HOW I PUBLISHED MORE THAN 200 BOOKS ON AMAZON IN LESS THAN A YEAR

A lot of people have been asking me how I was able to publish this many books on Amazon within the short period of One Year.

So today I have decided to share how I did it.

First of all let me say this, it takes determination and consistency. 

๐Ÿ‘‰And itโ€™s not a get rich quick scheme.

๐Ÿ‘‰ And you must be ready to do the work and be patient.

Itโ€™s not for everyone but if you have a flare for books and youโ€™re ready to learn new things you can have a go.

Itโ€™s also a great legacy for you and your family ๐Ÿ˜Š

๐Ÿ’ฅBut if I can do it you can too. If you know me very well you will know what I mean. ๐Ÿ˜Š

My Story ๐Ÿ‘‡

I came across a YouTube video of Ms Edirin Edewor  on  – HOW TO WRITE, PUBLISH AND SELL  YOUR EBOOK IN 24 HOURS OR LESS โ€ฆ

(I recommend this video for anyone that wants to start publishing books on Amazon) 

After watching her videos and some other videos on the same topic I was hooked ๐Ÿ˜†

So that was how I started creating books. 

I used a free app called Canva, because it was easy to use and it already had lots of free templates (graphics) that I wanted for my journals. 

I told my son that I will make 100 books before my 52nd birthday last August. Which I achieved ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

My first book (gratitude journal) was published on the 12th of January 2021.. 

After seeing how easy that was I decided to create 2 books each day and published them that same day. 

I did this for a few months consistently. Until I got a bit distracted with life. ๐Ÿ˜†

But I eventually got back on my routine. I was able to publish 102 books on my last birthday in August.๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ˜Š

๐Ÿ’ŽHere are some of my No Content and Medium Content books I have published on Amazon so far๐Ÿ‘‡

โ—๏ธGratitude Journal for kids and women, Coloring books for kids, Maths and English  workbooks, Phonics books, Children story books, Notebooks, Planners, Diary,  Budget Planners, Nigeria History book, Handwriting books for kids, Activities books, Parenting books, and many more 

At the moment, I am taking a break for a bit because Iโ€™m currently studying Child Psychology at the Open University in Uk.  

But as of today I have more than 200 books on Amazon. 

๐Ÿ‘‰(Go on Amazon and just type in my name if you donโ€™t believe me ๐Ÿ˜†) 

This is me telling you that anything is possible if you really want it.

HOW TO START ๐Ÿ‘‡

โœ…Go on Google and type in; AMAZON KINDLE DIRECT PUBLISHING: SELF PUBLISHING. 

And create a KDP account (itโ€™s free) 

โœ…Watch free YouTube videos on publishing on Amazon 

โœ…Learn how to use Canva. 

There are so manyYouTube videos on how to create journals or notebooks and a book cover on Canva (itโ€™s free to join) 

โœ…Start creating notebooks first 

โœ… And just  start, take action

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”-

๐Ÿ’ฅWould you make money

โœ…Yes you will.

Remember itโ€™s a side hustle, itโ€™s not a get rich quick scheme.

 With patient and consistent on your part you will start making money

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”-

Did I make money?

Yes 

But that was not my initial intention. I was making the Gratitude Journals to prove a point that I can do it and also to give them to my students to motivate them.

โœ…When do you get paid 

You get paid monthly (itโ€™s called Royalty)  

P.S: You donโ€™t need to publish as many books as I did  before you make money o. I love creating books. That’s why I did that many ๐Ÿ˜†

๐Ÿ‘‰But what I do differently now is that I look at my previous books that are selling on Amazon and I make more of those. ๐Ÿ˜†

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”-

My final thoughts 

Todayโ€™s post is just for people that think they canโ€™t do something because itโ€™s hard. 

๐Ÿ‘‰Please note; you donโ€™t have to write, or publish a book like I did if that’s not your thingโ—๏ธ

Everybody has a gift in them, this is just a reminder that whatever you want you can do it. 

Because nothing is impossible if you really want it. 

Ask yourself this question;- WHAT DO I REALLY WANT IN LIFE? 

Be specific and ask your God for it! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ 

๐Ÿ’ฅ(Because the first secret of getting what you WANT is knowing what you Want) 

I love to hear your thoughts and questions ๐Ÿ‘‡Please share 

Thanks
