There is WAY too much competition for anyone just starting out with Amazon KDP, and Amazon is actually discouraging new sellers from making low content books. So what should you do instead?

We'll show you how to make passive income by launching your first MEDIUM CONTENT KDP coloring book. But not only that, we'll show you how to do it the SMART way. And by "the smart way," we mean launching a medium content book in a niche with high demand, low competition, & high royalties. Does that sound like something you're interested in? Then keep watching! We'll show you what sets medium content books apart, how to identify a niche to launch your book in, create your book, & how to publish it on Amazon KDP.

But not only that, we'll show you how to do this entirely for FREE.

Launching a medium content book on Amazon's print on demand service (KDP) means you don't need to be an author or a designer to get started, and you don't need to own any of your own inventory. You just need to know how to do product research, and how to create the interior and cover using free templates and tools. In this video, we're walking you through a step-by-step tutorial on how to use Canva to design your book's cover & interior pages. We'll also show you how to create your first KDP listing so you can start making sales!

Amazon KDP is one of our favorite ways of making money on Amazon, as this side hustle business can be started for free, by anyone! Watch how we make a low content KDP coloring book for FREE with Canva and other free tools.

  • From what I know about Canva and speaking to their customer support, you actually cannot use their images and sell them as-is. You have to change it into your own design in some way by merging elements etc in order to resell.

    Aim high: Don't be afraid to set ambitious goals for yourself. Dream big and work hard to make your aspirations a reality.
  • @briemac4780
    This is a great idea for me as an artist who can draw lineart for people and make coloring books for them. That'd be really fun!
  • @Space_Writer
    this is the first video on creating the cover that included all of the information I was looking for. thanks for explaining things thoroughly. my graphics editor of choice is adobe express, but I was still able to follow along and understand how the functions work(i.e. transparency tweaking).
  • A very valuable insight into medium content book designs for KDP. One tip from me is to open an incognito window before searching as Amazon will track your searches and screws the results the next time you search.
  • I've seen a number of low/medium-content book design videos. This one is the most comprehensive step-by-step book design video available! Thanks, guys! Very helpful.
  • @zejschade9583
    Thanks. This is my kind of learning phase. direct to the point and concise content. I've been wanting to learn but choosing the Niche is my most challenging one. Its why I need to know the methods to save time and effort to figure out if Im doing it right. Superb explanation. Cant wait for more content.
  • What a great option for curriculum in so many subject areas and grade levels!
  • @theafroveggie
    I am so glad I found this video. I was unaware that Amazon was no longer giving free ISBN numbers for low-content books. Thank you for this information!
  • I really like how you present all of the needed info, and you show the benefits of Jungle Scout without being pushy. Looks like a great program. I'm going to try making a few books in a niche that interests me, in order to learn, but I will likely come back later and subscribe to JS because the info on competition and finding a niche looks mint!
