In this episode of Children’s Book Marketing Made Easy, Harleigh breaks down how to get your Amazon KDP children's books ready for wholesale and into bookstores, gift shops, boutiques, and other retail locations.

Many self-published children's book authors assume wholesale is only for traditionally published authors or that they need a distributor to get their books into stores. In this episode, Harleigh shares two different wholesale paths you can take depending on your publishing goals: a print-on-demand approach using IngramSpark and an inventory-based approach using Shopify and Faire. She walks through the pros and cons of each method so you can decide which option is the best fit for your children's book business.

• The two different paths to getting your children's books wholesale-ready
•  The pros and cons of print-on-demand wholesale versus carrying inventory
•  Why Shopify can be a valuable tool for children's book authors
