Sell Ebooks

Make a website, grow your email list, and sell your ebooks (and courses, and webinars, and coaching)

Everything is already connected in Podia so you don’t need any extra tools or integrations.

Keep all the money you make from your ebook

Don’t let the big-box platforms take 30-60% of your ebook revenue. With Podia, you can sell your ebooks in the same place you run your online business, and you won’t get slammed with giant transaction fees. Here’s what your customers will see.

No transaction fees

You wrote the book, you get the cash

Podia doesn’t charge any transaction fees on paid plans, so you’ll keep all the revenue from your ebook sales. Podia also has instant payouts so you get your money right away.

Build audience relationships

Connect with customers through email, chat, and your community

Collect email addresses, stay in touch with chat messaging, and make your own community – all in one platform.

  • Use Podia’s email marketing feature to get contact info from people who buy your book and anyone interested in getting updates from you. You can send unlimited broadcasts and automated campaigns to your followers.

  • When a customer lands on your Podia website, you’ll have full control over what they see. Podia’s point-and-click page builder makes it easy to design a website that feels like you, and your pages are 100% yours so visitors won’t see ads for competing products.

  • If you sell on a third-party platform, it’s difficult (or impossible) to contact previous buyers. If you sell on Podia, you’ll have all your customers in one place and so you can easily share new products and updates.

From adding new books and courses to sales page creations and automated email sequences, Podia’s tools are quick and easy. The time savings have allowed me to spend more time writing and publishing more books!
