TikTok Shop Is a Goldmine for Authors (Here’s Why)
💰 Did You Know You Can Sell Your Author Copies on TikTok Shop? Yes… and it’s a BIG opportunity 👀 Last year, I personally generated about $14K in book sales just by selling my Amazon author copies through TikTok Shop. Here’s how it works in a simple, real-world way… First, you’ll need to set up your TikTok Shop account. I’ll be honest, this part can feel a little frustrating. The setup process hasn’t always been the smoothest, but once you’re approved, you’re good to go. If you haven’t done this yet, I’d start here. Next, you’ll want to order your author copies from Amazon. I usually recommend starting with around 50 copies so you have inventory ready to fulfill orders. Once your books arrive, you can list your product directly inside TikTok Shop and officially start selling. From there, the real work begins...and that’s content. You need to be consistently posting videos about your book. This doesn’t have to be complicated. You can do talking head videos, faceless clips, voiceovers while flipping through the pages—whatever feels easiest for you. What matters most is consistency. The more you show up, the more opportunities you give your book to get discovered. When it comes to shipping, I personally handled everything myself. I bought envelopes and labels, printed out customer information, and shipped each order manually. It’s not glamorous, but it works. There are third-party fulfillment options out there, but I wouldn’t recommend jumping into that until you’re seeing consistent sales, since it can become a bigger upfront investment. I got so busy with engaging the community I paused on TikTok Shop this year, but I’m planning to bring it back into my Q2 strategy because the opportunity is still there. Curious… does this inspire you to open a TikTok Shop and try it for your books?

@Rich Gomez yeah I know it is just one more thing to add to the never ending list of more things to do.I'm trying to revamp my books on there but I need to actually start posting daily videos again and that gets hard to do all the time.

How Long Should Your Book Be? 📚
This is one of the most common questions I get, the answer is… it depends on your topic. For most nonfiction books, a solid range is 20,000–50,000 words. That’s usually enough to clearly teach something, solve a problem, or guide your reader to a specific result. But here’s the key 👇Longer does NOT always mean better. I’ve seen shorter books perform really well because they are: - Focused - Easy to consume - Straight to the point If your book delivers a clear transformation or solves a specific problem, people will buy it...regardless of length. That said, there’s a business side to this too… 💡 More pages = higher printing costs Which means your royalties can get squeezed if you're not paying attention. 👉 If you want to run the numbers yourself, you can use Amazon’s calculator here: https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/royalty-calculator PRO TIP: During formatting, you can strategically adjust things like: - Font size - Line spacing - Margins This can help reduce page count (and printing costs) while still keeping your book clean and professional. At the end of the day, don’t focus on hitting a specific word count—focus on delivering value. That’s what actually sells books 💰

@Diane Dwyer still publish in all formats if you can just price the hardcover much higher the idea is to make people choose the paperback instead of the hardback or ebook
