Nice thanks

It doesn’t because Amazon processes all those sales, but pays ‘you’ for the sale. Basically, they handle that pain haha.

I’m based in the US.
And was wondering how does selling books internationally? And even using amazon ads in foreign countries/markets affect taxes? Do we have to file extra forms during tax season? Is there a change when using amazon ads?

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Glad you liked it – yeah, no kidding.

Thanks! That totally made my morning to read that 🙂

Sure – if you do a Competition Analyzer Search, you’ll see the ability to do the unleash the category. If you still don’t see it, then be sure to contact support and they can check to see why you aren’t seeing it.

Awesome, well hopefully this article helped and glad to see you taking action. It’s a process indeed.

thanks for this useful article! I myself have a book in three languages and ads running on four markets (ES, DE, UK, US). I can say – even if the book is the same, the markets are so different! Some markets prefer my ebook version, others paperback…

The ads statistics are also very different. I am getting good impressions on the Spanish market (I couldn’t use Rocket for the Spanish keywords), however, lately the impressions dropped quite a lot with no apparent reason. Clicks are still quite high. The ads on the German market (did use Rocket there) are doing the opposite – the impressions are slowly growing, and so the clicks. The UK and US markets are not doing too well for now. Actually, my CTR for Spain and Germany is around 0,23%, for UK and US around 0,06%.. although I am bidding the same or even more on the English speaking markets…

So, just wanted to say that it’s super interesting to try get your book translated and see how different markets behave. I am still very new to this so will need to figure out how to “read” this data.

After reading this article I’ve now set up a Spanish campaign on the US market and an English one on the German market, to see if any expats are interested in reading in their language :).

Also, I had my books translated with Fiverr, BUT I speak the languages they get translated into so I can do quality control. I have the translator do a sample first and if it’s good (native-like), I go for it. The price is then much cheaper than using other platforms, but it’s still the most expensive part of my book budgets. I recommend you use Fiverr for translations only if you yourself are able to check the quality/speak the language.

Thanks again for this article!

Hey Jimmy, that’s awesome to hear and so glad you’re getting it. Also, happy to hear you’ve enjoyed rocket and that it has helped. Made my night to read that 🙂
