Geld verdienen mit Amazon KDP ist das eine – Vermögen aufbauen das andere. In dieser Folge des Verlagsniveau Podcasts sprechen Tom und Jonathan darüber, was nach dem Umsatz kommt: Altersvorsorge, Investments und finanzielle Verantwortung als Selbstständiger.Sie erklären, warum gerade Unternehmer und KDP-Publisher nicht auf eine gesetzliche Rente bauen sollten – und weshalb es ein Fehler sein kann, zu früh alles in ETFs zu stecken. Stattdessen stellen sie ein klares Zwei-Phasen-Modell vor:Zuerst Cashflow erhöhen und ins eigene Business investieren, um die Sparrate massiv zu steigern.Erst danach Kapital strukturiert in klassische Anlageklassen investieren.Im Fokus stehen dabei einfache, umsetzbare Prinzipien: Sparrate erhöhen statt Rendite jagen, breit gestreute ETFs als solide Basis, Immobilien als mögliche Ergänzung und Krypto höchstens als kleine Beimischung.Eine Folge für alle, die nicht nur Umsatz machen, sondern langfristig Vermögen aufbauen und finanziell unabhängig werden wollen.Du möchtest in 2026 gemeinsam mit uns dein KDP Business aufbauen?

In Part 5, we get into the real reason cards hit so hard for so many of us. Not just value, not just the chase, but the actual emotional and even physical reaction collectors can have to certain cards. We talk about what creates that feeling, what separates cards from other collectibles, and how the hobby's structure, history, and shared “language” shape the way we collect. The chat brings strong perspectives on nostalgia, enjoyment, and what keeps the collecting flame going over decades. We also touch briefly on a current topic that popped up on social media, then close with updates on POPs & COMPs, the Hobby Spectrum survey improvements, and what's coming next. If you're watching this episode in parts, this is the one that gets surprisingly personal about why we collect at all. POPs & COMPs update: The book has been uploaded to Amazon KDP and is currently in the review queue (up to 72 hours). Once it clears, we'll be ordering a proof copy to verify everything before it goes live. The Hobby Spectrum: If you haven't joined yet, get on the waitlist for an early access code. We're temporarily holding new codes while a handful of survey question revisions are being deployed, including a couple with more sophisticated logic. If you've already taken the assessment, you can retake it every 30 days. If you feel like your approach is evolving or you want a cleaner result after the updates, take it again when you're eligible. What's coming next: More functionality is on the way, including improved search and filtering and the ability to add who you collect so others can find you and connect on the platform of your choice. Podcast listeners: Even when there's no live show, episodes will continue to hit Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and everywhere you listen. Thanks for watching and for bringing the chat energy every week.

After helping create 300+ books over 14 years, Rodney shares insider knowledge on Amazon KDP, realistic publishing costs, and critical launch mistakes that kill book success before it starts.

Mówię, że sprzedawanie ich jako bezpiecznej, domyślnej drogi coraz częściej jest iluzją.

Crear libros en Amazon no se trata solo de escribir: se trata de entender el negocio detrás del contenido. Lilibeth Fernández lo sabe muy bien. Como especialista en el ecosistema de Amazon y fundadora de varias marcas, ha convertido su conocimiento en una guía para quienes buscan generar ingresos desde Latinoamérica. "Puedo crear libros, pero lo que es siempre importante es el capital. Eso ayuda al emprendedor a animarse a crear un producto basado en libros, conocer cómo es Amazon", sostiene. Para Lilibeth, el gran potencial de KDP está en que permite experimentar, aprender y escalar dentro del ecosistema: "Siempre les digo a las personas que están en Amazon KDP… si realmente saben crear un producto, crear un buen listado, posicionar el producto, que es lo más difícil para los vendedores, ya están listos para ir a Amazon FBA o a donde ellos deseen dentro de la plataforma y yendo a nichos más grandes". KDP es, en su visión, una puerta de entrada accesible y estratégica para cualquier emprendedor que quiera dar sus primeros pasos en e-commerce. Su enfoque está basado en la data. "Lo que utilizo es Helium 10 y Data Dive, donde analizamos los nichos, qué es lo que está en tendencia actualmente en Amazon con el tema de libros, ya sea de bajo o medio contenido", cuenta. Lilibeth clasifica los libros según su nivel de complejidad: bajo contenido para cuadernos y planificadores; medio contenido para libros para colorear o recortar; y alto contenido para obras literarias. Pero más allá de la categoría, lo esencial es saber leer el mercado. "Me gusta analizar los libros que se han lanzado en los últimos dos años, porque me permiten entrar a competir con vendedores medios y no con editoriales mejor posicionadas", aclara. Ese análisis profundo le permite identificar oportunidades antes de que un nicho se sature. "Ahora los planificadores están saturados, porque la gente está creando más de lo mismo y no está dando un valor agregado dentro de los libros de planificación, a menos que vayas a un subnicho", asegura. Lo mismo ocurre con los libros de mándalas o mascotas, donde recomienda explorar variantes más específicas que respondan a intereses puntuales del público: "Hay mucho material por hacer pero hay que saberlo estudiar". El diseño también juega un papel clave en la estrategia. Lilibeth presta especial atención a los detalles técnicos que pueden marcar la diferencia en la visibilidad de un libro: "El título del libro es indispensable que esté dentro de la portada… porque Amazon lee las palabras que están dentro de las etiquetas y dentro de las portadas de los libros". Cada elemento visual, desde la tipografía hasta el color, puede influir en el algoritmo. Por eso, además de analizar keywords, utiliza herramientas como PickFu: "Las portadas las testeo mediante PickFu, donde hago encuestas en vivo… pero no basado en lo que a mí me gusta, sino en lo que la gente está pidiendo". Una vez que el libro está listo, llega el momento de darle visibilidad. "Con 150 dólares podemos hacer la publicidad del producto en Amazon. A mí me gusta lanzar campañas en automático para ver qué es lo que la gente está buscando y cómo te encuentra", comenta nuestra invitada. Según explica, entender la data publicitaria permite después combinar estrategias más precisas con campañas de targeting o palabras clave. Pero Lilibeth también hace una distinción fundamental entre crear libros y construir una marca: "Si quieres crear un libro lo que vas a ganar es muy poco… pero si quieres crear una marca nos vamos a diferentes segmentos a vender, ya sea TikTok Shop, otras redes sociales, Pinterest". Para ella, el verdadero potencial está en trascender el formato y construir una identidad propia. Porque al final, como dice, "la persona te compra a ti".

She was a successful professional in the investment world, even co-founding her own firm, before a documentary inspired her to make a life-altering change. She revealed that her motivation stemmed from the profound emotional connection her books created with readers, a feeling she found more meaningful than the world of finance. Her belief that "anyone can learn to do anything if they want it badly enough" is a powerful message for aspiring writers from any background. Her debut novel, My Mother's Secret, was a testament to this, becoming a worldwide sensation and being translated into 10 languages.The Creative Process: Authenticity and EmotionDuring our chat, JL offered some invaluable advice for other authors. She emphasized that her writing is driven by passion rather than strategy, and that every story, regardless of genre, must feel authentic and be well-researched. She believes the key to a successful novel is creating characters that readers truly care about. She also revealed that her next novel, Stronger, is about 80% complete and is based on a true story from Taiwan. When asked for her most important advice to writers, she offered a classic truth: "everyone's first draft is shit," reminding everyone that perseverance is key.Exploring "The Truth"The conversation also delved into her latest book, You Can't Take the Truth, a young adult dystopian romance. JL described the novel as being about the "transformational power of love." The story is set in a society where people use a dream-inducing drug called "The Truth" to escape their mundane reality. She explained that the love story between the main characters, Flo and Day, serves as the anchor for the plot, which explores themes of appearance versus reality. Her writing style is fast-paced and focuses on the core identity of her characters, making her books accessible and engaging for a broad audience. The book is available now on Amazon.

An in-depth interview with author and entrepreneur Phil Van Treuren, who shares how he built a six-figure self-publishing business selling stoic philosophy books—without relying on Amazon KDP.  

In this episode of The Entrepreneurial You, Heneka Watkis-Porter sits down with publishing industry veteran Michele DeFilippo, founder of 1106 Design. With over 50 years in the book publishing world, Michele brings a wealth of knowledge on how authors can take control of their publishing journey, avoid scams, and profit from their passion. She breaks down the evolution of self-publishing, revealing how independent authors can compete with traditional publishers—and win—by maintaining ownership, setting industry-standard quality, and being smart about their choices. Whether you're a first-time writer or a seasoned author, Michele's guidance provides a blueprint for building a successful, scam-free publishing experience. The Power of Self-Publishing: Profit, Control & Protection Michele is clear: self-publishing isn't just an alternative—it's a business decision. Authors can maintain creative control, keep more of their earnings, and bring their books to market without signing away their rights. But with this freedom comes responsibility. Michele warns against shady hybrid publishers that charge high production fees and still claim a share of your royalties. Her advice? If you're paying for the work, own the outcome—including your files, your ISBNs, and your book's future. Heneka echoes the importance of being informed, noting how many aspiring authors fall victim to scams due to lack of publishing knowledge. Competing With Traditional Publishing: Yes, You Can Michele debunks the myth that self-published books are inferior. With platforms like Amazon KDP and IngramSpark, and a focus on professional-quality design, editing, and typesetting, indie authors can match—and often exceed—the quality of traditional publishers. The key? Following industry standards and never cutting corners. “Readers don't care how a book is published,” Michele says, “only that it's well done.” She urges authors to purchase their own ISBNs through Bowker, which allows them to retain full control over the book in all its formats—eBook, paperback, or hardback. What You'll Learn in This Episode: • How to avoid scams and bad deals in the publishing industry • Why self-publishing can be more profitable and empowering than traditional routes • How to meet traditional publishing standards on your own • Why owning your ISBNs and production files matters • Smart marketing tactics for positioning your book as a business tool • The truth about bestseller programs—and what really drives book success This episode is a must-listen for any aspiring author ready to publish with confidence, clarity, and control. Tune in, take notes, and share it with someone who dreams of becoming a published writer—without the pitfalls. COMMUNITY CONNECTION: Now it's time for our Community Connection segment!

Hey Rainmakers! It's Chelsey and Stephen, and if you've ever dreamed of writing a children's book, creating a journal, or making money on Amazon without being a professional author or illustrator—this episode is your sign. We just launched our second children's book (woohoo!) and wanted to share exactly how we did it, step by step, using Amazon KDP. This is hands-off income that ANYONE can do—yes, even you! In today's convo, we break down the misconceptions that stop people from ever starting—like thinking you need to be creative, tech-savvy, or have a huge budget. Spoiler: you don't. From coloring books to scissor skill books, journals to productivity planners, we explain how low-content books are the sweet spot for busy moms and creative dreamers alike. We even share how a 12-year-old inspired us at a conference with her DIY coloring book! We walk through how Amazon KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing) works—basically, Amazon prints and ships your book on demand, so there's no need to buy inventory upfront. Whether you're using Canva, hiring help on Fiverr, or using AI tools like ChatGPT to help write the story, there are endless ways to create beautiful books quickly and easily. We also dive into two types of creators: the passion project folks (we see you legacy-builders!) and the strategic sellers who want to make real income. For those in the second group, Stephen breaks down how to use keywords, categories, and white label content to build a product that people are actually searching for. PLUS—we share the resource we love that teaches this whole process in-depth (linked below!). So if you've ever said, “I want to make a book someday,” let this be your wake-up call. You can do this—and we're cheering you on every step of the way.
