SELF-PUBLISHING SERVICES

SELLING WITH AMAZON

AMAZON

  • We take care of placing your books correctly in Amazon's market space, in the right categories, and with the appropriate keywords.
  • Avoid the process of individual registration on Amazon and related bureaucratic procedures, such as annual declarations, etc.
  • Skip the bureaucratic process with the National Library for obtaining personal ISBNs and sending copies to them and to the Legal Deposit.
  • If your book is in a language not supported by Amazon, you cannot list it on Amazon KDP.
  • The only solution is to become Amazon sellers with a monthly fee of 30 GBP. If this process is done through AKAKIA PUBLICATIONS, you avoid this cost.
  • If you choose to sell through Sellers, you'll either incur a large fee for the offered logistics by Amazon - in combination with the contract process with them - or you'll have to handle logistics yourself (Amazon sellers strictly require shipments to the UK within 48 hours). And of course, you'll have to supply the books yourself.
