christianbookshop.co.uk: Press Release 29 April 2013 (pdf, 139kb)
EDEN INTERACTIVE — the company behind eden.co.uk — have this week announced an online sales solution for independent Christian booksellers/retailers: christianbookshop.co.uk
The service is being offered free of charge to retailers and offers them a customised homepage that opens the door to more than 75,000 Christian products — including ebooks — from Eden. All customer service and order fulfilment will be provided by Eden with a commission paid to the bookseller, somewhat akin to Gardners’ Hive Network but dedicated to Christian resources and without the need to hold a trade account with the supplier.
The site is now open for retailers to register an interest and is scheduled to go live to the public on Monday 3 June. A collect-from-store option is planned for the Autumn of 2013.
christianbookshop.co.uk: Register an Interest
An interesting idea, certainly. It should appeal to small, independent bookshops. Maybe, if they extended it, it might appeal to anyone blogging for Jesus too.
