Sell Your Books OFFLINE! ๐ฐ
Holiday shopping season is about to kick into high gear, and one thing I want to remind you of is that ๐๐ผ๐ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ป'๐ ๐ต๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ผ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐น๐ ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐บ๐ฎ๐๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ผ ๐๐ฒ๐น๐น ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ฏ๐ผ๐ผ๐ธ๐!
People LOVE supporting small businesses, especially during the holidays. And if you're a self-published author, this could be a great opportunity to get your books into the hands of local shoppers.
One of my favorite things about self-publishing with Amazon KDP is that you can order ๐ฎ๐๐๐ต๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฎ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฐ๐ผ๐๐! Depending on your book's size, page count, and printing specifications, you might pay as little as $3โ$5 per book.
Now imagine taking those books to a local craft fair, holiday market, book signing, or community event and selling them for $20 each. That's potentially $๐ญ๐ฑโ$๐ญ๐ณ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ด๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ณ๐ถ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฏ๐ผ๐ผ๐ธ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ป๐ด, ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ฑ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐, ๐๐ฎ๐

And here's another reason I LOVE this business model: ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ก๐ข ๐บ๐ถ๐ป๐ถ๐บ๐๐บ ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐พ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ฒ๐ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐๐ฃ ๐ฎ๐๐๐ต๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ฒ๐! You don't have to invest thousands of dollars ordering hundreds of books and hoping they sell. You can start small, test the demand, and order more as needed.
Think about all the opportunities around you this holiday season. Children's books make wonderful gifts, coloring books are great stocking stuffers, and even nonfiction books can be positioned as thoughtful gifts for the right audience.
Remember, Amazon is just ONE way to sell your books. As a self-published author, you're building a business, and sometimes your next customer isn't searching on Amazon. They're walking through a local holiday market looking for something special!
