2. The Problem We Need to Solve

Achieving success isn't just about churning out top-tier content; it's akin to baking a cake - the batter's just half the story! The final slice (or, in our case, content) is what the world's eager beavers nibble on and judge. Utilizing AI for content creation poses not just copyright challenges but also concerns about accuracy, especially for non-fiction works.

As for those who've tried jazzing up their work with AI-generated images, let's just say some ended up with pictures that looked like they went through a pixel blizzard. That's a surefire way to get Amazon to give your content the cold shoulder!

The million-dollar question we all ponder: “Will my pockets jingle from this? I mean, isn’t that the whole song and dance, right? Scour the web, and you’d likely stumble on downers like this article and a sea of naysayers. It's a bit like googling “mild headache” and ending up convinced you’ve got three days to live, instead of realizing you just need to drink more Water!

In business, as in life, there’s no magic Wand. But let me tell you, consistency and grit? They’re your trusty sidekicks. I am here to guide you through this maze, upping your odds of success and bolstering your confidence as you navigate through these choppy seas.

Let’s get going!

3. Choosing the Right Niche

Emphasizing the significance of this step is like saying water is wet. It's paramount! Dive into research, then dive some more, until you’ve struck gold.

While I'll be crafting a future video on research techniques, for now, let's shine a spotlight on two game-changing Chrome extensions you need to download right away.

First on the Podium - AMZ Suggestion Expander. Consider it as your magnifying Glass, zooming into Amazon’s suggested keywords. With its aid, my interest zoomed right into “short stories for kids 9-12”.

Next up is our Second gem - Amazon Best Sellers Rank(known as BSR) and Keyword Research tool by “Self Publishing Titans”. This tool gives a niche score, and if it’s flexing a score above 50 and an average BSR under 100K at a cool average price tag? That’s a recipe for a money-making machine.

The trick of the trade is scouting categories packed with fresh books by indie publishers raking in the moolah. Just glance at these goldmines churning out profits and being Promoted more by Amazon due to BSR.

Now that this niche got our stamp of approval! Onward to our next adventure!

4. Crafting Content with ChatGpt

Time to don our thinking caps and brainstorm a catchy title for our masterpiece! My top tip? Put Gpt-4 at the top of your list.

Kicking off the title hunt for our young readers, we’ve stumbled upon some nifty suggestions. A little birdie told me that parents of kiddos in this age range are always on the hunt for stories that pack a confidence punch and spill the beans on life lessons. My own parents played that tune and, though the younger me wasn’t exactly head over heels for it, we’re crafting for parents with the exact mindset.

With our title all set, it's time to summon our AI genie for a chapter roadmap. How does a compilation of 10 stories, each inspired by a unique life lesson sound?

Enough with the wisdom download! Our Outline’s shaping up quite nicely. With our outline in HAND, it's time to introduce you to another brilliant Chrome sidekick named 'Prompt Storm' to help craft our tale. Prepare to be amazed!

Navigate to the fiction writing section via the dropdowns, and plug-in details for your inaugural chapter. Tweak it to our taste and watch it work its Charm, shooting Relevant queries to piece together an engaging story. If you're stumped by a question, let the AI take a wild guess. It's pretty good at that!

And just like that, you have crafted a perfect story for your book. Repeat this crafty process for each chapter, adjusting and refining as you go. Got a Vivid scene in mind? Feed it to the extension and watch it bloom.

Now, time to address the looming cloud overhead - yep, this content screams "AI-made". How do we give our content a fresh, original glow? Let's hop over to a site named 'Originality' and, spoiler alert, our content flags as pure AI handiwork. But, here's where we enter into another tool called 'Quillbot'. Dive in, stir the content pot, rephrase, rejig, and... you guessed it, we're enlisting AI once more.

I'll make swift edits for the video's sake, but the gist is clear. No magic wands here. With the Core story in place, rope in other AI pals to sprinkle some authenticity on your narrative. This step is about refining until your content is undeniably unique and passes the AI sniff test.

5. Designing Illustrations with AI

You’re probably thinking, “Didn’t he just caution us about AI-produced images that are fuzzy, lacking in Clarity, and potentially copyright pitfalls? Why should we go on?” Well, stick with me, folks. In this segment, I’ll guide you on harnessing the power of AI to Create high-quality, print-ready visuals.

Let’s get started with ChatGpt and another nifty Chrome tool: AI Prompt Genius. This gem comes equipped with a plugin for mid-Journey Prompts, backed by the Reddit community.

I will take an excerpt of my story into this plugin, modify it as I like it, and create a workable mid-journey prompt. I will then shortlist the ones that I like and head over to Unsplash.com, a haven for copyright-free imagery to select a royalty-free image that vibes with our narrative.

This stage is pivotal because you need to use the image link URL or the image inside the Midjourney platform as a seed. This ensures that the platform crafts a fresh image for your story using the royalty-free image you provided as an inspiration. If you are a Canva Pro member, you could even leverage its vast library as your base. Personally, I'm a huge fan of Unsplash and it's my go-to for projects.

Last but not least, download your chosen image and push it to an image enlarger site “BigJPG”, a stellar image enlarger tool. This beauty banishes any traces of pixelation, rendering your images in pristine, print-worthy glory.

And there you have it, a step-by-step guide to producing crisp, clear images with a sprinkle of AI magic!

That's a wrap for this video and no, it’s not just because I’ve run out of coffee. I aimed to keep the initial part of this video series laser-focused on steps to churn out copyright-free content. My advice is to give this video a few replays and let the steps marinate and sink in. And let me tell you, those tools I’ve shared? Absolute game changers. I urge you to tinker, tweak, and test them to your heart’s content.

An important thing to know is that like most platforms, Amazon algorithms play favorites with newly published books, giving them a little boost to see if they resonate with readers.

In the next video of this series, you will discover how to seamlessly weave everything together using Canva Pro - just like IKEA furniture but without the screws. We'll also cover fine-tuning for KDP before hitting the 'PUBLISH' button, coupled with strategies to set your launch up for a greater chance of success.
