Earn More with Stock Publishing
Reduce your printing cost by printing books in bulk and increase your earnings on every Amazon sale.
Unlike Print-on-Demand, Stock Publishing lets you print multiple copies together, lowering the production cost of each book and improving your overall profitability.
How Stock Publishing Works
Print Your Books in Bulk
Choose the quantity you want to print, such as 100, 200 or 500 copies. Bulk production reduces the cost per book compared to printing one copy at a time.
Prepare for Amazon
Paper2Publish helps prepare your books for Amazon's fulfilment requirements. Books can be shipped to you or, where applicable and arranged, prepared for Amazon's fulfilment network.
Sell & Earn More
When a customer places an order, Amazon handles the marketplace transaction and fulfilment while your lower printing cost helps increase the profit available on each sale.
Why Authors Earn More
Every Amazon sale typically involves several cost components:
- Printing Cost
- Amazon Marketplace Fees
- Amazon Fulfilment Fees (when using fulfilment services such as FBA, if applicable)
- Paper2Publish Service Fee
- Your Royalty
The biggest opportunity to increase earnings is by reducing the printing cost through bulk production.
