HOW TO CHANGE ALL YOUR AMAZON KDP PAPERBACKS PRICES AUTOMATICALLY

Amazon KDP sellers before Power KDP Automation were not able to edit prices of their live Paperbacks. This is a strategy that MBA sellers used all the time.

Amazon KDP sellers will now be able to come up with their own strategies, and take their KDP business to the next level.

How to use this strategy

This strategy, thanks to Power KDP Automation, can be used in a number of ways. Examples would be:

  • Use a high price during certain holidays, and then lowering the price after the holiday is over. This will keep sales going.
  • Assign higher prices to best sellers. As sales go up, it is advisable to use a high price. This will mean more profit.
  • Use a low price at the time of upload, then use higher prices afterwards. This will rank your paperbacks higher at first, and then Amazon KDP sellers can start making a profit.
