Can you Sell Print on Demand Coloring Books

Yes, it is fairly easy for you to create coloring books using a service like Lulu and then connect that to your website using the Lulu Direct app on Shopify to your website. This allows you to sell your books on both the Lulu platform and their network as well as on your website. When a book is ordered, Lulu will print a copy and send it to your customers.

Lulu have lots of printers and can ship across the world. Therefore, you can have a very large audience and lots of customers across the world.

And you can have complete control over the distribution, pricing and marketing of your books.

There are several advantages of selling through print on demand services. For one, you can get more money for your books. On average, selling through traditional methods mean that you’re limited in the revenues you can collect. Sometimes you can collect just 10% of the retail price with traditional methods. However, with POD coloring books, you can collect 30-40%.

In addition, costs are much better for you. Print on demand means that you don’t have to spend money on printing your book until after your book has made a sale. And then you only pay to print the books that are bought.

While traditional printing doesn’t require you to make a payment, usually the costs of unsold books are usually taken off earnings that are made from the sold books. And earnings are often only made after a certain amount of books have been sold.

Selling via print on demand on your own website allows you to earn more revenue from merchandise. So you can sell stationery and other items that might complement your color books.

Another advantage is that you can be in complete control of the marketing. Traditional publishing often means that you have to do your own marketing but at the same time you’re limited on what you’re allowed to do. With print on demand publishing or self publishing, you have more control over what you can do.
