The Khanid Bookstore has published its monthly results on its website here (igb compatible).
The main results are (with in brackets the results for the Palas franchise): Sales Volume (pieces): 1484 (6) Turnover (millions) : 927 (0) ASP (ISK) : 621,046 (103,950) EPS (ISK) : 84,349
The results show a resurgence in sales in the first 10 days of the month, caused by the pricing experiment started at the beginning of the month. Phase 2 of that has started on December 1st and the results of that will be published later. For more information on this, please check the website. While we are happy with a turnover approaching 1B on a monthly basis we have no illusions that next month's result will be a lot less than that, now that our main competitor has lowered his prices as well.
The coming month will also be the last one of the Palas franchise. After the failure of the Parses franchise, we have to conclude that there is no room in Khanid Kingdom for more than one skillbook shop. Sales in both franchises have been low to non-existent. While we regret this, it was a good thing to try.
During this month we had to start a second court case against our main competitor for infringing on our copyrights. Like the first one, we have also won this case, and we hope that our competitor will stick to legal means from now on.
The Skill Package In our efforts to make learning as convenient as possible for our customers, the Khanid Bookstore is proud to present the concept of the Skill Package. A Skill Package is a group of skillbooks that belong together, based on a specific ship loadout, the subject of the skills, or the certificate that requires them. As our new offering we make it possible for pilots to order the complete set in one action, getting a bulk discount in the process.
Examples of developed Skill packages are: Improved Production Manager Certificate, The Learner's package, Helios Exploration, and Merlin Day 1 Mission runner. The currently available Skill Packages are listed on our website. To start with, we have developed 10 Skill Packages. Ordering a skillbook is extremely easy from our website and totally risk-free. After the order a contract will be made out for the Skill Package which the ordering pilot can accept or reject at his convenience.
The Khanid Bookstore: For all your learning needs!

It has been a few years since I was in the Kingdom. Like a lot of people, I based myself in Agil as a kind of staging post for making the move into lawless space and I divided my time between Delve and the so-called civilisation of the Khanid Kingdom.
No offence, but Khanid was terrible. One of the worst things as a relatively inexperienced pilot was the lack of skillbooks in the region. It was a shocking state of affairs, really, but I profited from it myself back in the day, and it's good to see that others with a bit of entrepreneurial spirit are continuing that tradition. I wish you well in your endeavours.

Glad to see that your efforts are continuing to bear fruit, and sorry to see that your competitor is continuing to scalp sales off of your hard work. ----------------------------------------------

Excellent news.
I have one request; please change Rex to Dex in your Acknowledgements section on the packages page.
As well as one question, is it possible to directly invest?

My apologies to Dex Nederland for misspelling his name. It has been corrected on our website.
On your interest in investment possibilities. At the moment our cash position is such that no new capital is needed. I am both grateful for and honoured by your offer and if the situation changes, I will most certainly contact you.

I like the idea of these skill packages. With the new certificates system allowing purchasers to make one "batch" of purchases for an improved certificate is a wonderful idea. The value of an education will benefit a persons life and bring forth understanding allowing them to serve God to their maximum potential. I commend you for your services to the citizens of your region.
