TITLE(S) OF BOOK(S) YOU SUCCESSFULLY MARKETED: Tales2Inspire ~ The Jewel Collection (Emerald, Topaz, Ruby, Sapphire, Pearl, Opal, Crystal, Garnet, Jade, Moonstone 1, Moonstone 2, Agate); Tales2Inspire ~ The Diamond Collections - Series I, II, III, IV, V, VI)
MARKETING TIP ITSELF, of course!
Since each of my twelve Jewel Colletion books is named for a different gemstone, (with a little nudge from Carolyn), I came up with the idea of timing the marketing of each book to the Zodiac gemstone of that time span. Lucky you! You can now order the paper edition of any Jewel Collection book for that special person in your life for only $10 (US shipping and handling included). But you must time the order of any Jewel Collection book to match its astrological time period. Just check out my handy-dandy Zodiac chart, below, and pick out one of the titles based on the gemstone representing the birthdate of someone special in your life.
This Zodiac chart below is a way to mark the birthdates of all the special people in your life. For example, if your sister was born under the sign of Aries, you could have ordered the Ruby Collection book (Gifts of Compassion), paperback edition for $10, or a free ebook of the same title if I received your order between March 21 an April 19th.

MARKETING TIP ITSELF: By Lois W. Stern,
If you haven't yet read my article about Zelle, a popular tool for making online payments with NO additional charges, check it out here..
A BIT OF BACKGROUND:
First you need to know that each book in myTale2Inspire Jewel Collection is named for a specific Zodiac gem, and there's a specific reason for that pairing: The stories in each individual Jewel Collection book are theme based to match the symbolic meaning of that particular gemstone. For example, the Emerald is the gemstone symbolizing psychic powers. It’s named for the Tales2Inspire collection filled with Beyond Coincidence stories.
MY CREATIVE MARKETING IDEA: In marketing my books, here is one idea that has worked so well for me.
I'd like to invite all my Tales2Inspire fans to go to https://www.tales2inspire.com/gifts to downlod a free Zodiac chart, an enlarged working copy of the miniature one you see below. Then add the name of each person special in your life to the line corresponding to their specific birthdate.
Then, if looking for a unique way to let those near and dear know that they are indeed special to you, consider presenting some on your list with a gem collection book - one named for a gem listed under their Zodiac sign. (See column two on this chart for easy reference.)
What thoughtful little 'Thinking of you' gifts these Jewel Collection books make when paired to the Zodiac sign of one of your friends and/or family members. And here is a little bonus tip I learned from one of my authors: Write one sentence inside each book cover telling that person why they are special to you.
Thank you, Adrienne Drake, MD
Can you just imagine how thrilled you would be to know that someone cared enough to think of you in such a speclal way!
I often run specials, announced through my monthly newsletter, and encourage my readers to use my Jotform at: https://form.jotform.com/260094023611041 to stock up on these little gift books at bargain prices.
