HOW TO PURCHASE EXPANSIVE IMPACT: AN INVITATION TO LEAD IN EVERYDAY MOMENTS
Several people have reached out over the course of the last few weeks to ask, “What’s the best way to purchase Expansive Impact, and is one way better than others for the author?”
First: thank you for this thoughtful, kind, and generous question.
The short answer: any way you purchase the book is wonderful.
You can find more information on Expansive Impact: An Invitation to Lead in Everyday Moments on this page of the website, and if you’d like to purchase a copy you can do so through any of these sites:
Your Favorite Local Bookstore (if you call or email, they can usually order it and have it to you within a week or so)
The longer answer: it’s complicated. In short, Amazon cuts its prices and therefore pays authors less; however, purchases through Amazon—and especially reviews—are extremely helpful to the book as it makes its way into the world.
Authors may make a slightly higher percentage on books that are sold directly through the publisher’s website; however, these sales don’t “count” toward the numbers of the overall sales of the books.
And, of course, it is wonderful and ideal to support independent bookstores whenever possible; however, many (most) will not keep books in stock if it is not a book or author that they are already familiar with.
So, the conclusion? Please feel free to purchase Expansive Impact in whatever way feels best to you. Thank you so much for your support.
