How to purchase photos outside of smugmug

I am just curious what most photographers do to purchase photos for their customers. For example, I just shot a party for a friend and they want the photos displayed in a photo album. I found a site that does this and I realized that if I continue to do parties that I would probably have to use my credit card to buy the book and pictures. Is their a way to do this on smugmug through my site or do I definitely have to purchase the photos and book from an outside source? If I do have to purchase outside of smugmug, how would you recommend I do this?

Thanks!
Sam

    Book sales are currently not possible with the SmugMug shopping cart. You can take a look at our partners:
    http://www.smugmug.com/prints/catalog/P#More
    You can import photos from SmugMug to these partners to create books and other products.
    Blurb also allows you to sell books created at your prices through the Blurb shopping cart.

    This is great thanks man. Smugmug should do something like this so that my customers can build their books, calendars or whatever on my website. That way instead of me building them they can be more personal. Please pass that on!

    Thanks,
