Thank you for this! I'm not an author, just looking to print physical copies of PDFs I got but really had a hard time finding good comparison between different types of options from different places. This really helps
Hello! Thanks for the video it's very informative. Only thing I would say is that on Amazon, after you publish the book your CAN order author copies to sell yourself and you only pay the printing costs. Also, if you buy your own barcode from Nielson or Bowker, and upload it, you can sell on any other platform. It's only if you ask Amazon to provide a barcode for you, you are tied to them.
Thank you. I decided not to publish via Amazon for the time being because it’s not possible to offer the video course upgrade through their platform. Also, their fees are pretty high in that of the 70% or so they you keep, you pay the full print cost. So the fees are calculated on the sale price, not the profit. If it was a black and white book, I’d probably consider it.
