Triple Your Book Sales FAST by Doing THIS (Amazon KDP)

About this video

This is another installment of the creator’s viewer-book review series, critiquing submitted KDP titles and explaining what to fix to get more sales. A central theme is competitive advantage: he argues a book with a worse cover, fewer reviews, a higher price, and no marketing has no reason to outsell rivals, but gaining an edge is relatively easy — a better cover, a unique angle, more reviews, or a lower price. Several reviews target pricing: a children’s book and a prompt journal priced around $24–25 with only a handful of reviews are called far too expensive, and his standard advice is to launch low, let early sales signal demand to Amazon’s algorithm, and raise prices gradually as momentum and reviews build. Covers are again a major focus, with DIY Canva covers criticized as not competitive and specific inexpensive Fiverr designers recommended for children’s books and low-content journals. He also critiques unfocused positioning — one journal tries to solve four problems at once with vague benefit language like ‘radiant health,’ and he advises solving one clear problem per book. A book on making money from stock footage illustrates the demand problem: no other book on the topic is selling, so there is no proof of concept, and he suggests repositioning it under a proven umbrella topic like side hustle or passive income ideas. For a men’s self-help book with an autobiographical title, he suggests SEO-driven titles would work better for pure KDP sales, though podcast appearances could suit an author building a coaching business. Throughout, he pushes getting average ratings to at least 4.3 and using review services to build social proof.

Key takeaways

• A book needs at least one competitive advantage — better cover, unique angle, more reviews, or lower price — to give buyers a reason to choose it.
• Launch at a low price to generate sales and algorithmic momentum, then raise the price gradually as reviews accumulate.
• Solve one clear problem per book; vague benefit phrases and multi-problem positioning confuse buyers and weaken the listing.
• Check for proof of concept before publishing — if no book on the topic sells, reposition under a broader proven topic such as side hustle ideas.
• Replace DIY Canva covers with inexpensive professional designs, and keep average ratings at 4.3 or above to display as five stars.
