Creating and publishing KDP no content and low content journals to sell can be a daunting process when you're just starting out as there is a lot of information to take into account and understand. There are also many tools out there to create and publish books on the Amazon KDP platform and it is difficult to know where to start. In this video I break down the whole process from the creation of a journal to the upload to the Amazon platform. I show you where to find the free tools, including Canva, and how to use them, breaking down the whole process into 3 stages - the book cover creation, interior creation and then, finally, the upload to Amazon. If you are trying to start an online business or want to create a journal to sell on KDP then this is the perfect start. Journals can be used to make a passive income online and can be done using a laptop or computer from home or anywhere in the world.

Thanks so much Paul. I truly appreciate your user friendly, down to earth instructions. I’ve created my first journal at 72 years of age and it makes me feel wonderful that this old grand ma has accomplished this, five years after publishing my first book. God bless and prosper you sir.

I've looked a LITERALLY TONS of videos about Amazon KDP, and this if by far the most straight forward, well explained I've seen! Including the fact that you don't RUSH through the step by step process. Thank you!!!

I needed this video three years ago. I painstakingly made my own notebook using Canva knowing nothing about how to do it effectively, and I haven't done it since. Thanks to your video, I feel more confident! Thank you so much for this video!

I created a notebook and without any hiccups I was published! I'm creating more. TY PAUL.

Thank you, Paul. I have been researching how to create a low-content book the right way for some time now. Everyone has great ideas but no one has broken them down like you or provided the much-needed sites to get things going. I just created my first book after viewing your tutorial. I am so excited there's no stopping me now!!!
-

I've self-published and traditionally published and this was very straightforward and easy to follow - I will be recommending your videos to my friends who want to start in making things for KDP. Thanks!

Hey, Paul. I'm a space opera author trying to finally make a profit by working on Amazon ads. It takes me months to write books. Now, thanks to you, I'm going to publish space-themed notebooks etc. Then I will set up other pen names to sell other-styled low content books. Who knows, this might fund my sci-fi publishing until I do make it as an indie author. You are a STAR. Did anyone ever tell you that? Well, you are. Amazing teacher, with a kind soul. Thank you 😊
-
