how set up a store?

Cathy, how do you set up your own store? I have one of my books I want to sell there, and it would be nice to sell or recommend some. - Ronni, designing fairy

Hi Ronni! First you need to become an Amazon Associate, which is pretty easy as I remember it. (The link is at the bottom of Amazon's pages) Then you'll have an Amazon taskbar viewable at the top of each page you look at there. One of the options on that bar is "add to aStore." You can either click that to get started, or go for a tour on the Associates site, and go from there. It's really very easy--they pretty much lead you through it, step by step, which is what I've been fooling with off and on today.

Then you can add links to your own book, if it's available on Amazon either from them or from you as a seller, or add other books or products, like I'm doing. I've always wanted to be able to recommend books all in one place, and this seems a pretty easy way to do it...

i like the visual connect--like, but not like. having a visible touchpoint is good for those who are familiar with your stuff--and will give the amazon folk something with which to relate should they go to your other sites.

hey--some of us function best on a visual level, after all!

I have to admit that's one of the things that Amazon suggests, if you do your own banner...and obviously, they're right! Thank you girlfriend...
