I only had 6 books in my 9 months journey on KDP so far and was able to keep my A+ content up-to-date (and not too bad quality). I've increased my production pace and now I can release new books with relative low effort & time. But my bottleneck remains in updating A+ content across all marketplaces... The more books I have, the more time it takes, as I haven't been able to automatize it. The creation of banners is actually fast, but it is the updates inside KDP, for all marketplaces, that takes ages... Anyone has been able to find a smart way for managing this ??? Any extension ?? Anything with Claude CoWork or else ?? I remember reading in a forum @Hector Martín was able to release like 60+ books in a short time , how are you managing the A+ content for them ?? Tx in advance for any help !!!! @Igor O @Thomas Juuls @Hector Martín

I have a seasonal book on Amazon and I am thinking to give it more push by adding a video ad, I am wondering if anyone in the group tried video ad, and did it work for you

The days of getting 100 amazon reviews in a short period of time (unless you're selling hundreds of books a day) are gone. I just watched this video (it was posted back in January). I know this is from months ago but what an eye-opening video. Even just the idea of clustering should make anyone who uses any service where a relatively small group of people review from a relatively small group of authors never use these services again. Even if a service has 1000 books and 2000 reviewers the algorithm will be able to notice how unnatural that review would be. It doesn't matter whether I buy the occasional physical product (to try and trick the system). It wouldn't take away the fact that there is a connection and cluster of groups of people giving and receiving reviews. As I see it there are only a few ways to get reviews-: 1. a genuine arc service. 2. Facebook ads where you give away your book for free (and ask for honest opinion from pools of millions of random possible people who may or may not leave a feedback-, let alone a review). 3. Organic reviews. I can't think of any other way. Even the services claiming to be Amazon compliant are not really. If I have to pay to get the book (in order to get a review), it's a no go. I'd love to hear of other ways though (if they exist).
