Summary

This listing is for an Amazon KDP business created in January 2020 in the books and romance niches. Included with the Amazon KDP account are 58 paranormal romance eBooks. The top 3 books are rated 4.3 stars with between 100 and 170 reviews and account for ~15% of all revenue. The business requires minimal effort to maintain thanks to content being outsourced to ghostwriters. All of the books are written in English and then translated into German under a single pen name. The Seller currently only offers eBooks but states that expanding to physical copies and audiobooks could be an interesting avenue of growth for a Buyer to explore. The Sellers spend around two hours per week outlining the next books in the series, managing freelancer work, creating book descriptions, and marketing book releases. All content is created by ghostwriters, and all cover design work is created by the Seller’s partner using Photoshop and personally licensed stock images. Along with expanding product offerings, an additional opportunity for growth highlighted by the Seller is focusing on paid advertising. The Seller states that Facebook advertising in particular could be a lucrative avenue of growth for a Buyer.
