Rather than chasing trendy topics, target evergreen, steady-demand book niches: decluttering (especially sub-niched, like ADHD-specific decluttering), religious daily devotionals, Bible stories for kids and teens, chair yoga for seniors, and, distinctively, monochrome (black-and-white only) coloring books, a specific technique of taking an already-saturated topic in standard colored coloring books and republishing it as a monochrome version to sidestep the competition entirely.
Specific, named books are cited with daily revenue estimates pulled from Amazon sales-rank data: a decluttering book for ADHD readers earning roughly $32/day, a women's daily devotional earning about $100/day, a teen Bible stories book earning about $100/day, and a monochrome flower coloring book earning $63-82/day with only 47 reviews, despite flower designs being extremely saturated in standard colored coloring books. The monochrome trick specifically is presented as a repeatable formula: identify any oversaturated theme in regular coloring books (mandalas, stress relief, popular character styles) and republish the same theme in black-and-white only.
Someone willing to research demand data before choosing a topic rather than picking based on personal interest, and comfortable working within a niche's real, sometimes sensitive constraints (for example, the presenter is explicit that the religious niches should only be pursued by those personally comfortable with the subject matter).
The daily revenue figures are estimates derived from Amazon's public bestseller rank via a third-party tool, a commonly used and reasonable estimation method, though not confirmed sales data from the actual authors. This is the same presenter (Shawn Doughty) as another Amazon KDP entry already in this database; this entry's distinct contribution is the specific niche list and the monochrome-conversion technique, not the general KDP workflow. The video is sponsored by, and promotes, the presenter's own paid AI writing tool and mentorship program, a financial incentive worth knowing, though the niche research and monochrome technique don't require either to apply.
