&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you dream of seeing your book on the shelves of the local bookstore? Before that can happen, you have to learn the &amp;ldquo;rules&amp;rdquo; of selling your book into the retail market. Bookstores have very limited shelf space compared to the rent they are being charged. It is a book buyer&amp;rsquo;s job to make sure that those shelves earn their keep, and your job to convince them that your book can turn a profit in their store.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This session with book marketing expert Keri-Rae Barnum covers:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:30px;"&gt;&amp;bull;&amp;nbsp; The ins and outs of the book retail world&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;bull;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;A checklist of items you need to pitch&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;bull;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;What wholesalers and companies can help with in this process&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;bull;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;How to earn your way onto the store&amp;rsquo;s shelves through the side door&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is the handout referenced in the session:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-01-81/ALC-RetailSales_5F00_Barnum-Handout.pdf"&gt;www.authorlearningcenter.com/.../ALC-RetailSales_5F00_Barnum-Handout.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
