01 — THE SAMPLE
A leading Irish publisher, selling direct.
The Blackstaff Press is a leading publisher of Irish books, with a backlist running through biography, fiction, history, humour, poetry and sport. For a publisher, selling direct means keeping the reader relationship rather than handing it to retailers.
Kobault built their online bookshop: the full catalogue browsable by category and best sellers, each title with its own page, customer accounts and checkout, with free postage on UK orders and the Colourpoint imprints alongside.
