So you’re
probably wondering whatever happened to my e-mail that I sent to Barnes and
Noble requesting assistance for marketing on our collection Ten Brides for Ten Heroes.

Well, I wrote
and asked if they could give us a bit of help because we felt we had a good
product that just needed a boost so our sales would reflect the same success
that we’d enjoyed on Amazon.

And I’m
ecstatic to be able to inform you that within twenty-four hours, I received
this letter:

We’ve alerted our
merchandising team about the boxed set, which sounds wonderful, and it will be
included in a promotion in August. We will feature it in a collection that is
promoted via email to our NOOK customers.

I can’t tell
you how happy I was. They also read my blog post and wanted me to share this
with you.

We review the requests
carefully and make recommendations to merchandising, but our booksellers
determine which titles receive placement. You have a great boxed set that we
are happy to give a push.

Which means –
if you feel you have a good product as well make sure and let them know about your
book. nookpress@nook.com Tell them a bit more about it than just the title. It helps of you
provide all the information such as the link to the page on B&N, and other
information such as if it’s a new release. And if not, the number of reviews. Even
the sales ranking on some of the other venues so they can see if it’s popular
elsewhere and therefore has potential to sell better on B&N with a bit of
help.

And do take
a minute to like their Facebook page and leave a comment to say hello. This was
what they wrote to me which made me realise that they did read the page. https://www.facebook.com/NOOKPress

Now I’m off to write a post for their blog and see if I can attract their attention. I think it would be a hoot to be a guest with them. Remember it was a part of their presentation: Guest posts – pitches welcome.
Wish me luck!!!
