Listing Details
This listing is for an Amazon KDP business created in April 2019 in the books and news & education niches. The 2 included Amazon KDP accounts feature 57 print books and 26 eBooks for exam study. The top-selling book is rated 4.6 stars with over 500 reviews, and the top 10 bestselling books combined make up the majority of revenue. The trademarked business requires minimal effort to maintain.
All of the books are available POD through Amazon KDP and Ingram Lightning Source. No new titles have been added in the past few years and the Seller updates existing titles once per year by adjusting the covers to reflect the current year. The Seller also updates the listing content as needed.
The Seller spends around two hours per week on the business, primarily monitoring sales and finances. They also spend time checking PPC advertisements and adjusting bids as necessary. All content was created by industry experts on a work-for-hire basis.
A potential opportunity for growth highlighted by the Seller is increasing off-Amazon traffic by investing in SEO work for the included website. Exploring additional paid advertising channels could also be an interesting avenue of growth for a Buyer.
*In 2017 a competitor filed a fraudulent copyright notice with Amazon. The competitor was sued, and as part of the settlement agreement removed the notice against the Seller, and there have been no issues since. In the interim, the Seller received special permission from Amazon’s legal counsel to open a secondary KDP account.
*An opposition was filed against the Seller’s trademark by a competitor, but no further action was taken.
