Pam Proctors New Book...
Dear Friends and Family:
I’m excited to announce the publication of my new book, The College Hook: Packaging Yourself to Win the College Admissions Game, which has just been published by Center Street (Hachette Book Group, formerly Warner Books). I would appreciate it if you could spread the word by sending this e-mail to any friends who might be interested.
The College Hook (pictured below) is every student’s guide to the powerful packaging weapon known as the “Hook” – a special talent or achievement that leaps off the page of a college application and catches the eye of admissions officers. The book aims to level the playing field by putting the “secrets” of top guidance counselors into the hands of everyone. As such, I’ve tried to design the book to be very student-friendly, with such features as these:
- Student and parent questionnaires to help a student find his or her “hook”
- Hook-bolstering “bright ideas” to help students build on their hooks
- 15 case studies of real students whose hooks helped them succeed in admissions
- Samples of actual student essays, resumes, and activity lists
The book can be ordered on Amazon.com and also at major book stores. Hachette Book Group offers significant discounts for multiple orders on books that will be given away (e.g. 40% discount for 10-24 books; 52% discount for 25-99 books). The retail price is $21.99. The publisher also makes arrangements for free shipping for bulk orders and tax exemptions for schools and other nonprofits. For more information on group discounts, call Beth Brouillette at Hachette Book Group at: 1-800-222-6747. At the prompt, select option #2 (premiums and giveaways).
If you have any questions about the book, don’t hesitate to contact me at 772-231-2221. Thanks for your support!
