Re: Lulu Release 23.2

When someone buys a Hardcover book, there should be an up-sell option to get the eBook for a discounted price set by the publisher. This can be done in the shopping cart. For example:
Hardcover book: $49.97
eBook: $49.97
Bundle Hardcover Book and eBook: $69.97

Currently you only allow for one order at a time and no bundles or up-sell. A simple modification to the shopping cart is all that is needed. This will increase everyone's revenue.

Let me know if we can get this implemented....Thank you,

Re: Lulu Release 23.2

Scott, thanks for the great suggestion. We've had a few authors and staff make the same kind of "bundling" suggestion, which we currently have in our product backlog.

Unfortunately, I can't tell you if or when this will get prioritized for any given release.
