Lowest air fare, IRS mileage, per diem fees apply;
two-star motel or better (Housing in private home
without animals in the house)
Fly out 24 hrs or more in advance of event (to
minimize the risk of cancellation by airlines)
Fees for a book
display must be comp-ed or will be added to
expenses. The books for sale include the speaker’s
and those by other authors.
Fee Reduction Ideas
Fees may be reduced by the following:
- Setting up a book
reading/signing that generates satisfactory income.
At an additional site, such as a commercial
bookstore. The same applies to a large sale of the
author’s book titles at a meeting (un-discounted).
- Combination of meetings in the
same region of the country, such as a circuit tour
of a state or area
- Lucky location factor—If the
speaker really wants to visit a particular area.
- Tea cup auction or similar
fund-raising event to cover cost of event; LJC will
contribute books and other items to this event.
