SPAN Webinar: How To Attend And Exhibit At Trade Shows Successfully
How To Attend And Exhibit At Trade Shows Successfully
5/24/12, 6pm E.D.T.
You can reach hundreds --- or thousands – of prospective buyers in a few days at a targeted trade show. The biggest US book-industry event is Book Expo America (BEA) and that will be held next month. Even if you do not plan on attending there are ways in which you can use BEA to further your career and sales. Brian will show you how maximize your opportunities there -- or at any local, state, regional or national show. You don’t have to pay a lot of money to exhibit – and in most cases you can profit more by not exhibiting. Attend this webinar to learn how to take advantage of many ways to reap the benefits of having all your top prospects in one room at the same time.

Ali posted a discussionSelf Publishing Through print-on-demand Testimonials
I just wanted to share some things about print-on-demand publishing. I have had experience with is so I thought that I would help people.What can you do with POD?:You will be able to distribute your book on-demand (Print-on-Demand).
