Grim Season So Far for Online Booksellers
Another gloomy report in the NY Times again today. Though traffic is up at Amazon sales are down. Not good. I have had good sales so far this month but am I missing sales? Should I cut my prices to beat the competition. On Ebay should I offer free shipping? No – at least I am not – though on ebay I see a lot more free shipping. I just had one of my biggest weekends ever in terms of sales and am hesitant to cut my profits for more sales as even some of my very high sales rank books are moving. If only the books with very low sales ranks (up to 100,000) were selling I would make changes. Something to keep an eye on. I hope your books sales are going well also.
