Book/Album ReOrder

I had a question about creating books/albums for clients. I was wondering if after I've created the book/album how can I allow their family/friends to purchase a copy? Can I do this through SmugMug or do I need to send them to the vendor who printed the book? I'd love to allow them to just click to add it to their cart on SmugMug so they can order whenever they want and get it shipped directly to them. My guess is my only option at this point would be to create a link to where they can buy a copy of the finished book?

I searched the forums and didn't find a question quite like this, if I missed it I apologize. Also if this is a feature that already exists that I have missed I also apologize, as I am very new to SmugMug (so new I don't have an account yet). If you could direct me to how this is done that would be great!
I'm trying to learn all I can before I take the plunge! :D

Thanks a bunch!!!

    The book will basically need to be ordered by you (the site owner). Since the book will require images, from your account, to be used. You can create a book and make it available to clients. Via an email link or text message. Or work with them to create their book. So you do the creation and ordering. And you set the final price. Once at least one book has been ordered. There may be an option to order more, of the same book, using a link. But this would bypass you (no profit).

    I hope this answers your questions.

    If we can be of further service. Please contact us at the Help Desk.

    Thank you very much for your help Steve! :-) I really appreciate it! I can't wait to get my SmugMug up and running. Just working out a few things on my end, with setting up my business and website and then I'm going to customize my SmugMug to match. So excited!

    Thanks again! :-)
