@@DAOS Very well. I am selling roughly 50 books a month with no advertising. I am focused on building a base of content over the next few years. I still have my day job, lol.
It's not actually a "step by step" guide, but surely it's inspirational. I like the part you said not to compare with others and how it makes you feel depressed, as well as all your failures because many people share only positive experiences.
A huge thank you for sharing your mistakes as well as your wins. The people that do that I always listen to instead of people who say they did everything "perfect" somehow. I also appreciate you expressing how hard you work and how little you spent to get somewhere. It's inspiring. Thank you.
Great story Sean. You have worked your butt off over the last few years. You have faced some ups and downs over the years but you kept pushing through and boom look at where you are now. MASSIVE RESPECT ✊
Thanks for sharing this! Including the rocky parts early in your journey. I appreciate how frank you have been in your videos about missteps as well as successes. I have completed a lot of your new self publishing course and I’m well on my way to publishing my first high content book as a result. Thanks!
Extremely smart! Be frugal! Material items fades very quickly. I salute you and your KDP success. I just started on my KDP journey having been through the same success in royalty income in the music business. Digital real estate is definitely a great way to build income and wealth.
Wow thank you for sharing your inspiring story. You are such a humble and frugal kid and i can see how dedicated you are with what you are doing. Your parents must be really proud of you. I was touched by your story when you were scammed with huge amount of money. It shows how vulnerable you were when you were starting and that is when lessons are learned and keep on going.
Thanks for sharing your truth, Sean! Your "Caveat Emptor" (let the buyer beware) experiences had taught you well. Keep prospering in all you do. Joshua 1:8
Wow Sean,you are a motivation for me. I'm 24 now and i just started Amazon kdp,i pray and as well believe i must succeed in it. Thsbk you for sharing your pains and experiences without hiding any vital information. Thsnk you sir,i would like to be your student from Africa sir.
By far you are the best UA-camr that talks about KDP that I’ve seen! I almost never comment on videos, but you are a great motivator, and you have a honest face . I will definitely check out Your course. And yes, keep on click baiting because that’s what made me discover your channel!!! thank you for all the advice
Thanks for sharing your story! I have four coloring books published that feature all original art made by me, and I also published some journals as well. I am working on my fifth coloring book now :) Good luck everyone!
I hear you about getting that first sale. No matter how small it was. I was really happy. especialy that I though my first sale may not come through until months after. TFS!
WOW! I'm so happy this video was recommended to me. Incredible journey. Thank you for the reminder about selling a KDP business, and brilliant advice on selling in Q4 and not Q1. Thank you for the valuable info, and sage advice, very generous of your time!
Thanks for sharing your story, it's really an eye opener. Keep up the good work, and congratulations on your success Sean. You are an inspiration ❤️🙏👏🙌.
Congratulations. You are so inspiring. My daughter and I are so inspired by you that we are getting your course. Almost done saving for it and I can't wait!
Good job in keeping it going despite some "set backs" :) Happy to see you made it work for you. I have begun doing coloring books and journals and the simple things first, but I am already planning to make children's books and so much more. Why not? It is a fun hobby. I will be watching more because at the end of the day-I just want to be me and do what I enjoy. I am the same way- I do not care so much about the material life. We all like nice things... But we do not live for them. I think of it as a blessing for work done well from the heart. And in getting we give it back to others and bring others up with us :D I like your style and gentle spirit. Thanks for the information.
@@SeanDollwet Thank you for replying. It will also be really interesting to see the progress you make starting a new KDP business, if you choose to. Looking forward to it !!
This guy knows how to mew and he makes big money. Congrats ! But the best part of the thing is to write the books, the money is like the sherry on the cake.
Thank you for your clear and honest explanation. As for your wondering why people are watching your videos and not subscribe... I would say that maybe it's because they have subscribed to so many channels...
Wow, congratulations Sean! Very inspiring story - I’m currently focused on Amazon FBA, but am planning to do unique bundles etc. That combine physical products with books… love your humility and the success you’ve had!
Congratulations Sean! And THANK YOU so much for being genuine, honest and transparent. The amount of crap and bs on making money online is beyond astounding. So it is refreshing to see someone like you!
Sean, I have to say that you have a great discipline in this life 😁. That's what I pursue alot but still can't not be good at it :). These days I'm in the anxiety attacks like you, but watching your video motivates me a lot. Thank you Sean! Hope you will do more video & keep the channel active 🥰 Best wish for you!!
Dunno if you still have problems, but David Goggin's books are very helpful with that. Once you realize that there is true growth in suffering you will be able to suffer and therefore have discipline.
Hi, I think you are on the right course for helping people. You break it down and you seem believable as far as being able to trust what you say. We both know there are people out there trying to take advantage. I am new to KDP and I appreciate your honesty and hard work. I would love to take your course because I think you have a lot to offer. I know you have been burned by people taking your money. My question is , when you gave your money to someone saying they would help you and you didn’t know them or trust them. I’m sure you got a good feeling about them but look what happened. I am not saying you don’t deserve the money that you are asking but for the people like me who are just starting out I don’t have that kind of money. If you are trying to help people which it sounds like you are why are you asking for so much??? It’s not my place to tell you how much to charge but I think a lot of people would appreciate the fact that you would like to just help people get ahead with your knowledge. Maybe someday I will be able to take your class. As of now I guess I will have to wing it and make my mistakes as I go. I am not trying to put you down because I think you have a great persona about you. Keep up the good work and I wish you the best in your endeavors. Jen
Sean, you are a great guy and I admire your ethic. I am also a publisher and entrepreneur and I know exactly how difficult it is to get there. Congratulations on your nice video.
I'm sorry that you went thru all the grief and lost your life savings (well you hadn't lived a full life yet! I know because I'm 58yrs old) but you are successful and as soon as I have enough $$$, I am buying your course!

"I just want freedom." Bingo. There it is. Great video, Sean. Thank you for sharing your hits and misses...due to personal-circumstance changes, I'm about to try to do the same.
I would go 100% into bitcoin. It's like investing in real estate, but you can take it anywhere in the world, whereas a building you can't take it. And we are still early in the adoption of bitcoin, we are only at a 15 percent adoption, and by 2029 we will be at 90 percent adoption.
Thank you for being so honest about both the finacial side and the fails along the way. Congratulations on your finacial development. 🌺 Here in Sweden a million is around 1/10 of a US million but we still call it a millionaire, so here it would mean that the amount you lost was a million swedish kronor. As one who has never owned that huge amount of money I totally get the panic attacks and depression you got from the experience. Way to go not giving up and building a new fortune! And kudos for still keeping your feet on the floor 🤩
congrats young man. take time though to splurge just a little. you do not want to burn yourself out on this stringent schedule. you are good in that you have figured out what has taken the majority of the population until they are almost dead, to realize. congrats again and keep on going.
Wonderful story. I've seen few people being this transparant about their life and business journey. Do your kdp earnings come from high content or low content books? Thanks for sharing!👍🏾
Very impressive story. I made mistake in my life and 8 blame myself but waw 100 000 and after 25 000 ! Really expensive mistake and life learn ! You pass through all this and you explode the game 🎯. Bravo for this. When I had your age I think only to party 🥳 lol. I begin On kdp, with no results now but i have to keep working and I do real estate too. I do all those things for the same reason : freedom ! I'm not English fluent but i will think buy your course. Thanks for sharing your story
Show us the kinds of books you are making! You kind of let us hanging. I have three puzzle books up now that I published last month and I already have 29 sales.
hi Sean. I really enjoyed your wisdom. And literally stopped myself from publishing my first book on Amazon because of some of your advice. Not having what the book was about in the title! Do you have any advice about merchandising original drawings or content from a book once published on Amazon. I reached out to Amazon asking them if they had a print on demand affiliate in-house. And of course no one got back to me. I tried several different divisions. And they acted like it was the strangest idea in the world and didn’t give me the time of day. my first book is kind of low content. But I hand illustrated all the drawings in the book. And I would like to have them available for people to buy on T-shirts and or art prints. Will I have to take this outside of Amazon? Or do you know if some in-house or print on demand system in place through Amazon?
Thanks for sharing your story. I have a question about opening second KDP account. How can we do that since KDP doesn't allow that one should have multiple accounts? Can you please explain. Thank you!
Congrats Sean and thank you for sharing your success story. Honestly i found it very inspiring. Please I have a question, how long does it take before you start seeing impression and making sales with Amazon ads?
