Your Complete Toolkit

Everything We Build to Make Your
Direct Store a Success

01

Your Own Branded Author Bookshop

We don’t just give you a checkout link. We build you a beautiful, custom storefront that looks and feels like a premium boutique. Your space, your branding, your rules — not a template marketplace.

02

Print-on-Demand Fulfillment

Never worry about boxes of books in your garage again. When a reader buys a physical copy, we print and ship it directly to their door. You never touch a box or pay for inventory upfront.

03

DRM-Free eBook Sales

Sell your eBooks directly to readers with up to 95% royalties. No locked files, no restrictive ecosystems — just happy readers who love your work and maximum profit in your bank account.

04

Reader Data Ownership

When someone buys from your direct shop, you get their information. Build an email list of actual buyers — turning one-time purchasers into lifelong, loyal fans who buy every book you write.

05

Seamless Checkout & Global Shipping

A frictionless, secure buying experience for your readers — with reliable worldwide shipping, automated international tax calculation, and customer support handled entirely by our fulfillment team.

06

Boxed Sets, Bundles & Signed Editions

Sell your entire series as a bundle, create eBook + audiobook combos, or offer limited signed copies. Exclusive, high-margin offers available only in your direct store — impossible to find on Amazon.

We Handle the Heavy Lifting
So You Don't Have To

We Build Your Shop

We set up your branded direct-to-consumer storefront, upload your files, and configure your pricing and royalty structures — ready to sell.

 

You Share the Link

Add your new Bookshop link to your website, social media bios, and email newsletter — inviting your readers to support you directly.

The Reader Checks Out

A fan buys your book through a smooth, secure checkout and receives their instant eBook download or print order confirmation immediately.

Your store pays for itself in Week One

The profit difference between one direct sale and one Amazon sale typically covers our entire setup fee — in a single transaction.

Their Profits

Setting up my Bookshop.org affiliate and direct sales page was a breeze. My margins improved instantly, and the technical setup was flawless.

Vera Flynn

Great help navigating the Bookshop.org wholesale setup. The process was smooth, though the initial inventory sync took a few extra days to finalize.

They optimized my direct sales funnel perfectly. I’m finally making real royalties per copy, and the platform integration was handled seamlessly.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Many will — and that’s fine! We use a “Hybrid Model.” We keep your Amazon listings active for discoverability, but we train your true super fans to buy direct for signed copies, exclusive bundles, and to support you personally. Both channels work together, not against each other.

It requires a shift in marketing mindset. Instead of relying on Amazon’s search bar, we help you use your social media, email list, and targeted Facebook ads to drive traffic directly to your highly profitable storefront. We include a traffic strategy in every package.

You don’t have to do the math. We integrate automated tax software (like Avalara or Shopify Tax) that calculates and remits the exact tax required based on the buyer’s location — automatically. You never think about tax compliance again.
