I operate www.calendar-updates.com. Visitors can download sport team schedules for import into their Microsoft Outlook calendar. All of my schedules are currently provided free of charge. Visitors simply identify the schedule that they want, click on it, and download the file.

I am considering a premium edition schedule to offer as a choice to the free schedules that I currently provide. If visitors wanted the premium edition schedule, I would want to charge a modest fee for the schedule. To do this I would need to set up a store of some sort, something I have never done.

I envision a system where visitors can browse through my site, adding schedules that they want to a shopping cart. If they choose a free schedule, there would be no charge for that schedule. But if they choose the premium schedules, each of those would have a charge associated with it. At check-out, they could have a combination of both free and premium schedules in their shopping cart.

Can somebody direct me to how I would set up such a store? I am sure I will need third party software for this. I also want to somehow provide immediate delivery of the files that they want to download, either for free or after paying for the premium ones.

Any ideas?


Thanks…

Greg

P.S. Sorry if this is a basic question. I operate this business in my spare time around my day job. Just operating the site as is really takes a lot of time, and I haven’t had time to research this on my own.
