A Book Signing is More than just an "Autograph" (Revised)

This Saturday, April 7th, 1:00pm is my first book signing.  It is an important event for me and for future book signings as it will help establish interest in "The Swing" with other Barnes and Noble bookstores across the country as well as other smaller and local bookstores.  This event is the official launch of my book "The Swing".


This book signing event is about much more than just getting my autograph.  This book signing is about generating excitement as well as exposure not just for this amazing exercise movement, but for the possibilities of transformation.  And no one believes in it more than I do!


This will give me a chance to talk about all aspects this training and to answe any and all questions.  If training kettlebells has changed you, or your life in any way, it's your chance to share too!  If you are an Instructor please come, it's a great opportunity for you to meet potential clients and support your business...you are in the business of teaching kettlebells, right?  And if you can't make it send your clients and students, this book may be just the thing they can share with their family and friends curious or intimidated about kettlebells.


This event will give me a chance to show it the exercise and how it's transformed me. Not just my physical body but how I look at life as a more hopeful and positive person as well as a being and living my life as healthy and fit woman in my 40's.  How it's given me a second chance, in some way helping  me to feel as if I've "righted" all the wrongs in my life!  And how it can help increase everybody chance not just to lose weight but make weightloss permanent, like it has for me!  Let's make the "exception" the "rule"!  


Let's get everybody doing air swings in front of their chairs!  Yeah, let's do it!

Be there or be square!


(Revision)  I'm learning as I go, so I'll share a little bit more information with you all... It costs bookstores to host a book signing event!  They make their money back by....guess? Book sales!  Book stores advertise the event, print promotional materials, create and use space for book signings otherwise utilized by patrons, and purchase maybe up to 10 times more copies of your book in hopes of selling them all, that day, with the authors help!  The author must be able to pull in customers, and get the customers already in the store excited, impressed, or motivated to buy the authors book when they might not have ever known about it!  It's a big deal!


It would be lovely to simply call Barnes and Noble and say, "Hey!  I wrote a book, can you host a party for me?"  


Show up!  Support a book an/or an author you like and/or believe in!  As I mentioned in the first part of this post generating excitement as well as support is the best thing you can do for any author's book signing!


Thank you all!
