A small yet powerful tool was added today to Publisher Tools at RoyaltyGuild.com: KDP Sales Analyzer. KDP Royalty Estimator is good for seeing sales for a period, but it offers very limited options for seeing trends. Publisher Champ is a great solution, but it could be overwhelming with the amount of reports it provides. To make decisions about the development of our portfolios, we need to see the key data and trends. You can visit https://kdpreports.amazon.com/royalties, open Start Date, choose Lifetime, and click the big button Download report on the right. After you save the report file, drop it into https://royaltyguild.com/tools/sales-analyzer, and you will see the most important data in a very intuitive format. The service does not save any data on a server; all data is processed in your browser. And it's free for everybody. Enjoy!

Just a brief heads-up. BookVillage will increase the subscription price for new users in the next few days. If you want to lock in the special $20/month price forever, start your free month of service today: https://bookvillage.pub/?via=guild and get two more months at a discounted price. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask @Adriano Ferrigno

In the last 30 days alone, BookVillage has permanently banned around 70 users who were relying on low-quality external services. In most cases, this means virtual assistants using already flagged Amazon accounts. It was users who would have continued paying their subscriptions and generating revenue for the service. But those users were actively lowering the quality of reviews. It's the first case I know in the "author-helps-authors" review sector where a company actively prioritizes service quality over short-term profits. What do you think: should every paid customer be allowed to take a risk, or should a service limit the ability to use its services for users who endanger others?

Finally, ver. 2.1 of Royalty Guild Market Analyst is approved by Google, and now you can conduct niche research in one click. The review collection functionality of the extension remains intact. If you are on a book page, you can collect the reviews and paste them into an LLM with the readily available prompt. If you are on an Amazon search page, you will collect the books' titles, BSR, review count, and price to paste into an LLM with the research prompt. Also, if you need to, you can save reviews and/or niche data as .csv files. So, two major research processes are now fully automated. Please, share your experience with the extension. Would you like to tweak something? To add some functionality?

We all need a lot of different photos of our books for A+ content – different angles and different book positions. We all want to be able to create video ads for our books, using different angles or showing a page being flipped. We need green screens to fit them into custom backgrounds in our video editors. It requires a lot of shoots and a lot of work. But what do you do if the book is not published yet and you do not have a physical copy in your hand? There is likely a solution. See you today at 15:00 UTC at the meeting. It will be: 7:00 (PST) in Los Angeles 8:00 (MST) in Denver 10:00 (EST) in New York 16:00 (CET) in Berlin 23:00 in Singapore
