How to sell eBooks with Thinkific & WordPress

Thinkific is awesome but one major request of course creators is that you cannot sell digital products with it. For example, your course has an amazing eBook to go along with it, but how do you sell it at the same time? How do you protect it from fraud?

You will need a cart system and one of the best ways’s to do this is with WooCommerce. WooCommerce is a free, ready to use plugin for WordPress. Used by millions of sites worldwide, WooCommerce is a trusted platform for digital selling.

And best of all, WooCommerce has a host of great plugins to protect your digital media including watermarks for PDFs.

One of the most effective ways to sell eBooks with Thinkfic is to use WordPress along with Groundhogg. Using their WooCommerce extension and our Thinkific extension, you can see eBooks with ease.

In this example funnel, when a user purchases our consulting program, which includes a digital PDF eBook, their account is created in Thinkfic and they are enrolled in our course.

Simple!

What are the costs?

• Groundhogg is a free plugin but the WooCommerce extension is available both on its own or via their pricing plans.
• Our Thinkific extension

You can, therefore, be selling eBooks with Thinkific, and doing so much more in Groundhogg, for less than ~$15/month.

And best of all, you do not need third-party software like Mailchimp, Active Campaign or Zapier! This alone could be saving you hundreds, if not thousands, per year.
