Opening a store on your own website can be a super smart business strategy, and one that many sellers have found success with.
However, there are lots of things to consider before taking the leap on opening your website store. You have to think about things like the tech, the ongoing maintenance, and how to actually get customers onto your site. I want to make sure that you have all the information you need before taking this step. That's why today marks the beginning of a new series all about selling on your site.

Be sure to come back for the next episode in this series, where Katherine Tucker will share all about what teacher authors need to know about sales tax when it comes to a website store.
