Book publicity Myth --
The Best place to Sell Books is a autograph album Store
Judy Cullins
2001

When most people think of buying books they think of
bookstores. promotion guru, John Kremer, author of
1001 Ways to make known Your compilation says "I'm glad I
don't rely on retail "brick and mortar" bookstore sales
for my income, but it will be nice to amass that icing on
the cake into my cash flow again."

In the similar to three years, John has sold 45,000 copies of
his book, many from non-traditional publicity strategies;
his web site, his eMagazine which offers tips, products and
seminars, specialty stores, foreign markets, libraries, and
back of the room sales. Because he is a qualified name,
he and supplementary bestsellers by famous authors get a lot of shelf
space in the bookstore--cover side out. For your lesser-known
book, and no-one else your spine will show and after three months of
initial placement, your lp will fade away unless you put
on your marketing cap to get customers to the store.

In one tape coaching session, a extra client thought he wanted
to sell to the bookstores. I asked him who was his particular
audience. He said event people. What kind of situation
people? attain these people go to the "brick and mortar" bookstore
for a situation book? Or, will they be more likely to visit a
particular concern Web site for specific kinds of concern books?

DID YOU KNOW?
*Seventy percent of US adults haven't been in a bookstore
for the last 5 years
*Bookstores sell isolated 45% of all books sold
*Bookstores recompense non-sold books to the author-think of the
Starbucks people dripping their coffee and scone on your book.
The author will get those returns.
*Bookstores will acknowledge 90 days, even a year to pay you for your
total cd sales
*Bookstores abandoned order two or three copies at a epoch because of
limited shelf space
*Bookstores purchase and no-one else from a distributor or wholesaler.

Why the big push to acquire a wholesale or distributor and acquire into
the bookstore? These people represent thus many further authors;
don't you incredulity how much attention your cd will receive?
They truthful healthy fees, more or less 55%. That leaves a small profit
for the author, and remember, bookstores, distributors and
wholesalers don't make known your book!

After her distributor went tummy up and she floating $160,000, one
author said she would rather have more direct greater than her priceless
products. She distributes them all herself now through various
venues that war her personality.

Authors spend a lot of times and keep chasing the improbable,
when the "golden egg" of self-publishing and self-promotion is
right in front of them. In my opinion, I'd sell my books everywhere
except the bookstore!
