Other Added - Book Club Sales -- Increasing the Odds
I sometimes catch myself having an attitude when I make reference to the tech crash that began March 2000. For over a decade before the market presented us with the greatest bull market in history. In technical stocks the eighteen months preceding the March 2000 crash served up winner after winner. There were signs the market was overpriced two years before the crash. The people who got out too early experienced stress with all the potential profits they watched go by.So if I give the impression that it was easy to recognize the bubble burst and exit, I apologize. I was there and I remember every day I thought t

There are many different opinions on how to select the best domain name for your business online.

You allow the book club to reprint your book in a specific language, in a specific format, for a specific period of time, in a specific geographic territory, to a specific group of people. You ensure in your contract that you maintain ownership of the copyright and of all other intellectual property rights, such as electronic, movie, other languages and territories, and serial rights – to name a few. Always seek good legal advice before signing a contract.
There are many book clubs, but most of the major clubs fall under the bookspan umbrella (www.bookspan.com). To find other book clubs that are appropriate for your book, do an internet search: on your browser, type in +(your book genre, e.g., cooking)+book+club.
The chances of having your book selected by a book club are roughly one in ten, which is really quite good. Imagine if your chance at winning the lottery was that great!
Tip #1 for increasing the odds:
It is important to know that book clubs are always looking for new ideas to entice their members, so if your book is well written and edited, has plans for professional graphic design, AND demonstrates a unique slant on your topic, your chances of being selected rise considerably.
Tip #2 for increasing the odds:
In saying that, it is important for you to know that the earlier you submit your book, the better.
Tip #3 for increasing the odds:
Book clubs are much happier receiving a typed manuscript six to twelve months in advance of your publication date than receiving a bound galley or finished book close to the publication date. A book club likes to introduce your book to its members near your publication date in order to take advantage of the reviews and publicity that you will be generating when your book is launched. The bigger the media splash you make, the better everyone’s sales will be.

“Oh yeah, I definitely feel out of my depth at times. But I think that if you don’t occasionally feel out of your depth you’re either not growing anymore, or you’re kidding yourself, or you’re not pushing the organization hard enough.” Comment in Unlimited from Grainne Troute - CEO McDonalds. Grainne has an HR background.Potential CEO’s come from a much wider range of business disciplines than even five years ago and perhaps CEO applicants can benefit from my real-world, in-the-trenches questions and experiences on both sides of the CEO fence. If you have had a career largely in one discipline to this point

Are you feeling that you are getting a raw deal in your job? Do you feel that you are being blamed wrongly? That you are being given more responsibilities than you can handle? That no body bothers about your comfort? You don't get any appreciation? That your smallest mistake is being blown out of proportion and you are made to feel bad? You may be getting emotionally abused? Are you getting a strong sense of discomfort? If yes, please read on.Before you decide that you are being victimized, please think about what is happening at your work place. If possible talk to few co-workers and tell them of what you think

Buying bulk can be really addicting. Imagine saving a few dollars if you buy a six per pack of a product compared to buying just one? The savings that you can potentially have can be really hard to resist.Knowing this, groceries and superstores have been employing this marketing strategy since time immemorial. Buy two and take 1 for free or buy three and save a dollar. There are even packs of items that combine products that are saleable and not so saleable and the strategy works. People buy things that they never really use on the long term.Most of these products are just kept in garages or in stock ro
Tip #4 for increasing the odds:
There are many categories of book clubs, so be sure to submit your title only to the appropriate clubs. Do not send your book to every book club that you can find. Each club’s membership has specific interests so be sure to submit your book only to clubs that might buy—you will again increase your chance of being selected.
For instance, if you have a humor book, it’s unlikely to be of any interest to a cooking club or to a mathematics club. If your book is regional, it will not likely appeal to a general interest book club, so submit that a regional title to suitable specialty clubs.
Tip #5 for increasing the odds:
There are rules to follow when submitting your book to the book clubs, so following them carefully should avoid unnecessary rejections.
Here they are:
- Send your manuscript to the Editorial department at the appropriate club(s).
- Include a cover letter that details the following information:
- summary of the book contents
- description of the book (size, binding, hard/soft cover, black & white or color)
- expected selling price
- number of pages
- number and type of photographs and/or illustrations (indicate if black & white or color
- notation if the book will be part of a series
- which volume the book is in an existing series and a sales history of the series
- intended publication date
- plans for publicity and promotion, and your intended budget
- Include a brief author biography written in the third person. Be sure to talk about any previous books published and their sales histories.
- Send photocopies of some of the illustrations and photographs. Please do not send original copies – they will NOT be returned to you.
- Don’t forget your contact information and website if you have one.
Unfortunately, you cannot contact book clubs to follow up on your submission. It’s a case of “Don’t call us. We’ll call you”. Book clubs receive too many submissions to allow follow up calls or letters. If they are interested, they will call
