Jake ParkerHOST
You get a book deal, someone gets a book deal, and it's $20,000 advance for a book, which that I think kind of implies that they're hoping to sell 20,000 copies of that book or 10,000 copies of that book possibly.
Jake ParkerHOST
How many- They're gonna do all of their publishing stuff to make sure it's distributed to bookstores, to the Barnes & Nobles, to the indie books, to the Amazon, all that stuff.
Jake ParkerHOST
When you're doing a school visit, let's say 100 kids buy the book, like I'm just trying to figure out at the end of the day, does that, does that really move the needle? I think a, 100 kids with your book is amazing, but like do you need to do 50 school vits- visits in a year? Is it sufficient to do 10? Like what, you know, what, what, what are your thoughts on that?
Doogie HornerGUEST
It's a good question, and I think it's probably the same question every company asks the time they do... w- when they do any marketing or any publicity, right? You're paying for an ad.
Kristen CarderHOST

Phil ClaytonGUEST
And this would have been around like mid to late 70s that I was doing all this, all this.
Adam ParrishHOST
When I learned I went to Barnes and Noble and they had two books by Charles Gorin and one was like this half an inch thick and one was three inches thick.
Adam ParrishHOST
So I chose the half inch deck, which it turned out was from the 50s and was like four card majors.
Adam ParrishHOST
And just it was like travesty that they had this book on the shelf.
Shep HykenHOST
Well, congratulations on a great career.
Shep HykenHOST
So this book, Bricks and Clicks, you can get it everywhere books are sold, especially Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and of course, bricksandclicks.com. And this is your story about how you took a very traditional business and and modernize it.
Shep HykenHOST
And I'm going to go beyond.
Shep HykenHOST
You didn't just do it with technology.

Caitlin MullenGUEST
I think having been a bookseller too, it was always like exciting to have an author like pop in and sign stock if we had books in stock.
Caitlin MullenGUEST
So yeah, I love doing that, especially like with my local bookstores and, you know, my local Barnes and Noble and, you know, like regions.
Caitlin MullenGUEST
It's so fun.

Graham CochraneGUEST
We would go... to Barnes and Noble and pull a book off a shelf and read it and put it back because we couldn't afford to buy it.
Graham CochraneGUEST
And we would split a dessert at the cafe.
Graham CochraneGUEST
We would just do something together, make some memories.
