In 2019, I started publishing KDP books from my university bedroom...

Since then I've:
📚Sold 60,000 Books
💰Generated £350,000+ in Book Sales
💸Made £129,000+ in Book Royalties

I now live my life traveling around the world, working from my laptop... and you can do the same⏬

How to create a best-selling book on Amazon KDP in 2026👇

1. Find a niche that is selling well

2. Think of a way of creating a book that is either unique or significantly higher value than existing books in that niche

3. Get reviews

4. Be bullish on Ads to rank organically

[Sam Barnes @samazonkdp]

3 months ago, neither of these two books existed

Now they're making me over $2,000 in a single month

KDP isn't saturated or dead, you're just following the wrong advice and using strategies from 5 years ago

@Victordapoe I've already started! Video is live on my YouTube

I'm building a $100K Amazon KDP account from $0 and documenting the entire challenge on my YouTube channel

Quick Question:

Do you want to see daily updates of this challenge and BTS of exactly what I'm doing here on X?

What sort of things do you want to see?

@JamesAllwinton It is until the slopes are pretty much just ice😂

I’ve spent the last month skiing in Bulgaria and this evening I fly back to Bali for the next 3 months!

Blessed to have complete freedom over my life… it doesn’t come easy but it’s worth it

You live ONCE, it’s time to stop being average and create a life you want to live

[Sam Barnes @samazonkdp]

@zenferson2072 I’ve spent about £50 on ads! I’m not bothered about profitability yet as I just want to drive sales to get organic ranking and then I will optimise ads and scale

[Sam Barnes @samazonkdp]

A book I published less than 2 weeks ago is already at 6k BSR and climbing 📈

If you know what you're doing on KDP, it's never been easier than now

Too many people are still doing what used to work, not adapting and complaining it's 'saturated'

There is so much to be made💰

[Sam Barnes @samazonkdp]

The exact strategy I used for this book is what I teach in my upcoming Publish For Profit Mastery course (launching March 7th)

@JamesAllwinton That trajectory is beautiful

[Sam Barnes @samazonkdp]

The New Course is coming along nicely and is genuinely the best set of KDP content I have ever produced!

It’s going to help so many people actually build a successful KDP business (no more extra $100/m), really scale only!

Ultimate Thread 🧵

How to get genuine reviews on your Amazon KDP books without risking your account being banned... and no, this has nothing to do with Pubby

Dropping later today🔥

[Sam Barnes @samazonkdp]

1 high quality, well researched KDP book per month between now and November can be enough to replace your 9-5!

You’ll either look back in a year living a totally different life

Or look back thinking ‘I should’ve listened’

The choice is yours

[Sam Barnes @samazonkdp]

@PeterHolmq59776 Being critiqued by the opinion of someone you have no intention of becoming is the biggest compliment you can get

[Sam Barnes @samazonkdp]

This course is specifically for people who want to treat KDP as a business, take it seriously and are ready to invest to grow and scale it properly

[Sam Barnes @samazonkdp]

My free course on YouTube (3.5 hours) is great if you want to get started with KDP and make your first $1,000!

But the strategy to build a $100,000+ KDP business is totally different

That’s why next month I’ll be releasing a course showing exactly that strategy step by step👇
