I realise that many of you buy my books online or order them from your favourite needlework store, having never really seen what’s inside them, unless you’ve seen a friend’s copy. That’s quite a leap of faith! Today I’m going to give you a flick-through preview of all my books, so that you can see what’s inside them. You won’t see every page, because of the way pages flick, but you’ll see a good enough amount. I also point out the main features of each book. If you’ve been wondering about purchasing one of my books, this video should give you the confidence to do so.
If you’re a shop owner who has been wondering whether to stock my books, or maybe you already do, but you’d like your staff to become more acquainted with them, this video will help you and them to know the main features of the book, so that you can guide your customers to the best book for them. You’re very welcome to share this video on your social media to advertise my books to your customers, and so increase your sales.
This video is divided into chapters so that you can easily find your way to a specific part of the video, once you’ve watched it the whole way through.
