Adjust the sliders to see how many books you need to reach your income goals. These calculations use Amazon KDP's 60% royalty rate for print books.
Amazon's printing cost depends on page count, trim size, and ink type. A typical 60-page coloring book costs ~$3.00–$4.00 to print.
Conservative estimate: 1–3 sales/day per book. Well-optimized books in good niches can do 5–10+.
