Try peddling books to bookstores.
Step One: The book buyer is hardly ever in - or but they might be in if you call tomorrow between 1:15 Pm and 1:35 Pm. (except tomorrow when you call, they re home sick)
Step two: When you finally get them, they can't agree to purchase the book till they see it.
Step Three: Now they have seen it , they know they have, but they can't remember it. (Like I guess, they have no notebooks or pencils to write down their opinions of examined books.)
Step Four: So at their request, you send the book again.
Step Five: Now they have the re-sent book, but it is in a big pile of books with the other books that they have been meaning to read sometime.
Step Six: Now they go on vacation and it is back to Step Three.
When the books that they finally order sell out, you need to follow all the steps above, except this time you are chasing down the accountant.
I absolutely love Amazon. Amazon orders the books - anticipating the number they need because of previous monthly averages.
Pays me every month at the same time, so I can budget the payment into my earnings.
