How much does it cost to attend

But now they will come to you, and the cost to attend the Conference is $3500 for one or two people from each company. Or, attend for one day for $2000.

 

 

Or, attend ONLY the Nov 1 one-day-special-sales seminar for $395

If you decide not to attend the Conference, you can still learn how to sell to them. On November 1, there will be a one-day seminar describing how to sell to special markets. Some of the Conference buyers will join Brian Jud to give you vital information for selling to corporations, discount stores, warehouse clubs, associations, catalogs, book clubs, government agencies, museums, pharmacies and specialty stores that could particularly suited to your titles.

This seminar is included in the fee for those attending the complete National Special Sales Conference.

 

 

 

This is intended to be an “industrial strength” event where publishers who are serious about selling their books can meet with equally serious buyers who need quality products. In fact, not all titles will be accepted and books will be screened for their relevance to the buyers before being accepted. Attendees will be asked to substantiate why a particular title is relevant to the desired buyer.
