Aerio

Aerio is an independent retail network built for book lovers to market & sell books direct to consumers.

Create

• Create a store within minutes. Literally.
• Embed your store on a website or blog. It’s as easy as embedding a YouTube video
• Already have a fully developed site complete with product pages? Just add buy buttons and a cart
• Make media-rich landing pages for your books with video, audio and images

Sell

• Sell books anywhere people hang out online—websites, blogs, and social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest
• Product pages, stores and cart are optimized for mobile viewing
• E-books are fulfilled in EPUB and Kindle’s mobil format, so no special readers needed
• Print books are picked, packed and shipped by the reliable people at Ingram Content Group
• Payment, customer service and taxes handed by Aer.io

Author Marketing

Whether you’re a self-publisher seeking another sales channel, a traditionally published author looking for ways to mobilize your platform, or a savvy publisher giving your authors new tools, Aer.io can help you sell more books to those painstakingly cultivated fans.

• Sell from any page on your website or blog with commerce-enabled widgets
• Encourage fans to sell from their sites, earning them real revenue
• Use buyers’ email addresses to further develop your relationship

Expand Your Audience, with or without Direct Sales

Already have e-commerce through your website? Suspect that you still need to link to retailers like Barnes and Noble, Amazon or Apple? No worries. Aer.io’s got you covered with Aer.io Plus, a retail enhancement that gives you more options for marketing and sales, and Aer.io Flyer, a premium marketing option that will help you hook readers across the web. 

• Create and share a sample chapter or two on your website or social feeds
• Collect email addresses within the sample
• Link readers to traditional book retail outlets
