Dear [bookseller],

We’re 10 years old!! Help us celebrate this spring and summer by participating in our biggest campaign ever. We’re launching a brand new PR and advertising campaign and there are many exciting activities planned, including a fantastic contest with hundreds of prizes, and new opportunities for you to get involved and promote your business.

The Anniversary Contest – Hundreds of Prizes for Buyers and Booksellers
This is not just any contest!! It’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance for a lucky booklover to indulge their passion for books with our Grand Prize: A trip for 2 around the world to visit 10 Abebooks bookstores in 10 countries! (Participating booksellers will be announced soon.) The lucky winners will travel to some of the world’s most glamorous and literary cities, including London, Berlin, Paris, and New York, and will visit with participating Abebooks booksellers while they’re there.

We’re also offering buyers the chance to win one of hundreds of "Instant Win" prizes – new books, collectible books, electronics, and much more. And Abebooks booksellers will win too -- prizes include digital cameras, scanners, office & mailing supplies, free subscriptions on your bookseller account and much more! Many thanks to our partners, including our friends at Brodart, for helping to make this happen.

How Does It Work?
Millions of bookmarks will be distributed to customers, each with its own unique code.

• All Abebooks booksellers are invited to participate! Just place your Toolbox order and we’ll send you free bookmarks, posters, and stickers to support the campaign. Include a bookmark in each domestic order shipped between May 15th and July 31st – give them out at your local library, book club, any where you know booklovers are lurking!
• Bookmark holders simply need to visit Abebooks.com to enter their contest code to see if they are an instant winner and enter to win the Grand Prize.
• The best part: if you deliver a winning bookmark, you automatically win a prize too! The more bookmarks you distribute, the better your chances of winning!

How Can You Order?
Just click on the link below and place your order for free materials. Promo packs will include contest bookmarks, posters, and stickers for the outside of your order packages. But ordering ends March 31st, so don't delay!

The contest will open online May 15.

Remember, when a customer enters a winning code that came from your bookstore, you win too!

More Ways to Promote Your Bookstore

To help tell the Abebooks story, we’ll be creating an online gallery of real-life stories from our booksellers and our buyers. Has bookselling changed your life? What did you do in your "previous life"? Did you ever help someone find a very special book, for a very special reason? Please submit your story to features@abebooks.com. You can see an example of a Bookseller story here. We will ask your permission if we would like to use your story in our offsite PR activities.

Have you added yourself to the Abebooks "Frappr Map" yet? It’s quick, and it’s free. This interactive online tool allows buyers to find you based on geographical location. Over 400 booksellers are already online - join now!

We look forward to celebrating this milestone with you!

Sincerely,

Sue, Shaun & Jordan
