@MosJay25 I will not sabotage what I prayed for. Also, I will stop doubting what God has already confirmed.

@Israel_Adekala Honestly... The process is everything.
English

Travel guide books are not dead.
You just couldn’t make them work.
I know some of you won’t like that.
Because it’s easier to say:
“this niche is saturated”
“it doesn’t sell anymore”
Than to admit what actually happened.
You spent time on it.
Wrote the book.
Published it.
Then checked your dashboard…
0 sales.
Maybe 1.
Silence.
Maybe reads.
But no significant sales.
So you concluded:
“yeah… this one is not it.”
And you left.
This is one of my students:
$1,377 in January.
$1,853 in February.
Same travel guide niche.
No ads.
No big review count.
So pause for a second.
Because this is the part that matters.
If someone else is making that from the same niche…
Then the niche is not your problem.
Something in your process is off.
Maybe your topic felt too generic.
Maybe your title didn’t pull clicks.
Maybe the book didn’t feel worth the price.
Maybe you didn’t understand what buyers actually look for.
But instead of figuring that out…
You moved on.
New niche.
Same confusion.
That jumping is what’s killing your results.
Not the niche.
Because every time you leave early…
You start from zero again.
I’ll break this down properly.
What to look for.
What most people miss.
Why your own didn’t move.
But I’m not dropping it into silence.
If you want it:
Like this post.
Repost it.
Follow me.
When it hits 300 likes, I’ll drop everything step by step.

@Israel_Adekala Hmm.....
Little things that are ignored most times.
English

A lot of people think their book is not selling because it needs more visibility.
More ads.
More impressions.
More push.
But that is not always the problem.
People don’t buy books because of how much effort you put into them.
They buy based on what they perceive the value to be.
And that perception happens fast.
From the title.
From the cover.
From how clearly the book promises to solve a problem.
If that first impression is weak…
The book does not get the chance to prove its actual quality.
It just gets skipped.
That is why a book can be well-written and still struggle.
Because the value is not being communicated strongly enough.
And that is also why some books move faster.
Not because they are perfect.
But because they feel more useful, clear, and relevant at first glance.
So the issue is not always:
“people are not seeing my book”
Sometimes the real issue is:
“people are seeing it… but not choosing it.”
That is a different problem.
And it requires a different fix.
People don’t buy effort.
They buy what feels valuable at first glance.

@Israel_Adekala Yeahh, just do the right thing so it would be easier to sort out any issue that arises.

The problem is not always that Amazon blocked your book.
Sometimes the problem is that the book does not look worth defending.
A lot of people think a blocked book automatically means Amazon got it wrong.
Not always.
Because if someone from the review team looks closely at the book, the real question becomes:
does this feel like a PROPER PUBLICATION
or does it feel like a RUSHED DOCUMENT that was simply uploaded?
That difference matters more than many publishers want to admit.
I am saying this from experience, because I have had to learn some of these things the hard way.
I have written books I later realised could have been handled better.
Not because they were completely useless.
But because there was a STRONGER PUBLISHING STANDARD I had not fully respected at the time.
And once you start seeing that, you realise something important:
good publishing practice does not just help the reader.
It also helps YOU stand behind your book with more confidence when Amazon questions it.
Because the stronger the book feels as a real publication, the stronger your ground becomes when you need to defend it.
FOLLOW if you want to make better publishing decisions before they cost you sales.
Many Authors are struggling with blocked books because of this, REPOST THIS so they can see the issue from a different perspective, and learn from it.

@Ben_E_Williams @AmoduBilia1057 The fact a bsr looks profitable doesn't mean it's profitable the way you think it is. So many factors brother
English

@Mesioyejohnson @AmoduBilia1057 What about this scenario.
I see a profitable one in terms of BSR, reviews and the likes. Then I work on it but still the product is not any close to average level of profitability (though sales are coming in but o believe it is not at its best)
English

@Ben_E_Williams @AmoduBilia1057 Omoh chill o
😂
You just dey write on any title you see? Cos E no dey work that way oooo
English

@Mesioyejohnson @AmoduBilia1057 All the respects my oga. Regarding that platform, currently on about 47 books and nothing my oga. 🤲
English

@AmoduBilia1057 No I don't
You really don't have to run ads for that

The goal is more revenue that will translate into more profit rather than higher turnovers. IYKYK

• Want to leverage AI for a new income stream
Inside, you’ll learn how to:
• Validate what people already want
• Build multiple book income streams
• Turn a few books into consistent monthly income (even from zero)
Free for now.

@Odogwu_of_sales Great. Is the feature included in the Claude author + RIAF program?
English

Most nonfiction authors add images to their books as decoration.
The ones that actually sell use images as orientation.
Before the reader reads a word, they already feel where the chapter is going.
That’s the job of a chapter image. Not to look good.
To prepare the reader.
I built a Claude skill that does this automatically using Ideogram AI.


English

You have a good job.
But if you stop working... income stops too.
That’s not freedom.
That’s dependency.
Real security?
Owning assets that pay you.
For me, that’s short non-fiction books on Amazon.
No audience.
No brand.
No complicated setup.
A few books → monthly royalties
Across multiple countries.
I've spent 6+ years building the system behind this. I put the entire framework into a free 5-day email course:
Day 1 — Why most publishers fail before they start
Day 2 — The portfolio mindset that turns books into compounding assets
Day 3 — How to validate a niche before you write a word
Day 4 — The offer architecture that makes books sell predictably
Day 5 — Your 90-day Minimum Viable Portfolio roadmap
Comment “BOOKS” and I’ll send it over.

Following your passion is keeping you broke.
Instead, create a 90-page ebook and sell it on amazon for $19.
It’s boring...
But it can make you an extra $2,945/month.
And it only takes 1 hour a day.
Here’s how to do it in 10 simple steps:
1/ Ask ChatGPT to list 10 evergreen nonfiction niches
2/ Pick one specific niche (e.g. Mediterranean cookbook for seniors)
3/ Use ChatGPT to outline 10 chapters
4/ Expand each chapter with Claude AI
5/ Polish the writing with Grammarly
6/ Design a simple cover using Ideogram + Canva
7/ Upload the book to Amazon KDP
8/ Launch at $0.99
9/ Collect 10–20 reviews through niche communities
10/ Raise the price → scale winners → repeat
I make $50,000/month doing this.
You can easily do $3,000 if you follow my system.
But obviously, there’s more to this business.
That’s why I’m giving away my AI Publishing tutorial where you can learn how to to all these in more detail.
Normally $199.
Today it’s FREE.
