Dear,

We've redesigned our existing bookseller homepage tool into a new storefront product that gives you more options to promote your bookstore.

The beta version is now live so you can test it out and design a new storefront before the full version is launched.

We hope you'll take a minute to explore the new templates and design a storefront that's right for your store.

The new storefronts include:

• Four different color choices for your storefront background
• Choice of photographs to enhance the design
• Your contact information, including an optional link to Google Maps so that buyers can easily find their way to your physical store
• Promotions of two of your catalogs, which you can change as often as you'd like to feature the books of your choice

We've prepared an example to get you inspired, and you can view it in Bookseller Central. [Check out the new look for storefronts.] We’ll be adding new features and tools to these storefronts as we move through the year, and we'll keep you posted with the updates. If you’d like to participate in this development, please join our Bookseller Advisory Group.

Creating your storefront is easy! Simply sign on to your account and click [Your Homepage] and then [Create a free homepage]. Make your selections and add in any text you'd like, and then preview before submitting the final copy. [Read instructions in Online Help.]

If you already have an Abebooks homepage, it will continue to be displayed for now, but if you don't have one already, your new storefront will be live for buyers to see.

All new storefronts will be visible to buyers over the coming weeks, and when they're fully launched, you'll be able to add the easy-to-remember web address www.abebooks.com/home/Your User ID to your business cards, e-mail signature, and wherever you promote your store.

We look forward to seeing your new storefront live!

Sincerely,

Your Abebooks Team
