3 things most Kindle authors get wrong
A taste of what the full course covers in depth.
Price for rank, not just royalties
Most Kindle authors default to $2.99 or $9.99 without checking what actually sells in their genre. Romance readers expect $3.99-4.99 for full-length novels, while thrillers peak at $4.99-5.99. The 70% royalty tier starts at $2.99, but a $0.99 Countdown Deal still pays 70% instead of the usual 35%. Check your genre's top 100 before setting a price.
Stack your promos instead of running them solo
A single newsletter feature might move 50-200 copies. But if you stack 3-4 promotions across different deal sites in the same week, the combined sales velocity pushes you up the Amazon charts, which triggers the algorithm to recommend your book to more readers organically. The compound effect is far bigger than the sum of the parts.
Your first book is a marketing tool, not a revenue stream
Authors with 25-30+ titles earn 10x more on average than single-book authors. The maths favours writing the next book over endlessly marketing your first. Use your debut to build a reader magnet, collect email addresses, and fund the next launch. The backlist is where the real income lives.
