Taking the Show on The Road

800-CEO-READ is celebrating its 25th year this year and we have sold business books in almost every conceivable manner during that time. So, we thought it was time to share some of what we know with others.

Jack and I spoke on Thursday in St. Paul, Minnesota to the Midwest Booksellers Association and next week we are in Detroit giving a similar talk to the Great Lakes Independent Booksellers Association. The final trip for the fall is in a few weeks when we fly out to LA and talk to the Southern California Independent Booksellers Association.

The topic is how bookstores can sell more business books. This publishing sub-category has a number of unique aspects when compared to other parts of book publishing. We want to point those out clearly and give booksellers some ideas on how to make that uniqueness work for them.

If you are going to be at any of these upcoming events, we hope you'll come sit in on our session. If you can't see us live, we have an article on tap for next week, based on the speech we are giving, that we will post here.
