If you were with us at this week’s Self Publishing Show Live, you’ll be well aware of some huge announcements we had for Bookvault. Continue reading to find out what we have planned for the rest of the year!
Ready, Set, Box!
Throughout the year, we plan to add a range of Print on demand merchandise, allowing you to enhance the value of each order through your store. With direct selling options such as mugs, coasters, tote bags and calendars featuring designs from your books and characters, what better way to expand your profits whilst also bringing your fans the merch they have been longing for?
Of all of the prototypes that we brought to the show, by far the stand-out was box sets – having the ability to produce these fantastic boxes on demand captured people’s attention!
This overwhelming response was brought back to our team and we will be in touch very soon with more info on release dates and prices – we promise!
#TikTokMadeMeBuyIt
It’s no secret that TikTok has taken the social media landscape by storm; videos tagged with the popular hashtag ‘BookTok’ being viewed over 29 billion times.
This Summer, Bookvault will launch its TikTok Shop integration – the first of its kind in the industry, giving you a step up in this unique direct sales arena.
Like all of our apps, this integration will allow automatic fulfilment of your Bookvault titles directly from your TikTok Seller account. With Bookvault handling the fulfilment, so no worrying about dealing with manual fulfilment – you will have more time to write books, promote them and expand your audience on the app.
The Road to US Printing
Our pursuit of a US print partner that meets the standards expected by Bookvault has had many obstacles which sadly led to our initial target launch date being delayed.
But the wait is over – We can now proudly announce an official launch date of the 5th of July 2023.
Right out the gate, you’ll be able to take advantage of local printing on all the following products:
• 70gsm/50# cream
• 80gsm/50# Bond White
• Perfect bound
• Printed hardbacks
• Custom sizes
• Split colour printing
And we won’t stop there! We’ll continue to expand our offerings in the US, introducing additional bindings and paper stocks, expanding delivery to countries outside of the US such as Canada, as well as introducing further print partnerships globally.
Our Latest Direct Selling Integration, Wix
We are happy to announce that we will have another addition to our already expansive integration list. In the month of July, we will be releasing our Wix App, allowing users to list and sell their titles through their own Wix site with automatic fulfilment from Bookvault.
