After everything is set and I click “Launch campaign,” the page scrolls to the top, no error messages are shown, but it’s impossible to save the campaign. Is it only my issue, or has somebody experienced the same today? Also, two books unexpectedly got the status "Live. With unpublished changes," even though I never requested any changes. There were no messages from Amazon about it. I'd like to understand whether this is a widespread issue before I contact support.

It's so frustrating to spend weeks writing a book, designing the perfect cover in Canva, and then watching your daily budget evaporate on Amazon Ads with zero sales to show for it. I was losing money on clicks until I realized my targeting was completely wrong. I stopped bidding on highly competitive keywords and deployed 'The Quiet Prospector' strategy. I used Igor's clustering method to find niche anomalies with BSRs around 30,000 but zero reviews. The prospector silently identifies these hidden gaps so my books rank organically without me having to bleed cash on PPC. Are you guys struggling more with getting the initial reviews, or keeping ACOS profitable?

I wanted to share a small milestone I'm genuinely grateful for—I recently reached Top Rated on Upwork. Looking back, it wasn't one big breakthrough that got me here. It was a lot of small improvements repeated over time: writing better proposals, communicating clearly, meeting deadlines, listening to client feedback, and always trying to leave every project a little better than I found it. One lesson that surprised me is that clients rarely hire the person who talks the most about themselves. They hire the person who understands their problem and explains how they'll solve it. That mindset changed the way I approach both my work and my proposals. I'm grateful to every client who trusted me with their publishing projects and to communities like this one where I've continued learning from others. Still learning. Still improving. On to the next milestone. 🚀 Thank you @Laura Diaz @Meggy Halfon @Igor O for trusting me with your projects

I hope the data in the screenshot answers this question well enough. This is just the 7th day of the campaign, and the conversion rate is more than 19%. Hear me correctly: I do not mean to say that reviews are not important. Quite the opposite, I am sure reviews are essential for success. But do not let the absence of reviews (yet) stop you from actively promoting your book.
