Excited to publish very soon!

I have not published yet, but am working on 3 books. This is very exciting and I am liking the program very much! the training seems like a lot at first. But, as the days pass, it is getting more and more familiar and becoming easier.

Signing up to Sophie Howards KPI Course…

Signing up to Sophie Howards KPI Course is a rip off. Training on how to be an independent publisher is made out to be a winning side hustle with the potential to earn big dollars. It's virtually impossible as Amazon is saturated with millions of publishers and even niching down 10 fold will not get you on page 1. So they encourage you to spend another $10,000 to get one on one coaching but nowhere is there any word on the other costs along the way for the many, many tools and apps you need. A total rip-off and has virtually bankrupted me. Don't do it.

Hi Vivienne, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Sorry to hear that you’ve felt disappointed and overwhelmed, that’s never what we want for our students. The KPI program is designed to give aspiring publishers the tools, strategy, and support to build a real, long-term online income. Like any business model, it does require time, consistency, and effort. We have many successful students who have seen real success by following the step-by-step system, choosing the right niches, and staying committed. Like any other business there may be some additional expenses to enhance your business which is normal in any given field. We do understand this may not be for everyone. Please feel free to reach out to our support team directly if there’s anything we can do to help further. Best wishes .

Everything you need to build a successful business if you use it.

I have learned so much from Sophie and her team. I feel the value received for the money I paid is more than fair. This is information that would have taken me months to accumulate on my own and is now all at my fingertips to use as I choose and when I choose. This will be money well spent if I follow through. If not, that’s on me.

It's not all that it seems

It's very expensive to join and then further expenses are required to pay ghost writers, cover designers and advertising with Amazon.

Also don't be fooled by the 180 day money back guarantee - it has very strict requirements that you must meet to get your money back.

Hi Vicki, Thank you for your review. We’re sorry to hear the program didn’t meet your expectations.
To clarify, the core KPI program is a complete training designed to guide students step-by-step through publishing, without requiring ghostwriters or expensive tools. While optional services like editing or cover design can involve extra costs (just like any business), we provide budget-friendly and DIY options throughout the course. The 180-day money-back guarantee is genuine, and the criteria are outlined upfront in the program agreement. It’s in place to ensure students give the program a fair go before requesting a refund. We do appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and wish you all the best moving forward. Best wishes.

Waiting on a response. No word in 2 weeks.

I purchased this service and started all in. About 1 month later my dad's cancer spread to his bones and his lymph nodes. He was then placed on hospice. My sister and I help to care for him and want to spend as much time as possible with him. Due to this change I requested a refund of my payment well within the money back guarantee listed. I have received an email stating that it was forwarded to the correct department for evaluation but have heard nothing more since then (that was 2 weeks ago). I hope to hear from them soon. I feel the program is good and the instructions are comprehensive. The timing for me is not good. I hope they honor my request.

Membership Cancellation Request

I am following up again regarding my membership. I have already requested—twice—that the contract language be updated to ensure my information is not shared with third parties. Because this has not been addressed, I am now receiving an overwhelming number of unsolicited calls, texts, and emails.

This situation has become unmanageable. Please confirm that my membership is cancelled effective immediately.

Good value. Very detailed course.

This a great step by step program for producing and publishing books. Good insight from publishing authors. Good weekly support meeting. Love the detailed instruction. Well worth the time and money to get started on the right foot.

This program is not for me and I would like my money back.

This program is. It suited for me and I want my money back. Each week I attend the Tuesday meetings and each week I feel it’s a lesson in futility. I really want out of this institution, it is NOT for me.

Deserving Accolades

I highly recommend Kindle Publishing. Their guide to success is very encouraging and straight forward to follow. Thank you Kindle for the great work! In fact I'm in the throws of publishing yet another book and wouldn't have it any other way, knowing how professional Kindle is, even an optional review!

Very useful, but room for improvement

The company has a great intro set-up, and the available courses are very useful, but the weekly Q&A is only useful if you have specific questions, and I've had trouble logging into the other weekly calls due to time difference. I think it would be great if Sophie could highlight students who couldn't afford to join KP-Express as well as those who could. That said, I'm just approaching my first book publication, so this will likely smooth out as I go. Thank you.
