Every Card Seller A Publisher

This thing has interesting possibilities for card sellers.


Your Own Card Catalog


It may be a simple way for folks with lots of cards to move them
via mailorder, to existing customers.


The uses of the thing go far beyond cards, of course.

And, it looks fun to play with. It works like a simple version
of Quark; and a complex version of Publisher.

    Interesting.

    $4 = 20-page mag
    $1.40 each to ship

    Probably be good for people running small auctions, etc.

    Edit - that site layout is really annoying. And it appears their only customer is "Alive". Weird.

    Very interesting. I could see myself finally putting together a comprehensive catalog which I have always been interested in doing.
    Good layouts combined with some decent marketing skills would equal major $$$$.

    Buyers will be driven to the catalog page by:

    1. Inserts in delivered merch.

    2. Links in online listings.

    3. Search Engines

    4. Click Ads.

    5. Social Network sites.

    The buyer hits the page and orders the catalog, which is FREE
    to them via a $5.00-off coupon inside of the catalog.

    ...........

    The concept is already pretty big in Europe, but it is mostly
    used by politicos who want to deliver their message.
