Must Ask Pre Order Book Questions
- Which edition and format would you like (hardcover, paperback, ebook, or special edition)?
This tells you what to print, price, and reserve, so you avoid substitutions and last-minute changes. If you offer variant add-ons, you can mirror option logic used in the Custom jewelry order form to keep choices clear.
- How many copies do you want to reserve?
Knowing quantity lets you forecast the print run, set volume discounts, and arrange packaging. It prevents stockouts and reduces shipping waste.
- Do you prefer home delivery or pickup at the event/store?
This guides logistics, timelines, and fees so you show only what applies to each buyer. It also reduces address errors and missed pickups.
- What name and message should we use for signing or gift notes?
Clear personalization text avoids typos, inappropriate content, and long messages that do not fit. It helps you deliver a memorable, accurate keepsake.
- How would you like to pay, and do you authorize the charge when your order is ready?
Capturing payment preference and consent up front reduces failed payments on release day. It speeds fulfillment and sets the right expectation for timing.
