According to Academia Group, 87% of students want to buy digital content in store. It's because students know and trust you to have the right content, all in one place. It's time to make good on their faith in you.
The key to digital content sales success is printing in-store shelf cards. While selling online helps, it’s only supplemental. The best part? Campus eBookstore makes it possible for your store to quickly and easily do both.
This isn’t a test, a pilot, or proof of concept. The results are in; this system works. You will get more digital content sales, you will generate significantly more revenue and you will beat all your online competitors. This is the opportunity you’ve been looking for.
We’re not some heartless corporation or venture funded enterprise. We’re you, or at least, owned and funded by your industry leaders. Our ownership by the ICBA (Independent College Bookstore Association) and CCRA (Canadian Campus Retail Associates), means that we’ve got your back when it comes to enabling the digital success of your bookstore. The fact of the matter is we’re not here to take massive profits or build our brand; we’re here to make your store money and build its brand. Don't believe us? Check out our Principles.
With us you know exactly what you have to pay. You keep the margin on all the products sold; unlike some other options out there, we don’t play any margin or pricing games. You have the peace of mind of knowing exactly what you have to pay every year; a very competitive and affordable rate which even the smallest store can easily recover. The only thing you have to worry about is getting those shelf cards up in your store and selling as many digital course materials as possible.
Using shelf cards to sell digital content may seem a bit “old school” but ours are no ordinary cards. Shelf cards created by our system to distribute your digital course materials in-store are essentially theft proof and reflected in your sales numbers. We’ve integrated with all the major point-of-sale providers in the industry. For the record, they are: WinPrism, MBS, Bookware, Ratex, Sequoia, and Microsoft Dynamics Nav. You name it, we got it. If your POS isn’t on our list, let us know and we’ll make it happen.
We pride ourselves on how well our system works. But we know that sometimes it’s not just about how well it works, but also how good it looks. From our administrative panel, to our reader apps, to our customizable in-store shelf cards, anything we make is made with an aim to be as aesthetically pleasing as possible. Our incredibly intuitive interface makes it easy for you to load products, sell products, and help your customers when they need it. What’s more, if you can’t figure something out then getting help from our industry leading support team is just a click away.
