There's Best and then the Rest

Q:  Is a Personalized Books business worth the investment?
A:  Absolutely yes.  While it's true that our initial investment might be slightly higher than some other personalized book companies, we are worth a lot more.  We have popular titled books like Batman, Sesame Street, X-Men, Spider-man, Looney Tunes and Star Wars that other companies can't provide and kids everywhere prefer.  Our books cost about 1/3 less than the competition's, our freight costs are less and we have no annual renewal fees.  The difference in the initial investment will vanish quickly as you sell more of the books that children want.  Remember, the best choice is rarely the lowest price.

Q:  Are Best's Books educational?
A:  All of our books are educational as they promote reading and make it fun.  Children love to see their name in print and want to continually add to their personalized book collection.  In addition, we have a line of Religious titles, African-American titles, as well as books that teach children the meaning of friendship, the benefits of working together and how to use their imaginations to become whatever they want to be.  This is a family-oriented, home-based business that allows you to provide an important tool in helping kids learn to read, while you are earning money selling books.

Q:  Best assembles their books with staples.  Is that safe?
A:  Yes, it is completely safe and very secure.  In fact, our books were submitted to an independent testing lab and have met all federal safety standards for children of all ages.  The competition offers an alternate binding method that uses a sharp metal rod and a hot glue gun to assemble books.  With that method, a child can pull the metal rod out of the book and literally have a weapon.  We use heavy-duty staples that are entirely concealed and are absolutely no threat or danger.  This method of binding is a totally safe, simple and secure way to assemble books.

Q:  Why doesn't Best publish coloring books or sticker books?
A:  Even though the president of Best Personalized has a patent to produce sticker books, our market research indicates a variety of problems with them.  The biggest problem is that they just don't sell that well when offered next to a real personalized children's book.  Sticker and coloring books tend to be used and then thrown away, unlike genuine personalized books that become treasured keepsakes.

Q:  Why doesn't Best have more titles?
A:  More titles don't translate into more sales!  It only makes you spend more money to stock more books. (i.e. how many different Santa books does one need?)  The most important factor to consider is the quality of the titles.  Best has licensed character books like Batman, Sesame Street, Star Wars and Looney Tunes in addition to our own line of copyrighted books including Adventure and Sports titles.  We provide you with a diverse selection to satisfy all of your customer's needs.
