What is VitalSourceTM P2?
VitalSourceTM P2 is the system publishers and resellers use to manage their content once it has been converted to VitalBook format. Log-in to this web-based tool to access, organize, and productize your secured content:
- one title at a time
- bundled with ancillaries
- "shrinkwrapped" into collections
- chapter-by-chapter
You create activation codes for your various products, and then you sell those codes through whatever channels make sense to you. P2 puts you in charge of your digital destiny.
Make, manage, sell books in the VitalBookTM format
In P2, you set business rules for your products and generate "activation codes." Sell these codes to your customers through whatever channels (and at whatever price point) you choose. Your customers purchase these codes and input them into the free VitalSourceTM Bookshelf software. Then, secure VitalBookTM versions of your content download directly to the customer's computer.
You can sell codes:
- through your own website,
- through partner or campus websites,
- off the shelf or at the register on printed cards,
- through the VitalSourceTM Bookshelf's built-in store,
- or through any other channel you choose.
You are in control
Unlike other e-book technologies, using the VitalBookTM format does not lock you into someone else's business model. You set your prices, you decide whether content lasts forever or "times out" after a certain period, and you sell through any point of sale that makes sense to you.
Many of the largest and best-known publishers in the world are currently using P2 to create exciting new digital products.
Get started today selling your titles in the best-of-class dowloadable digital format: the VitalBook. Books in the VitalBookTM format protect your investment, give your customers great new options, and best of all leave you in control of the business of selling your files.
