What’s the best way to sell 400,000 copies of a small self help booklet.?

I have a trilogy of small self-published booklets on the subject of immortality, plus a study guide companion. They retail for $5.95 each or $20.00 per set. I currently have them in some spiritual shops. I want to sell 400,000 copies. What do you suggest I do in order to obtain my goal?

    I guess you could probably try your local Newsagency and see if they would sell it for you ! Where I am the Newsagencies do that for people. And what have you got to loose?

    You could even put an add in the paper – saying that you have these booklets and you can be contacted if you wish to buy one etc :o |

    First of all, prepare that booklet in such a way that it worth reading by 400,000 people. Then distribute few for free or sell(selling is better, cos they have sense of buying, so they take it seriously); if it is good enough, automatically 400,000 will buy. No self-help book which sold millions have been marketed or launched in a big way. Its the content that matters. If people are getting benefitted, they will promote your book. Selling the first few books is a tough thing;for which you need to promote from your heart. You genuinely need to believe that it will change others life. Hope i answered your question.

    hire an advertising firm and have them do a study on your target audience. Use the study to keep your advertising costs down. Then keep repeating your message. over and over and over again.

    Put them on Ebay and advertise them to get traffic to the site. Ebay willhelp after that.

    Thank you – you have re-kindled my desire to sell "success manuals"

    Some ideas to market it :

    1) Ebay
    2) Newspaper adverts
    3) Your own website of course
    4) Buy lists of people who are interested in "Business Opportunities" Get this from a "List Broker" or direct mail marketing agent

    The last one is the key i believe – Direct Mail

    you know what 400,000 x $5 is, so, all the very best to you in your new venture…
