I am testing a new free service that helps people sell products that are listed on Amazon in countries other than their own. I am so jazzed about it, I am speechless! (Well, OK, not quite!)
BookShow assigns a new link that takes readers to a sellpage on the most appropriate Amazon bookstore depending on where they live. I.e. If a a German buyer is looking for your product that is for sale in other countries, it would take them directly to your product on Amazon.de. The same link would take work no matter where your customer resides.
In fact, this is so miraculous, I don't quite trust it. So my poetry partner Magdalena Ball and I set up a trial link for our chapbook for mothers: http://bookShow.me/1438263791
We're wondering if those of you who live in countries other than the US would check to see if this link works for you and where it takes you. Maybe tell us where it takes you if you say, live in Denmark. To the French Amazon? To the Spanish Amazon?
I'd love to hear if you're excited about the possibilities, too. Either as a comment on this blog or by e-mailing me direct at hojonews@aol.com.
I think this is 2013's Most Promising Free Online Service.

It’s also been a great way to not only build a brand but to redefine it to a new audience. For example look at the recent success and press regarding Valiram Group Brilliant way of using social media and technology to build a following by expanding a luxury brand to a younger audience, without alienating your core customer.
