By February 12th I had uploaded over 300 low content books to Kindle Direct Publishing but, 125 of those were still in review status - some going back as far of the 4th of the month.
I decided to slow my uploads for a few days to let Amazon catch up and to do more research into the LCB business. During that time I watched videos on YouTube and read blog posts by successful LCB marketers.
By the end of the month KDP was almost caught up and I had uploaded another 50 books.
I did continue to design and upload a few books every day using the information I was learning. By the end of the month I was over 350 books with only 27 left in review. I also added another tool called Publisher Rocket to help with keyword and niche research. I greatly speeds up the process of finding keywords that are actually being searched on Google and Amazon.
So how did I do for the month? I sold 15 books for almost $30. Not a spectacular result but progress from January.
Up to now, I have been using content templates from Book Bolt and Tangent Templates for my book interiors.
While they have some great ones that I will continue to use, I also want to start creating my own customs interiors. Those will be different from what everyone else is using and, I hope, will make my books stand out.
I will be working on several goals for for March including:
Slow and steady progress is what I am after with this business. I plan to grow it every month.
