What types of books can be sold on this site?

Signed by the Author.com is open to the entire book market, both traditionally published and self-published. We do reserve the right to refuse a book with content we deem inappropriate.

What if I already sell my books on my own site?

Not a problem!  Our low-cost membership fee gives you lots of extra marketing benefits, including exposure to our customers. Listing your books on Signed by the Author is one more way to get the word out about your books.

How do I know which level of Membership is right for me?

Both Basic and Premium Memberships quickly pay for themselves.

At the Basic Level, selling approximately 15 books per year will cover the cost of membership fees, your packaging costs, and your cost of purchasing your books.*

At the Premium Level, selling approximately 25 books per year will cover the cost of membership fees, your packaging costs, your cost of purchasing your books.*

When you consider the savings of time, energy and hassle that Signed by the Author offers, the increased profit in selling signed books rather than directing your readers to other online sites, and all the many benefits included in your Membership, you will find that Signed by the Author is truly the best and easiest way to sell signed books online. 

*estimates based on average retail price of $14/book, $ .65 packaging cost, 50% author discount on purchasing books and personalization surcharges is applicable

As a Premium Member, with Signed by the Author fulfilling my book orders for me, how will I know when you've sold my books?

You will receive an email from Signed by the Author when your book stock level reaches two units. At that time, you can ship more books to our warehouse. Please ship no more than five books at a time, or the equivalent of three months' sales on SBTA if that is a greater number.

How will I get paid?

 
Signed by the Author issues quarterly payments, paid through Paypal.
