FYI I joined book bolt because of you. I had no idea just how much I would love it. Creating puzzles is so easy. I would spend hours making just one word puzzle,now its at a push of a button. Now I guess Im heading to Kittl. Thankyou so much❤
I keep thinking about crossing the moral line of making swear coloring books, but haven't been able to make myself do it yet, lol. But thank you for this informative video! Question, do you think you could share what categories or how you found the categories to put this book in? Categories always seem to trip me up because I have not been making coloring books...
Sure! Finding categories is just two steps. First identify a book on Amazon that is similar to the one you want to make. Second, if you look in the top left corner, you will see all of the categories listed for that book!
Hey Renee, When doing Mazes and coloring books, do you have to do the A+ content description before you upload it? I watched Sean earlier today, as I have been doing every day for three or more weeks. As a result, I've seen each of his videos at least five times, but I always catch something I missed the last time I watched. Today, I caught the A+ content description but have yet to hear what type of book it needs to be applied to. BTW: This was a great video! Thank you for what you do and the energy you put into it. I'm sure that book will do well. If Wheeler Walker Jr. can write, record, tour, and sell 70 million albums, 6 of which are Platinum and 20 Gold records, your book will have no problem reaching the masses.
I am never ashamed to admit when I don't know something - I love learning new things - and I've never heard of A+ content before! I'm diving into it now, and I'll definitely be making a video about it. Thank you for the tip!
@@reneefclancy you probably already know this, but the reason the A+ content came up is because Amazon discontinued the Look Inside feature of the books they sell. It’s always something!
There are definitely ways you can format and create books without Bookbolt. It will take longer, but if you are OK with managing the process, I believe you can do it all through Google Docs. Also, you would have to find a different way to do your own research, but maybe you could get started this way and as you start earn money then subscribe to bookbolt? Just a suggestion!
Sorry, I can't help you here. I just know that it is possible to do all of the formatting without these paid programs such as Book Bolt. These programs just make it a lot easier. I'm sure after doing your research, you'll figure it out!
Thanks so much for these ideas and tips. I’m just getting started and trying to streamline all my ideas on where I want to start and how to do it. I have an Amazon question. Are these books sold through the print on demand option or are kdp’s different? Sorry there’s so many options for selling and I’m trying to wrap my head around where to start with passive selling both books and t-shirts.
Hello! KDP is Amazon's 'print on demand' program. So think of it like if you want to print shirts, mugs, etc... then I use Printify as the source to manage my files and products, and when I want to print or produce books, then KDP is my source to manage the files. I hope that helps!
Thanks so much for explaining that. It can get confusing to work out what everything means and what options there are when starting out. There feels like there are too many options sometimes when trying to find out what will work best for me. I will definitely keep exploring and creating and see how I go :)
@@catb8834 I agree, there are SO many options and things to learn. Then, right when you 'master' one skill, a new opportunity or skill pops up! I love the journey - good luck on your journey and let me know how it goes!
Mam, when I make a book cover with canva and save it in print pdf form, it's images get blurred and of a bad quality, please tell me why does it happen and how to correct it
Just found your channel recently, love it. I would like to start making medium content books to sell on Amazon KDP, however, I thought they were not allowing/accepting books that had ai generated artwork? Have you heard this or had any problems getting books accepted using ai generated content? TIA
Great question! From everything I’ve seen and been required to do, I just have to check a box noting that the image is created with AI. It then asks me how many images or if the whole book was created with AI.
I am so new to this , I know I definitely want to learn and earn . So do you think its good idea for a beginner to start doing medium content books ? please advise thank you so much
I tried to publish a paperback version of a 45 page ebook but kdp is saying it has to be a minimum of 75 pages to do a paperback. Is there a way around it ?
Hey. It's a great, informative video❤️ you have a new subscriber now🙌🏻I'm doing research on kdp business because I'm going to start working and your video gave me another idea so, thank you dear. But i really want you honest suggestion about kdp. Like most people out there saying don't do that it's a waste of time. What do you suggest?
My honest thought about any side gig (including KDP) is that it is a great way to earn some extra money, but it takes YEARS for it to become a full time job. I believe that someone should keep their day job, and play around with KDP and other platforms for some fun, extra money.
I just started publishing and I can’t set my prices that low because the printing itself starts at like $6.How do you get your books to be that affordable?
They are priced pretty low - I'm hoping that by selling in quantity, and with multiple publications, that is how the profits will continue to increase.
Whatever side hustle you decide on, make sure it's something you enjoy doing! Whether it's selling on Etsy or publishing books on KDP... it will take a while for your business to grow, so if you're enjoying it, you'll be sure to stick with it
Not completely yet. I still use it when I need some PNG designs for my kids channel or text for my UA-cam banners. But I’m sure as soon as I learn how to do that on kettl, no reason to work in two different places!
I created a medium content book before finding your channel and I uploaded on Amazon KDP but it has been four days now and it’s still not approved and review. How long does this usually take?
It takes a long time to build a business and a steady income - I'm talking years. I think people are dishonest when they lead others to believe they can make a lot of money, fast. This book is an outlier, but it's a good example of what's trending.
Love your channel. I so wish Amazon would offer thicker paper and a tear out option. These are the options most people want in coloring pages.
I agree!
I do want to say thanks for showing how to use Kittl for books! I love Kittl and didn’t realize I could do this!
You are so welcome! I'm still learning all that Kittl has to offer, but I'm liking it so far!
just found you - interesting and infromational. Thabks. Now, I just need to follow your footsteps and get in the game
Thanks! let me know how it goes!
Great and original content 💯
I love it. I am a beginner no clue at all so this was extremely helpful !
Thank you and will let you know how it goes
Thanks for the video can you make a guide for me on how to upload my jpeg file from kittl to book bolt and print it out as pdf
Yep! That's what I'm planning on doing this weekend!
Thank you so much. Great valuable information. 📚

Wonderful! I’m glad you’re enjoying it as much as I do!
I'm not sure what bee flew into your bonnet, but yes, I did reply to that comment. Is there something I can help you with?
@@reneefclancy ok my bad, I am sorry.
@@reneefclancy so I just finished my facts book for kids, do you see any potential??
@reneefclancy 🌚plz?
I just found you Saturday. I am so in on this! Thank you!
Thank you so much!
This is awesome, thank you!
Glad you like it!
Thank you. Ill try this❤
Good luck!
Just found you few days back your videos are so inspiring ❤
Thank you so much!
What you suggest for beginner? Amazon KDP or Etsy? which one is easier to start
Neither one is easy. They will both take time and commitment! Go with the one that will highlight your talents and passions the most.
Im gonna give it a go..thank U.
Lovely mam❤you not only do but give an idea that actually multiply more of kind.
New subscriber love your teaching style❤
Can you please tell me how to upload a display picture in a book form, do i need to set it on mockup and then upload as a front pictures?

GREAT video! Thank you!!
Really cool informational vid. Naughty but nice. Love it!
Thank you so much!
very refreshing so thank you :)
I just saw this great video and it made me wanna try but when i went to kittly it was 85% pro which quite frustrating..😥
Miss Clancy can you pls elaborate how to use word to format the book and what size the pages should be

Subscribed from Ontario Canada Thanks
Thanks great video. What spyware do you recommend to do research in to get ideas of what’s selling ?
Sure thing! Book Bolt gives me all the information I need.
Mam, when I make a book cover with canva and save it in print pdf form, it's images get blurred and of a bad quality, please tell me why does it happen and how to correct it
If this happens is because the images you are using have not enough quality
@@paula-devi thank you mam

I am so new to this , I know I definitely want to learn and earn . So do you think its good idea for a beginner to start doing medium content books ? please advise thank you so much
Yes! I would say to definitely start with medium content books. The low content book area is so saturated.
What is Kidle? Im not seeing what program you are using.
It’s Kittl, and there should be a link in my description! The link should bring you right there.
Hi, great work ma'am.
Did you just leave the book and it sold or you do some marketing
Hello! This book I reference in the video isn't mine, so I'm not sure how they made so many sales. I'm assuming it's because of the unique idea
Thank you, interesting, I thought bad words are not allowed on KDP
Actually, my video this weekend will be about that and what the policy is!
can you suggest some free version for kittl type website
There is a free version of Kittl - it's a good place to start to determine if the platform will be a good fit or not!
I tried to publish a paperback version of a 45 page ebook but kdp is saying it has to be a minimum of 75 pages to do a paperback.
Is there a way around it ?
This is what I found:
Premium Color or B&W paperback: 24
Standard Color paperback: 72
Hardcover: 75
Do you have a video on creating graphics with ai (Kittl, etc.). This is my major hurdle.
Not yet, since I just started with them. But that's a great idea!
Did you say it's better to have an image on both sides of the paper?
I used to - but I got some great advice from a viewer not to do that anymore, so I'm not!
Can you write me name this font 3:41
Sure thing, it's called LaChalk in Premiere Pro.
❤ Thank you Mam🎉

Have you given up on Canva altogether?
Not completely yet. I still use it when I need some PNG designs for my kids channel or text for my UA-cam banners. But I’m sure as soon as I learn how to do that on kettl, no reason to work in two different places!
I created a medium content book before finding your channel and I uploaded on Amazon KDP but it has been four days now and it’s still not approved and review. How long does this usually take?
Sometimes it does take that long - you may want to check it to see if they've recommended any changes. If not, then it should be approved soon.
I did one of those coloring books and it hasn’t sold one copy. Are they running ads? I’m not so sure boom bolt is correct.
Actually, I’ll be talking about ads and how to promote the book this weekend!
I get all the AI images in square size...newbie here!
That happened to me too! My problem is I go too fast - have to remind myself to slow down and check every box!
How could day sell it with no review?
@roxane3226 It's not necessary to leave a review, and some buyers don't feel they need to read reviews before buying.
chatgpt asks for money. is there any free AI tool to create a book?
I'm sure there are free ones out there, but I use Chat GPT so much, I just paid for the subscription
Ya ya ya….dont believe it for a second. 😒
Thank you for sharing your opinion. I follow the data. When I find a book that is doing well, why not share and show others?
Stop with the lies, this does not work. Just paying monthly for nothing. If you have book bolt delete it. Waste of money and time.
It takes a long time to build a business and a steady income - I'm talking years. I think people are dishonest when they lead others to believe they can make a lot of money, fast. This book is an outlier, but it's a good example of what's trending.
