Thank You Advocates

We (Chuck and Bea) watch our sales of Inevitable closely of course. Egos are involved . . . we admit! We wonder when Inevitable might be found in the bargain/discount/sales section of stores. We are aware that books, even rather popular books get their month or two of fame and then tend to flame out.

So this note to our friends, colleagues, and MCL advocates is to give you all a big thank you for promoting the Inevitable: MCL Vision. We don't, and haven't, advertised Inevitable. Advertising has all been "word of mouth," and you are the "mouths."

After being out for about 2 years, here are the sales stats for the past 30 days:

Kindle sales 125 copies
Amazon.com sales 450 books
Direct Purchases by School Districts 600 books
Total Inevitable Sales for past 30 days 1175

We are all eager to have the Inevitable Fieldbook available to our advocates . . . Jim Parry and his team are working through the publishing process and we are confident that the Fieldbook will also be a big hit.

So, thank you all for helping us to change education, one hemisphere at a time!

Careful When Ordering Inevitable on Amazon

We announced earlier that we had updated/revised Inevitable: Mass Customized Learning to include a chapter describing our Elementary School Vision. The addition of the Elementary Vision chapter expands our relevance to elementary school educators and parents significantly.

But because of some Amazon.com rules and policies, it is a bit difficult for buyers to know which book is being purchased. We asked CreateSpace, our publishers, and Amazon.com to stop giving buyers an option as the new version of Inevitable includes everything that was in the first edition . . . and all for the same price. We are afraid that buyers will not know that there is a new version and will be disappointed . . . and maybe a bit angry . . . when they learn that they have purchased an outdated version of our book.

So, when you go to Amazon.com to purchase Inevitable, make sure that you see the little note on the bottom left of the book which states "Includes New Elementary Vision." The new version has a 2012 copyright. (cjs)
