Today, I want to talk about the Gold Membership.
Benefits of Gold Membership:
- Access to Blogging Tools: Similar to the Silver Membership, the Gold Membership allows for unlimited blog posting. While we advise that you publish one blog post a week, the decision is yours.
- We will still loosely monitor the blog posts as we don’t want anything inappropriate being promoted on the website. If anything does come up that is questionable, we will temporarily take down the blog post and reach out to you about the content.
- Upload Your Books: As shown in a previous emails under the Silver Membership on how to set up your books sales page restricting you to Amazon, you can put other URL links in the extension link, such as Barnes And Noble.
- Note: Be careful as some countries may not offer your book from other platforms.
- Ebooks & Downloadables: Set your own price and sell your book as a PDF downloadable eBook. Downloadables may include drawings (some authors have drawings of characters from their books), music, etc.
- IMPORTANT: If your book is already being sold on Kindle, you are not able to sell it as a downloadable eBook due to legal ownership with Amazon.
- If your book is on Word, we encourage you to save it as a PDF before selling it. This will maintain the integrity of the content.
- Sales: You have access to set your own prices from $0 up to whatever you would like. Keep in mind that ChristianWritersBookstore may increase the price percentage to pay for the platform and affiliates. We will discuss our affiliate program in an upcoming email.
- Products: ChristianWritersBookstore has merchandise using platforms like Printify and Printful. As a Gold Member, you can sell your products on the ChristianWritersBookstore Storefront, either by adding the URL in the extension mentioned above, or by setting a price and once a purchase is made, you will be responsible to send the product.
- Another alternative that we can discuss is if you choose to design on ChristianWritersBookstore’s Printify or Printful end, everything will be set automatically once your product is up. We will discuss this in a future email.
- Paid Ads: ChristianWritersBookstore is now offering a service for paid ads. Reach 1000s of people with your book for a few dollars a day.
- Email Sales: Send out automated emails highlighting features about your book to turn casual readers (Facebook followers, blog readers, etc) in book buyers. People generally don’t buy after a single email, they need consistent reminders about your book.
- This is a paid service whereas you can write 4 emails (one for each week) for a month, highlighting your book and your story. This will be sent directly to people’s email inbox with a “Call To Action”.
How to Join:

We believe that our Gold Membership offers valuable resources and support to help you thrive as a Christian writer. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
