Ask CreateSpace to offer a boxed set option for indie authors

[Mohanalakshmi]

Would you like to see CreateSpace offer a print box set capability? They said the best way to gauge how many people this is would be to "contact us under their own Member ID's".

What I did was write an email asking for the ability to produce a boxed set of paperbacks. Let me know if you want sample text or have questions.

Would be great if we could get them to see the marketing capabilities/business opportunity!

Readers can write in via this form too: https://www.createspace.com/pub/servi...

Hmm..this would be a good idea. It would save a person from typing in how many copies they want and this way they could choose a box set/package and in hopes could save some money as well. I'd be for it, I'd love a easy way to get multiple copies of my book. I am not against the prices now but having it in a set like your describing would be quite beneficial.

This sounds like a great idea! Could you give me a bit of an example of what to say in the email?

I like it! Will write them...

Here's what I sent Annalise. Feel free to modify:

I would like to produce a boxed set of three books in the same series. Would it be possible to do that via Createspace?

My XXXX are published through Createspace. And I want packaging that would allow readers to hold all three titles on their shelf like people do with Harry Potter or other writers.

Let me know if you have questions or if this is possible.

I think that might be a nice idea.
