Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, and the servant of all” (Mark 9:35).
Scripture says that we must become servants of all. Service and becoming the servant of all is important in all fields of life; however, it plays an especially important role book publishing. For example, when you get a book signing, the bookstore at which you’re signing is doing you a favor. That means that you should make it your goal to serve them in return.
Service is what sets people apart from the rest of the crowd. When you go to Home Depot and are graciously helped from start to finish, would you not want to go back there again?
When a bookstore hosts a book signing and the author helps with set up or tear down, and works beforehand to draw a crowd on their own accord, the bookstore is usually happy to have that author back again.
The common theme ringing among both anecdotes is service. Here at the WinePress Group, we team quality product with service, so you receive more than just a book or book signings; you get an experience.
