What are the steps in getting a Special-Sales Profit Center?
The first step is to sign our one-page, easy-to-understand Letter of Agreement in which we commit to giving you exactly what is promised. Send us this letter with your payment, and two copies of your book, your marketing plan and any other information you have (reviews, newspaper articles, news release, press kit, author bio) that will describe your title and help us prepare your SSPC. We will then have a “brainstorming” meeting to come up with innovative new places in which to sell your book. Once this list is complete, we share it with you to stimulate even more ideas. Within three weeks of our agreement on the niches, we will send you the directory of Special Distribution contacts (discount stores, warehouse clubs, home-shopping networks, book clubs, catalogs), the current edition of a Book Marketing Matters newsletter, your instruction book and your Quick Start Guidebook, giving you a head start on getting your first order.
