Small Business, Big Dreams. Huge.

It would be easy for me to tell you to go buy my upcoming book as holiday gifts for everyone you know. But small business is never easy.
 
Pivots, magic tricks, and creative problem solving are just as important as photography at The Heirloomist. And boy do we have a good one for you here--just in time for #SmallBusinessSaturday.
 
100 Treasures and the Stories They Tell, The Heirloomist’s first book from Chronicle Books, is due in bookstores April 30 but here is a crafty way for you to gift it NOW for the holidays:
 
1. Pre-order the book from our website, at your local bookstore, or anywhere books are sold. (It will arrive on the doorstep of the address you give them on launch day, April 30.)

2. Email or DM us a picture of your receipt, the name(s) of the book recipients, and your address.

3. We’ll mail you signed personalized bookplate stickers (as shown) for each book you buy.

4. Buy them a card, print your pre-order receipt, and tuck the personalized bookplate sticker in. And Voilà…

The result is a gift that gives twice—first when the recipient learns a star-studded treat for their coffee table is on the way. Then, when the book arrives on launch day, they’ll have a personalized sticker to remind them that you are the most thoughtful, pro-level gift-giver of all time.
 
We’re aiming for the stars with book sales, friends. Now is the time to BUY ALL THE BOOKS. Before my mom buys them all.
 
Thank you, American Express, for all you do on behalf of this and all small businesses. #shopsmall
