  Why sell direct as an indie author?  
 
 

Dear Friend,

Any author hoping to sell books is going to want wide distribution — the more places you have your title available, the better the chance you’ll get sales. The good news is, getting global distribution is totally achievable for self-published authors these days, which is one of the things that makes being an indie author viable and exciting.

But in addition to global distribution, there’s a ton of value in selling directly to your reader.

Great. What does that mean?

Basically, that means cutting out the middleman (in this case, the retailer). By setting up a sales page on your website or on BookBaby’s Bookshop, you can link interested readers directly to places where they can purchase the book through you, meaning you keep a whole lot more of the money that each sale brings.

Ok, Jim. Thanks, but I don’t want to store hundreds of books in my garage and turn into a fulfillment center.

I don’t want that, either, and that’s the beauty of print on demand. When you sell through Bookshop, we take care of shipping your beautiful book directly to the purchaser. You just sit back, watch the sales happen, collect the highest royalty rates in the industry, and spend your time working on your next book!

But don’t take it from me — my colleague Joe Yamulla explains it perfectly in this video.

 
Best,
 
Jim Foley
