If you’re writing your books in English but only selling them in the UK, you should know you’re missing out. Bookmundo lets you sell your book internationally, and when you sell a book abroad, it will be printed and shipped locally. This allows you and your readers to completely avoid any logistical fuss.
Why selling books internationally is a good idea
The market for English-language books on the mainland is massive and growing, so by not selling your books internationally, there’s a huge readership you might not be reaching. Germany alone accounts for £130 million worth of English-language book sales. The best part is that you don’t even have to make any real effort to make your book available in Europe; Bookmundo takes care of that for you.
Selling your book in the EU
Bookmundo operates an extensive and sophisticated printing network spanning all of Western Europe. This means that if you opt to sell your book internationally, we will print and ship your book in the country where the purchase came from. This has a whole bunch of benefits:
- Drastically improved delivery times
- No pesky duties or tariffs
- Shorter distances between printer and reader, meaning less environmental impact
- Deliveries become much more reliable
All of these things come together to ensure happy customers and high royalties. It’s a win-win situation, so why not give it a go?
Selling your book in the US
Thanks to our interface with Amazon, you can also sell your book in the US, allowing you to reach a massive audience. Naturally, you’ll be able to monitor your Amazon US sales along with all your other sales channels in our handy sales overview screen.
Publish and sell your ebook internationally
The advantage of publishing an ebook is the convenience it affords readers. They can access their purchase immediately and the absence of printing costs means you get to keep a larger chunk of the retail price. Furthermore, ebook readers are usually part of a completely different demographic than people who read print books. This means it’s usually a good idea to publish both a print and an ebook version of your book, to ensure you reach as many people as possible.
Naturally, ebooks can be sold globally, and Bookmundo provides you with the infrastructure to do so. In addition to Amazon, Kobo, Google and Apple books, you’ll also be able to sell your ebook in the national bookshops of whatever countries you’ve published in.
Print and ship your book internationally
We’ve talked a lot about publishing on this page, but you don’t actually have to publish your book to distribute it internationally. You can also simply create a book and have it printed in another country, if you wish. This is perfect if you have a group of regulars abroad, or if you have a company that needs to distribute books or other printed material. This is a great way to keep printing and shipping costs as low as possible. Get in touch with us if you’re interested in printing abroad without publishing first.
