E-Commerce, Web Businesses/How to pay eBook resellers?

Question
 Hi Christine -  I have written an ebook called Importing Village Treasures.  My website is   www.importingvillagetreasures.com   The book sells for $59 with PayPal and I’ll pay them $25 for each sale they make.   I have several people who want to sell this book.  

  Question:  How can I set them up so they can get paid by Paypal when someone buys the book?  Do I need to set them up with their own website?  I don’t understand the whole computer thing so I need something _simple_.

  Thank you!

  Michael

Answer
Hi Michael,

I don't believe that PayPal has the option to track vendors and payments. You might have to set them up with their own websites. There is other e-commerce software that will do this, but with your price point, I am not sure that it is cost effective. Why don't you call PayPal technical support and see if they have a solution. Technology is changing all of the time, so maybe they have something new that I do not know about.

Good luck with it.
