CASE STUDIES
‘Zahav Home’
Cooking Up a Book Launch
What’s more yummy than a successful book-and-ticket launch campaign?
Givington’s partnered with award-winning restauranteurs Michael Solomonov and Steven Cook to create a custom webpage to share with their foodie fans. All customers who pre-ordered the book got an exclusive link to a virtual event featuring the authors and the book shipped directly from Givington’s to their house, driving up Week 1 pre-sale numbers and hitting #1 for its category on Amazon.
‘Practicing the Way’
The ‘Way’ to The List
Author John Mark Comer’s team turned to Givington’s to lead a multi-pronged book launch campaign optimized for bestseller reporting.
We simultaneously drop-shipped retail sales to 17 different book tour events and helped Comer’s nonprofit typeset and print a self-published companion book that drove additional sales and recruited new donors.
Practicing the Way hit the NYT bestseller list for three weeks.
‘Hidden Potential’
From Book Club to Bestseller
Want to report a large, diverse spread of first-week book sales? Our team helped Grant’s quarterly book club purchase copies of his new release at retail and report thousands of direct-to-consumer sales during launch week.
What’s more: we sourced custom book club boxes and handled shipping to each subscriber—helping propel Hidden Potential to #1 on The New York Times bestseller list.
‘Love Yourself Well’
A Well-Done Book Launch
Does your author need an elevated book delivery experience? We helped reality TV star Lauren “Lo” Bosworth of The Hills create premium book bundles for fans of her Love Wellness brand. Every customer who purchased her book on her website got a custom box, including a copy of Love Yourself Well and samples of their best-selling products.
Our team handled everything from purchase and reporting of books to design, print, and assembly of the boxes—even fulfillment of influencer book-launch kits.
‘The Art of Home’
The 'Art' of the Bestseller
When interior design maven and Netflix star Shea McGee decided to pre-sell her new book on her website, she asked Givington’s to be her exclusive retail partner. We helped Studio McGee seamlessly launch its coffee-table lookbook with a significant pre-sale campaign that helped her land on the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Publishers Weekly bestseller lists.
“We so appreciate all your help in navigating this…you made it a breeze!” —Author’s rep
‘Feed These People’
The No-Sweat Book Tour
Does your author want to sell a book-and-ticket tour package, have all copies signed and shipped, and ensure every sale reports…and you don’t want to have to lift a finger to make it happen? Great news: that’s just what we’re made for.
Our team arranged seamless launch support for Jen Hatmaker’s six-city book tour and packaged thousands of custom-branded boxes for her book club members. To no one’s surprise, Feed These People ended up a New York Times bestseller.
‘The Forever Dog’
A Doggone Good Book Launch
Before Rodney Habib and Dr. Karen Shaw Becker’s Forever Dog hit stores, Givington’s created a landing page for fans to purchase a signed copy of the book. …Included with every order: a bag of custom dog treats.
Each proud owner received their special package by release date, and for two weeks running, the book hit The New York Times best seller list. Just another example of how anything is paw-sible when launching your book with Givington’s.
‘The Shadow War’
A Book for Every Attendee
When AT&T wanted to gift attendees at their annual conference with a book—The Shadow War by CNN’s Jim Sciutto—who did they ask? Givington’s, of course.
In addition to shipping author-signed copies to each recipient, our team also sourced custom metal bookmarks with the conference logo to include in each mailer…all timed to arrive on doorsteps following the event’s conclusion.
‘Reset’
The Letter-Perfect Book Launch
What do you do when you need thousands of books to be ordered, reported, and shipped out to every employee at a company, along with a customized letter from the CEO? Easy: you just call Givington’s.
“Our project featured many moving parts under very tight deadlines, and without fail, the Givington’s team was exceptionally professional, accommodating, and responsive throughout each step…masterfully deploy[ing] the campaign in record time. We’ll surely partner with them again for the next book!” —Author’s rep
