Join my email book club. Over 300,000 people read 5-minutes a day. To see what books I'm featuring this week, go to: http://www.dearreader.com/
Dear Reader,
My goal at the book clubs is to make it fun and easy for people to find the time to read. And I need your help to get the word out. Here are some things that readers are doing right now:
1. Add a line about the book clubs in the "signature" of the emails that you send to people every day.
2. Put a note about the book clubs in your holiday cards. Be sure to include the web address when you invite your friends to give the book club a try.
3. If you have a newsletter in your church, place of employment, or any groups that you belong to, add a message about the book clubs.
If you've done something creative, email and let me know. I always love to hear from readers.
From my Email Bag:
(In response to my column about retail clerks asking for my phone number.)
"Dear Suzanne, I too, hate to give out my phone number at stores. I have to tell you though, I dislike asking for it when I'm working, even more. It is torturous to ask phone numbers.
We know the customers don't want us to ask, but we have to because the computerized register 'counts' our input of phone numbers. So, just know that we dislike it as much as you do.
Personally, I like giving out my mother-in-law's phone number when I'm asked. Since she lives halfway across the country, it skews their marketing model. Hmmm, maybe next time I'll give them my son's number in Japan!"--Mary S.
Thanks for reading with me. It's so good to read with friends.
