that are so helpful. I know that when you use the images from Creative Fabrica you have to modify them in order not to have license/copyright problems. Is putting a quote or a writing over them like you did in your coloring book enough (to avoid license issues), or did you also have to modify the Creative Fabrica images as well? My other question is: in terms of book creation do you find that Book Bolt is superior to Canva (not considering the trend selection, but only focusing on its book creation functions). Thanks

I personally find Book Bolt better because they come with pre-made templates for you and the measurements are compliant with KDP standards, but honestly both are great!! Create Fabrica just requires that you modify the original image so that they can't be "extracted" by third parties. So putting quotes over top achieves that :) Hope that helps!

For everyone reading this hoping to get rich quick from Amazon... it isn't that easy! But it can be a rewardable side-hustle as you scale to having lots of books. I'm on 60+ published books now and still grinding away. I think you'd need at least 200+ high quality books (supported by ad spend) to be able to start thinking about making a full-time income.

sandra DI, IS there any Plagrism issue if 2 seller used same picture from creative fabrica?

Hi @SandraDi, what software do you use to design your book? It's not Indesign or Canva I see. Anyone knows?

2:18 - Wait. Hold up. 🛑 Why doesn’t anyone talk about the COST of printing the book via Amazon? That example of the inspirational coloring book selling over 600 books/month at the price of $6.77 doesn’t equate to them earning over 4K/month. Not only does Amazon take a big percentage of each sale, they also charge a hefty fee for the cost of making your book. And after Amazon takes their percentage, plus the cost of printing, you are left with about 30% of the sale! These people making these videos need to keep it 💯 and stop trying to sell bs to people. Be all the way honest about the entire process and facts! There’s no way that person is making a livable profit. Probably no profit at all. Keep it a buck.

Good point - Sandra should have mentioned it. But if you are a least slightly familier with any kind of PoD and distribution then you'll know that after fee's, costs and the biggie, tax, you'll only get to keep a small percentage. I think there are many other videos on here that explain the pitfalls. For me it's all about getting 2-4 side hustles, going for large volumes and hopefully it'll all equate to a decent full time salary on the side after 6-12 months of putting the hours in. But the video definitely should at least mention this, if only briefly.

Thank you very much. Basically, this is how you click together a book. Of course, that's different from writing your own book. It seems to work in sales. That's why it's interesting. One question - do the stores, like Pepper Lomax, know that you're bringing them here as an example? Are they your own stores? Or Do you have permission from them to bring them here as an example? Or do you do that without being asked?

Hi Sandra! I have a question about Book Bolt: how accurate is the Amazon Search Volume (which is in the last month, right?) for a particular keyword? For example, on Book Bolt I find a keyword with 20000-30000 AMZ Search Volume and 800 results on AMZ. I doubt that I found the golden ticket for that keyword so I`m wondering if the AMZ search volume results are actually accurate? Also, for keywords that AMZ is giving me in the search bar - which would be the most searched for, right? - i find 1000-2000 AMZ search volume on book bolt. Am I doing something wrong?

You can still sell the products you already made with the design. You are just no longer allowed to create NEW products with those images after you cancel your subscription. But if you don’t have a subscription and just pay per download, then you can make however many products you want with those images (as long as they don’t give a particular amount for that image. Like it says that the license is good for 1000 products before you have to rebuy that image license.) but I believe most, if not all, images on Creative Fabrica let you use the images however many times you want to after you pay the one time fee.

I can't say for sure, but I've been under the impression that Canva has changed their policies recently, unless I just misunderstood them all along (but I've found a number of people that have noticed the same thing). They seem to exclusively be limiting the commercial use of graphics from their site in all digital or POD products, regardless of whether or not you pay for a Canna Pro account. In my opinion, it makes it questionable as to what value Canva actually offers other than for advertising purposes since nothing can be used to be sold anymore (or like I said, maybe I've just misunderstood for years, but I don't think that's how their policies used to be). Anyway, if you're using Canva to create, then there's a chance that's why your content got flagged. 🤷‍♀
