Lulu has three distribution plans: 1. the one I'm using now. Free. Anyone can order from Lulu. I can order books at production cost to distribute locally. I get paid royalties monthly by PayPal. 2. Basic Distribution: $35. You get an ISBN#, a listing in Books in Print, and a listing on Amazon Marketplace. Anyone can sell books on Marketplace. Orders are fulfilled by Lulu and Amazon takes a 25% cut. This takes away most of the my profit. Not an attractive option. 3. Global distribution. $130. Listing in Ingram (largest book distributer) and Amazon. I believe orders are fulfilled though Ingram. You can upgrade to wider distribution plans as your circumstances warrant. For now I am sticking with the free plan. I will put some book in 21st century book store and maybe Revelations. This plan gives me the highest profit for my promotion work. If it were to start selling well I would upgrade to #3 probably. Michael ------------------------ Yahoo!
