It's so refreshing to run into someone who isn't driven by greed and is transparent enough to be honest. Thank you.

[chillbuzzchill]

The vibes of such a genuine person. Just wonderful.

[DestinyManifeste]

Nice!! And you're right, kdp publishing earnings grows rapidly. I started seriously last year and hit my first 5 figure month in December 😊 Keep going!

[JeanettVeronica]

I am still amazed that my december income was almost 1300 dollars with only 12 books made. I have a coloring book that is really selling well. And I have only been in the business since october, so I am very excited for 2021 ☺️☺️

[jaburkhart]

Thanks for letting us know what the realistic possibilities are. It's helpful.

Hi Paul! I came across your channel yesterday and I just wanted to say THANK YOU for your amazing videos! I've watched a number already and every video is so helpful! I've already published 4 notebooks and just waiting for them to be reviewed and, fingers crossed, approved. Thank you for taking the time to create these really helpful, detailed videos! I'm a big fan!

[lnivil]

Wow! This video got me motivated to create more content in line with the style of my most popular books. Great video. Thanks

[eroticflow]

Paul, thank you for sharing valuable information with indie authors. May 2021 be incredible for you!

[kristinashumadieva]

Wow, I have just discovered this channel and I think is going to be my favorite one :) I am not doing KDP yet, since I have started POD this year which is waay more saturated than KDP so I am gonns give a nice big push in Q4 and from January, hopefelly I can implement your advice and do 1 book a day. It is quite cool that you choosE KDP first over POD - usually people are in POD and then some of them decide to give KDP a try as well. I was binge watching random videos of your channel and i have learned a lot in the last couple of hours. I like that you are a deep, detailed and thorough mentor that is not repeating himself in every video (like many other youtubers do) and u aim to keep improving yourself. That is an amazing mindset you have.

[zsofiavarga]

My sis and me watched this video yesterday. We appreciate you showed us your income clearly. It helps a lot, and it gave us many ideas. Thank you! :)

[mwiederrecht]

Your videos always make me feel like I could really do this business too. Thanks for sharing!

[nickygbabe]

I just wanted to say thank you. Your videos are very inspiring and have helped me find my niche. I like how you are honest about the reality of kdp and the work it takes to succeed unlike other videos which have very little content and just want to click bait you

[shaunnyr]

I really like your channel!! So genuine! You’re doing great! Seriously you deserve everything you earned

[andreeamariapetrache]

Ohhhh hell yeah this is a good motivation to go on and make something. Thank u a lot

[lifepurpose]

The first like from Morocco
Thanks for ur amazing videos👍🏼

[wallemon]

Hello from Detroit! Thanks for sharing your numbers and all the videos you produce. I just started and uploaded my first two books. Your tips have been absolute gold. Cheers!

[vagabonddeesadventures]

Thanks for once again inspiring. My goal was $200 a month in a year so we shall see where I am by next December. Diversification seems to be the key to any good portfolio so once I get my key words down I will look at other avenues. I am in the challenge and I think whoever gets the most work done should get a five minute conversation with you as the prize. Well even the top three! Happy New Year!

[amcybouamcybou]

Hi Paul,
English is not my native language. It is little bit frustrating.
Thank you very much for your inspiration and motivation. This video is all what I need at the start.

[edburgstrauss]

Thank you for sharing! Good to see the potential!

[spaizemunkie]

Well done Paul 🤓 I'm super happy for you. May 2021 be awesome for us all 😁
