I am putting together my first eBook to sell. The question has been asked in previous years regarding what platform to use to sell ebooks. Does anyone have 2023 input on this? I’ve been investigating ConvertKit which seems like it would be easy to use. But I’ve heard a lot about Substack, too. Have any of you good people used either of these platforms/tools to sell your eBook and what was your experience?

Great question, Betty!

We just updated our Selling Your eBook course — it covers all the different recommendations! Definitely check it out.

Curious if any other FBP members can share their experiences, too!

Can I chime in with a question? Does the updated course mention mailerlite? Just curious if I should switch to convertkit, or will mailerlite be just as good. I keep hearing about convertkit lol. So, if I switch, I’d want to do it now before I build up too much structure in mailerlite.

Thanks!

Hey Audrey! The updated course does not mention MailerLite (good to know you’re looking for this, though!), but we (the FBP team) use and love ConvertKit for our email broadcasts and sequences. I think it boils down to personal preference, but if you want to try out ConvertKit, you might want to check out their Newsletter plan, which allows you to manage up to 10,000 subscribers for free!

Hi Ann,

Ok thanks for the recommendation! I’ll have to try them out.
