The Author Helper Suite Help – Add Sales Price, Delivery Cost, and KENPC Pages To Your Book
In order to use the sell-thru/read-thru tool and the ads analysis tabs, you’ll need to add your Sales Price, Delivery Cost, and Kindle Edition Normalized Page Count (KENPC) to your books.
NOTE: This will only show up on the book pages as doing this calculation for all books on the front page is too much of a crunch on the server, especially as people have more and more books.
Getting your Sales & Delivery values – Step 1
Jump over to the KDP dashboard and go the bookshelf. Then, find the book you want to update, select the little menu button to the right of it and choose Edit eBook pricing.
Getting your Sales & Delivery values – Step 2
Grab the appropriate values based on your royalty percentage selection.
Getting your Sales & Delivery values – Step 3
Open the book record in The Author Helper Suite and click on the Book Details tab. Then, enter the Sales and Delivery values their respective fields and save the record.
KENPC Step 1
Jump over to the KDP dashboard and go the bookshelf. Then, find the book you want to update, select the little menu button to the right of it and choose Promote and Advertise.
KENPC Step 2
Scroll down to the Earn Royalties from the KDP Select Global Fund, look at the bottom of that section, and find your KENPC value. Copy that value.
KENPC Step 3
Open the book record in The Author Helper Suite and click on the Book Details tab. Then, enter the KENPC value in the KENPC Pages field and save the record.
Note on the books stats page for the eBooks + KENP column
Click on the Book Stats tab and you should now see a new column called “eBooks + KENP”. This is calculated as follows:
Current KDP-reported eBook sales + (current KDP-reports KENP Pages Read / KENPC Pages)
So, in the image below, we have the following:
eBooks = 1
KENP Pages = 2001
KENPC Pages (taken from image in Step 3 that I entered) = 271
Our calculation, therefore, would be:
1 + (2001 / 271) = 1 + 7.38 = 8.38, which will round down to 8.
Thus, I have an estimated 8 books “sold” when taking the eBooks + the KENP Pages read for this book.
