Docstoc announced today that the Docstore is opening up their platform to the public. Previously only partners were able to sell their professional content through the marketplace. The Docstore, as previously mentioned here, allows users to buy and sell professional high quality content.
According to the coverage on TechCrunch today, Jason Nazar, CEO of Docstoc, stated that:
“One of the platform’s fastest growing user base segments are small business owners looking for free and paid documents for entrepreneurs, startups and professionals. Documents range from legal documents to real estate contracts to analysis to forms for business models.”
What this means for users. They can sell their documents through the site and for the first 60 days they will keep 100% of the revenue. After that point the revenue is split 50/50 between the user and Docstoc. There are no other fees or charges and Docstoc provides the user with reporting and analytics to track purchases. You also get live customer support via phone and chat, the ability to sell content in bundles for a much higher average sell, and you can embed and sell documents on your own website or blog as well.
Check out the Docstoc Docstore here, and follow them on Twitter at @docstoc.
