Sales and distribution channels

It’s never been easier to get your book out to your readers, whether you hope for lots of sales or just want a small number of copies for family and friends.

With self-publishing, the promotions, the PR, the book-signings are do-it-yourself projects. We’ll format your book, make it pretty, print it and make it available — the rest is up to you. Get started by listing your book with our onlines sales avenues.

Retail Channels

Amazon.com — Your book will be available to millions of customers on Amazon.com. It is listed at no charge as soon as it is print-ready — unless you opt out. Most readers’ orders are printed and shipped in two business days. Customers ordering from Amazon.com can take advantage of Super Saver Shipping, One-Day Shipping, 1-Click® ordering, and Amazon Prime® on eligible orders.

Amazon.com aStore — An optional aStore through Amazon Associates allows you to sell directly to your customers from your own website. Customize your page to look like part of your site and give customers an integrated shopping experience. Find out more here.

Wholesale Channels

CreateSpace’s Expanded Distribution Channel — Reach more customers and sell more of your books through more outlets: retailers, bookstores, libraries, academic institutions, wholesalers and distributors.

Books must be upgraded to CreateSpace's Pro Plan (annual fee required) in order to gain access to the Expanded Distribution Channel (EDC). Titles must also meet certain eligibility requirements in order to be distributed through the EDC.

R.R. Bowker's Books in Print
Your book is listed in Books in Print as soon as it is print-ready. R.R. Bowker has been the industry’s largest bibliographic resource for professionals for over 130 years. Books In Print is the de facto method for book retailers and libraries to learn about and gain access to any book on the market.

Private distribution

When you sign up, you may choose not to list your book for sale to the public. You can order as few or as many copies as you need at your wholesale price through Three Moons Media. Resell them, package them with other materials, distribute them to employees or organization members, or just give them as gifts — it’s up to you.

Print-on-demand is the perfect solution for many kinds of small print runs — family histories, fundraiser premiums, membership directories, corporate documents, confidential or proprietary materials, reunion memory books, software manuals — any type of book where you want to keep control of how many are printed and where they are circulated.

Ordering your own books

Just call or email Three Moons Media. We’ll get the printing and shipping cost of your order, accept your payment through PayPal, and place your order with CreateSpace. Most orders ship within just a few days. Do allow plenty of time, usually at least two weeks, if you place a large order and need it to arrive by a specific date.
