Love an Indie #SIBA11 Membership Offer for Authors – Booksellers, let your writers know!

Calling All Authors!  SIBA wants to make a trade.  Place a “Find an Indie Bookstore” badge above the fold on the homepage of your website and SIBA will waive your $195 dues.  Just let us know when the badge has been placed and we will mark you current.  There are many benefits to membership in SIBA.  Let us count the ways! See all the badges here.

  1. Receive a complete contact list of all of SIBA’s member stores on demand—including contact names, email addresses, phone and mailing addresses via email.
  2. SIBA operates a speakers’ bureau for authors, the Southern Traveling Authors Registration Service (STARS) that is marketed to bookstores and their customers. As a STARS author, you can send announcements to SIBA stores you are interested to visit for events and readings. Stores and consumers can also make direct requests to you.
  3. Reduced prices for advertising & table rental at #SIBA11
  4. Be informed.  Stay in the loop.  Don’t miss the numerous SIBA opportunities to connect with each other, indie booksellers, and the industry-at-large across the south.

Bottom Line:  We are all in this together.
