A First!

For the first time ever, a series of mine is available as an ebook “box set”! In other words, readers can purchase the whole series HERE on Amazon in one fell swoop.

To create the set, I began by combining all three books inside Vellum, the formatting software I use. Check out this cute title page I made using the illustrated couples from the three covers…

Stuff like this makes me happy! This page is only found in the box set (and on my computer desktop where I’ve been smiling at it for days). My three brothers and their heroines–together!

Then I went on the website Fiverr to find a graphic designer experienced in creating graphics of box sets. I provided him with the Sons of Scandal cover and the paperback wrap-around covers of all three books so that he could utilize the spines of those. A few days later, at a cost of $14.67, he provided this image.

Then I uploaded it to Amazon and–voila!

Why did I want to make a box set available?

Savings. The set is $8.99, which is a 35% savings over buying each of the three ebooks in the series individually. [Note: The box set is included in KU, so if you’re a KU member you can read it for zero additional dollars.]Convenience. The box set arrives on your e-reader as one product. Which means you can finish one book, turn the page, and seamlessly begin reading the next book in the series. Excellent for binge-reading!Advertising options. I’ve been learning how to run ads which has, admittedly, been challenging. I’ve run a bunch of ads to Memory Lane (book 1) over the past year and a half. But now that the Sons of Scandal series is complete, I can also now test running ads to the box set and the series page.More deals! This gives me an additional product that I can nominate for Kindle deals.Please share! Are you someone who regularly reads box sets? If so, what has been your experience?
