‘THE BEST OF US’ BOOK SERIES
BE A SPONSOR! –GREAT BENEFITS FOR YOU
AND SUPPORT FOR INSPIRING STORIES!

Good news happens every day around here, and I hope in your lives as well. My new book series, THE BEST OF US, will soon be launched. To refresh your memories, I plan on at least 20 THE BEST OF US books over the next 7 years.

The first THE BEST OF US will be 50 Inspiring Everyday People Who are Making the World a Better Place, and will be followed by THE BEST OF US in Business, Medicine, Teachers, Politicians, Inventors, Parents, Teens, Sports, and more. (Think Chicken Soup for The Soul, which has sold over 90 million copies of their series since its launch 10 years ago.)

I’m writing you all today because in the next 60 days the first edition of THE BEST OF US will be published, and I have a very exciting sponsor package for individuals, and companies to participate in that will finance the publishing arm, my company, Dry Creek Press.

I want to tell you how you, as an individual can sponsor for less than the cost of 30 cups of coffee at Starbucks, and not only get your name inside the book as a Supporter of THE BEST OF US, but also get free copies of every book in the series, and discounts of 50% for gift purchases for family and friends.

Before I tell you the details on individual sponsorships, I’d like to ask all of you to direct any business people you know to go to www.thebestofusbooks.com, and click on our sponsor info, to get the full details of how companies can benefit from the powerful branding of THE BEST OF US with sponsor profiles inside the books, web site banners and links, and profiles in THE BEST OF US magezettes, and other materials, including radio and TV., its all there for them to read and act upon.

Now, here’s the scoop on how you can help as an individual sponsor:

There are 4 levels of sponsorship:

Bronze: 100.00

Silver: 500.00

Gold: 1,000.00

Platinum: 2,500.00

The Gold and Platinum are mainly for Corporate Sponsors and are detailed in the sponsor package at www.thebestofusbooks.com website, and at www.drycreekpress.com website.

Here’s what you get for $100.00 sponsorship:

1. 2 autographed and personally inscribed copies of each The Best of Us books as they are published, with the first The Best of Us book publication date by May 1, 2006.
2. 2 names, any 2 names you designate, to be printed in each edition on a special supporters page.
3. 50% discount on all editions of The Best of Us in unlimited quantities at any time for gifts or personal use.
4. 5% of your sponsorship will be donated by Dry Creek Press to buy Teddy Bears for Comfort for Court Kids, a non-profit organization in Los Angeles that provides free teddy bears for kids going through the court process, via foster homes, child abuse, and other children’s legal issues. So far, Ernestine Field’s organization has been able over the past years to hand out over 500,000 free Teddy Bears, and needs help to keep doing this wonderful program.
5. The most important thing you get out of this is that your sponsorship will insure that The Best of Us can keep publishing positive inspirational stories.
