5 KDP Niche That Makes More Than Your 9-5 (Beginner Friendly)

today I'm going to show you five KDP niches that are beginner friendly and has a potential to make over 10K a month or so much more what's going on guys welcome back to another video so if you're new to the channel my name is Sean and I built and sold a seven figure publishing business and now I'm building my second KDP account so if you want no BS publishing advice from someone who is actually doing it then make sure to subscribe all right today I'm going to show you five niches that are beginner friendly but

also has the potential for you to build it into a four five or even six figures a month business if you do it right I'll also show you how I would approach these niches if I would go into it myself or maybe I'm already in it so let's get started a niche number one is AI coloring books now ai is still not perfect but it is getting better at a rapid pace so learning how to use AI properly will give you a huge advantage over your competition now this book from kite Fox publishing is at

8 000 in the BSR making 19 to 23 sales a day which means it is making 47 to 57 every single day in royalties now this is a bookbeam plugin that I have it is a paid tool but it does show me how much it is getting paid in royalties not Revenue now until recently we had to find freelance illustrators to create these coloring pages either on upwork or Fiverr and you still can do that it's a great strategy but using mid Journey properly you can get pretty close to something like this now these are

some of the images that I generated on mid-journey you can see that it is pretty close to these examples here now obviously you should still touch on the images to make it better such as removing the grayscale and make it more coloring book friendly however this is a great way to start creating these coloring pages with AI now how do you actually create these coloring pages with mid-journey so I basically just went to Mid journey and typed in Imagine minimalistic adult coloring pages summer scenes black and white no grayscale clear lines dash dash ar9 colon

11. and all you have to do is replace the descriptive words such as summer scenes with something like nature scenes or for kids or any other words that describes a scene to whatever scene you want to generate now in terms of strategy on how I would approach this Niche I would start by targeting niches that are easier to create with mid-journey such as nature scenes relaxing patterns those kind of images that mid-journey is better at generating and once the AI technology gets better than I would expand into other niches so in summary it will take

some time as you still have to practice prompting mid-journey properly to get the image right however as AI keeps growing the easier it gets to create these images now the barrier of Entry to this Niche is very very low so you will have more competition so you may consider running Amazon as to stand out and there's a lot of debate on whether you can use mid-journey images for KDP my honest thought to that is as long as the book quality is good and it's serving the customer then it doesn't really matter if you use AI

or real illustrator to create the pages if the customers are happy then Amazon will be happy to but if this scares you then you might like the next Niche better Niche number two is activity books the reason why I love activity books is because of the repeat purchase potential often customers who likes these kind of books keeps buying more and more and more you can also create many different types of activity books such as mazes puzzles word search dot to dot or you can mix them all into one huge activity book once again going back

to kite Fox publishing they have a anxiety relief word search for adults and it's making 52 to 62 dollars every single day now in terms of the actual content it is literally just a word search with some quotes over it and a floral pattern background this is something that you can easily make yourself in terms of strategy on how I would approach this Niche is that I would just test a bunch of different niches because it's so easy to create it's basically free to create these books once you learn how to do it so I

would just test a bunch such as like animal word search nature word search sports entertainment and just a bunch of different themes and after seeing what kind of books do well I would just keep making those so how do you make these books well first you need to generate the word search puzzle which the easiest way to do this is using a tool like book bolt so if you guys want to check out book bolt I'll leave a link in the description below low but it is about 20 a month and you can create puzzle

books like word search very easily once you generate the word search then all you do is add a text box above and type in whatever text you want to add in this case it is a self-care prompt and some quote underneath it then finally you can go to sites like creative Fabrica or free pick and get a nice background like a floral pattern background like this and you'll just add that to the background behind your puzzles and you're good to go so if you guys do want to check out bookboard or creative Fabrica I have

a discount code for both so I'll leave a link in the description below now the great part about this Niche is there's literally unlimited topics so you can go and create a book about it is basically free to create all you have to do is pay for essentially bookbot subscription and credit Fabrica subscription and besides that you're just investing your time and all you really need is a few books to really pick up and start selling and then you can keep building your series from there and create a full-time income now Niche number three is

adult gag gift books now I absolutely love this Niche because not only are they super profitable during Q4 where people are buying funny books to gift to their friends and family I just find it really fun coming up with ideas and creating these books let me show you some examples first one we got a cooking with meth cookbook so obviously it's it doesn't have the actual recipe or it's not promoting cooking with you know that but it's more so just a gag gift where you gift it to a friend or family and the joke is

that you know the book cover looks something like this so you're kind of pranking other people who sees you uh reading the book but the actual interior is just a journal page so you can see that inside there is nothing now this book is at 340 000 bsrs so they should be making one sale every day or every other day which means that it's about thirty dollars a month that they're making just from literally creating a simple book cover and a journal page in a journal interior which is very very little work so the next

one is the same concept but now we got cooking with semen and this one is doing a lot better it is making 47 to 56 dollars every single day in actual royalties in the next one we have is accomplishments of Joe Biden and the joke is that the interior is literally just blank pages so obviously I'm not making this as a political statement you know don't get mad this is just an example of a funny gift that you can give to your friends and family now this book is making about two dollars every single day

in royalties from a very simple book like this now this is a very easy book type to create because all you have to do is come up with a funny book cover and then basically the interior is a blank notebook which you can just get to the template from book bolt and use that in terms of coming up with ideas you can just come up with whatever idea that you think is funny but you can also ask chat gbt and come up with a bunch of funny book ideas once again for the interior you can

just use the template book world has for the notebook and in terms of Designing the book covers it seems like a lot of the examples that I showed you they just designed it themselves using canva book bolt or just outsources it very cheaply on Fiverr as well now in terms of strategy volume will be important because each book as you can see does not make a ton so you'll have to make multiple books and those income will stack up the great way to get ideas besides chat GPT is to go into Pinterest you can also

go to Etsy and look up funny GIFs and you can often get a bunch of ideas from there that you can apply into your books now before we move on to Niche number four are you looking to unleash your creativity and create stunning designs without the hassle of expensive software and hours of learning will look no further than Kittle the most intuitive design platform out there Kittle works right in your browser it's complete with fonts illustration Library pre-made templates Advanced editing tools and much more with AI directly integrated into the editor KIRO is the only

platform that delivers unmatched speed and a seamless workflow allowing users to create powerful Vector designs within a matter of minutes you can try it yourself and get free access by clicking the link in the description so kiddo is actually an amazing resource to make these kind of books that I've been showing you so thank you kiddo for sponsoring this segment of the video alright Niche number four is guided meditation books now this Niche is a little different than others because we're going to be focusing on audiobooks on Audible because you can sell guided meditation books

on KDP ebook and KDP print as well but the majority of sales will come from the audiobook so this book on Audible got a meditation bundle for Sleep relaxation stress reduction and Anxiety Relief is making 30 to 48 dollars every single day in royalties This Book 15 guided meditations for your root Sacro and a solar plexus chakras uh it does not show how much it's making so bookbeam once again is glitching a little bit but a 40 000 BSR it should be making couple hundred dollars a month so I found this book's ebook version on

Amazon and if you look inside it's literally just a very simple got a meditation script and it is written in a way that you can just follow along and for the audiobook narrator to read it along as well like right here you can see that feel the waves of energy pull you down deeper into this reality feel the base of your spine feel your feet you're one with the Earth 20 minute Bill powerful on so it's really just a guided meditation script now how do you make this well you can go to chatgpt once again

to kick start the writing don't just copy paste I always say this but you never want to copy paste directly from chat GPT but it's a great way to get started with the writing and then you can just add your own input edit the text from there now you can also get ideas from YouTube there's a lot of guided meditation videos on YouTube so if you ever wonder how you should write the book where you can just watch a YouTube video and essentially just model your writing based on that once again I always want to

clarify don't just copy the script from YouTube video directly into your book change it up and make your own version but that is how you can get ideas now in terms of strategy because the narrator will be reading the book very very slowly because it's a guided meditation book you don't have to have a lot of word count in your book I recommend writing between a 8 000 to 10 000 word script then sign up to ACX and put your book up for audition you'll get a ton of people auditioning for your book so just

pick the one you like and have them narrate the book it takes an average of one to two weeks for them to narrate the entire book but once that is done you'll have your very own audiobook on audible.com so in summary this is just one example of many audiobook niches that you can go into but guided meditations can be good because it's very simple and easy to create as well as there's a lot of smaller guided meditation niches that you can hit to stand out easily and make some sales but if you have a higher

budget and you want to take things a step further then you might want to try Niche number five which is high content books now generally when something has a higher barrier of Entry then you make more money from it because if something takes more work then less people are willing to do it which means you have less competition eye content books are the traditional non-fiction or fiction books that you see in bookstores this usually takes a little bit more time and money to create but because of that you usually make more money than lower medium

content books and it's actually not that hard to create these kind of books if you understand the process this author writes about productivity and time management and he makes over thirty thousand dollars a month in Revenue across all formats which includes ebook paperback hard hardcover and audiobook now productivity is a great Niche but it doesn't have to be this Niche think of whatever topics you like to read about and then go and search that on Amazon if you see other books with tons of reviews and a BSR of less than 80 000 then that is

a sign that a lot of other people are also interested in this book topic so how do you make these books well making these books is a lot easier than you think if you're like me who's not a writer who don't know how to write then you can Outsource it to a professional ghost writer for a relatively low cost you can use sites like upwork or ghost riding companies like the urban Riders just go to the urbanriders.com click on the writing package pick the package you want to order from send them the book title and

the details and then they will take over from there now if you guys do want to check out the urban writers I'll leave a little discount code in the description below for the book cover I recommend you either use Fiverr or 99 designs to create a high quality book cover I'll also leave a link to some of the recommended cover Services below now the biggest benefit to high content books is that you can sell it in many different formats as you can see this brand is selling their books as a paperback hardcover audiobook and the

ebook Kindle version as well but that is just on Amazon you can also sell your book and other platforms such as draft digital ingramspark and many different stores outside of Amazon so you definitely want to make sure that you maximize these income streams and if the book does well in English then you can even go further by translating into different languages and do the same thing such as selling it on eBook paperback hardcover audio and expanding that translated book into different stores so high content books is how I made over seven figures from my Amazon

KDP business but there are a ton of other people making six or even seven figures or more creating low or medium content books as well so you just have to see what Niche works for you best so hopefully this video shows you that there are a ton of niches that you can go into that are inexpensive even if you're a complete beginner and scale the business up to five six or even seven figures a year now I just want to add is that just because something is easy to do doesn't mean that you want to

put in the bare minimum effort to produce a book you always want to focus on producing high quality books that customers actually enjoy and gets positive reviews because that is how you make long-term sales so all the resources mentioned in this video is in the description below often with a discount code so you can get them at a price that you can't find anywhere else so hope you enjoyed the video and before you go if you're serious about taking your KDP business to the next level then I do have a complete publishing program called royalty
