Almost A Year Now

July 1, 2008 Cheap Digital Ebook Store No Comments

This coming August, this website is going to be ONE year old. I don’t believe it myself but time flies and stirs the dust. When the dust settles, I can see that I’ve come this far.

Way too far…

Looking back, I can see that I’ve done some right things and some ‘not so right’ things and both carry different consequences. This is the journey. This is my lessons. And now, I know how to handle things much, much better. Or do I?

Should I call for celebration?

A birthday calls for celebration. A newborn call for celebration. And maybe, just maybe, a ONE year old guaranteed cheap online ebookstore should celebrate. And how do I celebrate it or plan to celebrate it?

Should I…

  • put up a firesale?
  • put a massive discount sale?
  • put up ‘buy 3 get any one extra ebook’ sale?
  • sell the whole store?
  • close for a few days?
  • work out some JV deals?

Now, look closely at all the ’should I’ list. Does it contains anything meant for your benefit, without hidden agenda? Hardly.

It’s like I’m saying to you,”Hey, I’m celebrating but I don’t think I want you to have a piece of my joy without paying!” Sort of…

Don’t you think we have enough of this already? What’s wrong with giving without asking something in return? Well, it’s even hard to do this as well because many still think you’re up to something. That’s the kind of world we’re living in now but hey, let’s suspend that judgement for a few second, can we?

What if, I still want to celebrate the First Year of The Ebook Store? What if I want to genuinely give something out? And what if I ‘pay’ to get people to celebrate? That would be nice don’t you think?

Maybe I’ll do it.

I’ll let you know later, but for now, what do you think about giving without asking for anything in return in today’s online biz venture?

Look forward to read what you’re gonna write.

Until then, take care :)
