Online, consider releasing some content related to your book. Table of Contents, Preface, and Contributors are all great ideas that can be shared, in their entirety, that may encourage sales. For genealogy, another idea is the entire index. Giving the index away is arguably a good strategy, and for those who feel this is to much, offer a surname only (no page citation, given names, or other data) – as this lets potential buyers get an idea of what is in your book.

*Double Wire Binding: Soft type of binding where spine of book consists of double wire loops threaded through holes in book block. This method is more durable then spiral binding. See Coil/Spiral Binding
Drop Ship (marketing): Within 48 hours of receiving an order, it is forwarded to the Copyright holder, author, publisher, etc. (usually by postal system). That person maintains all book inventory and controls shipment. After they receive the order, they fill/ship it within 10 days. Due to the many individuals and businesses as well as different shipping methods Gregath does not guarantee a specific carrier or class. If the person has failed to inform Gregath as to an out of print status, a full refund is issued for the unavailable book. See Also Special Order
