Subject: Estimating Potential Book Sales



For purposes of completing book proposals, I need to know something

about how to estimate book sales (over 3-5 years) and how to convince a

publisher that one's estimates are worth the paper they are written on.

Any suggestions?



Thanks,

Bethany Dumas
