Where Should I Sell My Print on Demand Books?

If you’re an author, designer, or entrepreneur, you’ve probably asked yourself: Where should I sell my print on demand books? The good news is, with today’s technology and services like StationeryHQ.com, you can publish and sell high-quality books without the need for large print runs or expensive inventory. The key is choosing the right sales channels to maximize your visibility, profit, and growth.

1. Your Own Website (Shopify, WooCommerce, Squarespace)

Selling directly through your own online store gives you full control over pricing, branding, and customer relationships. With StationeryHQ’s API integration, you can connect your website directly to our printing system. That means orders are automatically printed and shipped to your customers—no manual fulfillment required.

✅ Best for: Building your personal brand and higher profit margins
✅ Control: 100% over pricing, marketing, and customer experience

2. Amazon KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing)

Amazon is the largest marketplace for books, and its Kindle Direct Publishing program makes it easy to list and sell your titles. While Amazon gives you incredible exposure, the trade-off is lower profit margins and limited control over paper, binding, or cover finishes.

✅ Best for: Wide reach and exposure
✅ Limitations: Less customization, competitive market

3. Etsy

If your books are customized, niche, or artistic (like journals, planners, or children’s storybooks), Etsy can be a great fit. Customers on Etsy are specifically searching for unique, personalized items. With StationeryHQ’s no minimum order printing, you can test multiple designs without risk.

✅ Best for: Creative and personalized books
✅ Advantage: Established audience seeking unique designs

4. Bookstores and Local Shops

Independent bookstores, gift shops, and boutiques are excellent outlets for smaller runs of specialty books. Whether you create photo books, wedding guest books, or children’s books, local distribution builds credibility and community support.

✅ Best for: Local authors and niche audiences
✅ Tip: Use StationeryHQ for short-run printing to supply local shops affordably

5. Social Media Shops (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook)

Social media has become a powerful sales channel for authors and creators. With a strong following, you can link directly to your products, showcase your designs, and sell books through Instagram Shops or Facebook Shops. This works especially well for visually appealing products like journals, planners, and sketchbooks.

✅ Best for: Authors with engaged audiences
✅ Strength: Direct connection with fans and buyers
