Why Pre-Orders Matter
Here's why you should pre-order bad-ass, regionally crafted books instead of waiting until they officially hit the market:
🌵 When community members (that's you) pre-order a book from an independent bookstore, booksellers are better able to gauge market interest and order accordingly. In turn, this helps small publishers (that's us) determine how many books to print before we launch (as opposed to finding out afterwards and potentially running out of copies at the launch event , or within a few weeks of printing ... cough cough). 🌵 Pre-ordering books also helps authors by increasing their odds of making it onto bestseller lists, potentially opening doors for future book contracts, and increasing their rankings on Goodreads and other influential literary sites. All of these are important components for an author's long-term market success.
🌵 Lastly, when community members pre-order books directly from publishers, we're able to ensure we have enough capital to cover printing costs (one of the biggest expenses of a book's production costs), and focus on other aspects of publishing (like setting up cool events and readings for you, dear readers).
