Selling books on Amazon KDP and barely generating any income for almost over a year was discouraging but it was a lesson. SEO (search engine optimization ) was the best thing I ever learned to exist online. #amazonkdp #seo

Transcript

I sold digital products on Amazon KDP and made $0 for a year. I sold low content books on Amazon KDP for about a year straight and I didn't really make any sales. The average person would have gave up, but we're not average so what I did was I invested in an Amazon KDP course. I'm not here to tell you about any course, however I realized that continued education is key and I was lacking something called SEO, search engine optimization. I had no idea how to make my books come up on the Amazon results page. So once I invested in my education, took the little course I found on like Facebook or something, I started seeing sales immediately. This message is for anybody that's selling anything and they're not making any sales, any traction. Do not give up on yourself, just invest in yourself and learn.
