Amazon paid me $65,000 last month for publishing eBooks.
I didn't write a word.
Here's what I actually did.
And btw, if you want my complete strategy broken down: AI prompts, workflow, and systems, like this post, follow me and comment "AI". I'll DM it to you.
Most people picture publishing as one of two things.
Either you sit down and write a book. Or you run ads hoping someone clicks.
Neither of those is my job.
Here's what my job actually looks like:
Monday morning.
The first hour is research.
I'm on Amazon, looking at BSR numbers in a niche I'm considering.
BSR under 100,000 means real buyers are spending real money there right now.
I open the 3 and 4-star reviews of the top books.
I'm looking for the gap: the thing buyers wanted and didn't get.
That gap is the next book.
By the next hour I have a brief.
Specific reader, specific problem, specific solution structure.
That brief goes to Claude.
The next hour is reviewing what Claude produces.
Reading for consistency, quality, tone.
Making sure Chapter 10 still sounds like the same book as Chapter 1. Flagging anything that needs to be sharper.
By third hour, I have a near-publishable draft.
That draft goes to formatting.
The cover gets designed in Ideogram using the visual language of what's already converting in that category.
By the end of the week, the book is live on Amazon.
In 17 markets simultaneously.
Paperback. Kindle. Hardcover.
Then the book earns:
While I sleep.
While I surf at noon.
While I read in the evenings.
This is the model at maturity.
Not passive from day one... the build phase takes consistent effort over the first 90 days.
But the thing you're building in those 90 days doesn't need you once it exists.
A book published today earns royalties for years.
A portfolio of 12 books earns $8,000 to $10,000 a month on autopilot.
That's what $50,000 looks like at its base level... multiple books, multiple formats, multiple markets, all running without me touching them after launch.
Most people will read this and think it sounds too simple.
The ones who act will find out it's exactly that simple.
