How to secure bulk orders for your book.


From time to time you might be lucky enough to secure a bulk order for your book.
A bulk order is when a company or person decides they would like to purchase 50 or 100 or 1000 copies of your book for their company.

Here are 3 tips to help you secure those bulk orders:


Have a bulk order section on your website

It helps if you have a dedicated bulk order section on your website.  You never know just who might be surfing your site.  Always helps to be prepared.

Ask the question

Sometimes you have to take a risk and ask that question.  Approach a person or company and ask if they would like a bulk order of your book.  They might just say yes.

Negotiate when you give talks

From time to time you might be asked to give talks at companies.  Tell them about your book and ask them if they would like to purchase your book in bulk.  Sometimes you can even negotiate your speaker fee in return for a bulk purchase.

These tips might just help you secure a bulk purchase order for your book.
It worked for me and I'm sure it can work for you.
