I have a whole list of ideas for making book signings more effective (and therefore fun) in that book. A new one that I recommend though is using a digital press to print out a small teaser-booklet. It would have excerpts from your book in it. And because it is an actual little booklet (you could even print a value price on it--say $6.99), it has a high perceived value. People keep it and may even read it!<br /><br />Best,<br />Carolyn Howard-Johnson<br />Author of the multi award-winning Frugal Book Promoter<br />www.howtodoitfrugally.comCarolyn Howard-Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15041591136206289558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11634512.post-5769053264844902372009-05-28T13:57:37.852-04:002009-05-28T13:57:37.852-04:00I hand out a lot of different things, including po...I hand out a lot of different things, including postcards & flier.

Both I've found are pretty effective and easy to distribute. Postcards are especially effective because they're a good size and can be used as bookmarks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11634512.post-74978421365128947502009-05-28T10:43:29.961-04:002009-05-28T10:43:29.961-04:00I'm pretty good at scattering my bookmarks around ...I'm pretty good at scattering my bookmarks around but you have given me some additional ideas.

I make no money from the blog, but I crave your love and attention, well worth paying for a few bookmarks.I never through bookmarks out either.

Attractive, inexpensive, and every time the person who is reading that "other" book marks the page with it, they are reminded of YOUR book.<br /><br /><A HREF="http://inspiritandtruths.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow"> The Old Silly from Free Spirit Blog</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
