How to send eBooks with Scrobbld Posted on November 2nd

This question has come up quite a lot so I thought I would just write a quick post on it:

Obviously you should be signed in for all of this.

1. You need to create an SKU to assign the ebook to. This only works if you have already received payments for a particular item (if you haven’t, try importing your order history from PayPal). You can create an SKU on the inventory page. Add the particular order names (from previous transactions) when prompted to your SKU (An SKU = stock keeping unit, and is useful if you advertise the same product but with different titles).

2. After you have created your SKU, goto the ebooks page. Upload a file, then on the right hand side of the page you can see ‘Add to SKU’. Select an SKU from the list in the overlay.

3. Now you need to enable a notifier (email) to send an email when you receive a Completed payment. Goto the notifiers page. Have a look at the notifier entitled ‘Receipt of Order notification’, and click on the title, which will let you edit the contents of that notifier - so change that to what you want the email to say. I would recommend including the ‘Account Link’ (take a look at the dropdown for all the different fields you can include) — this will include a hyperlink to your customer’s account page and ebook that you uploaded — though you don’t have to, as all outgoing emails include a link at the bottom of the page as well, which is automatically generated. Select ‘Save Changes’. And, finally, on the right hand side select ‘Activate Notifier’.

Then, whenever you receive a payment for your ebook, an email will be sent out with the generated link to your customer’s account page on Scrobbld, which also includes the file.

Of course, if anyone has any questions please don’t hesitate to drop us a line using feedback at scrobbld dot com.
