KDP Publishing 09: Read the Current Pricing Screen

Yesterday’s conditions and another book’s price are not evidence for the screen in front of you today.

What You Will Produce

• Objective: Record sales territory, primary marketplace, Select conditions, royalty conditions, and displayed amounts with the time of verification.
• Action: Complete a pricing review table without guessing values that have not been confirmed.
• Evidence: A pricing review with current screen items, verification time, decision owner, evidence location, and undecided fields.

Pricing Is Variable Evidence

The screen may show territory, primary marketplace, list price, delivery cost, converted prices, and other current conditions. Record what is visible and when it was checked.

Programs and Royalties Have Conditions

KDP Select, exclusivity periods, renewal settings, royalty options, and displayed estimates are decisions with current conditions. Do not turn a course example or another title’s value into a default.

Practice: Complete the Pricing Review

Write the item, current value, decision owner, evidence location, and verification time. Leave unsupported fields undecided. The goal is zero guessed entries, not a table with every field forced closed.

Where This Fits in the Series

Closing Principle

Current conditions must be read from the current screen and tied to a verification time.
