Enroll Your Books in the 2011
Smashwords Summer/Winter Sale
July 1-31, 2011
We're kicking off our third year of the Smashwords Summer/Winter Sale, and as a Smashwords author or publisher, you're invited to participate!
It's summer in the Northern Hemiphere, and winter for our friends in the Southern Hemisphere.
To enroll your books in the promotion, please select from one of four promotion levels below: 25% off; 50% off; 75% off, or FREE. Once you enroll, customers will obtain your books using one of special coupon codes, which they'll at checkout to receive the discount.
Benefits of Participation
Smashwords authors enrolled in the promotion will receive placement in a special Smashwords home page catalog of Summer/Winter Promotion participants for the month of July, and placement within a special sale catalog within the native Smashwords stores on Stanza on the iPhone/iPod Touch, and on Aldiko for Android phones. These popular e-reading apps are used by millions of readers to sample, discover and purchase ebooks. Smashwords will also promote the event on the Smashwords blog.
