Within four years, it had more than 1,600 employees and four million customers.  is one of the few primers to focus on this area, going beyond 'how to list' and 'how to price' to address such issues as how to provide superior customer service, set higher prices and offer better books, mail cheaply yet quick, and understand the discounts and sales statistisc. It's here where OTHER PEOPLE'S TREASURES really shines: Ravenscroft takes a realistic approach in calculating where profit happens and how it might not happen, pointing out how sellers can assess each book for maximum profits and discard those which are a waste to list, such as big, heavy books with small mark-ups. An essential 'bible' for any new seller who wants to readily understand the Amazon way of doing business.
