Do ebook preorders with Smashwords!
Benefits of preorders:
-
Sell more - Books that originate as preorders sell
significantly more copies, on average, than books that
are released without a preorder.
-
Smarter marketing - Preorders enable more effective
advance marketing of your book. Capture the reader's
order at the moment you have their attention and interest!
-
Same day availability - Preorders enable your book to
go onsale at multiple retailers the same day.
-
Earn higher sales rank - At Apple Books, the world's
second largest global ebook seller, all accumulated
preorders earned during your preorder period credit toward
your book's first-day sales rank. This causes your book to
spike higher in sales rank. A higher sales rank increases
the visibility, desirability and sales of your book.
-
Book Not Finished Yet? No Problem! - Our "Metadata Only"
preorder option, aka "assetless" preorder, allows you
to establish a preorder up to 12 months in advance,
even before you have a manuscript or cover.
