Gumroad, the Kleiner Perkins-backed startup that allows you to sell anything through a simple link, is announcing some additions to its publishing program today, while also sharing some of its early success stories. Ryan Delk, who leads the company's growth and partnership efforts, said traditional publishing is "still operating on economics and strategies that were invented 20 years ago." Specifically, he said, "The power has shifted ? it no longer lies with these aggregators and marketplaces, but with individuals and their existing platforms." That's the kind of shift that Gumroad (with its ethos of "share and sell the stuff you make directly to your audience") is trying to take advantage of, in this case giving authors an easy way to sell to fans directly. Delk added that publishing is one of the company's "biggest verticals."Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/6xnfskzp20g/
