Established Amazon KDP Educational Workbook Business with Organic Sales
This business, launched over a decade ago and operating primarily through Amazon KDP, offers a well-established portfolio of educational workbooks designed to help students prepare for standardized testing in math and reading. All titles are original, fully owned by the seller, and published under a respected brand with a long-standing reputation among teachers, parents, and schools. The business benefits from Amazon’s print-on-demand model, meaning no inventory or logistics are required. Once a book is purchased, it is automatically printed and shipped by Amazon, providing a reliable, low-effort revenue stream. A supplementary Shopify storefront exists but accounts for a minority of sales; most purchases occur organically through Amazon's platform. No paid advertising or email marketing is currently in place—sales come from organic discoverability and word-of-mouth referrals, with occasional large manual orders from repeat institutional buyers. The owner estimates current involvement at under one hour per week, primarily for order processing and customer service on rare occasions. Recent updates to core titles ensure alignment with updated educational standards, and additional opportunities exist to expand the catalog to new grade levels, regions, or subject areas. The business experiences some seasonality based on the academic calendar, with revenue peaks typically aligning with testing and back-to-school periods. This listing is ideal for a buyer seeking a passive, home-based income stream with strong fundamentals and untapped growth potential in both digital marketing and product expansion.
