4 Ingredients is one popular cookbook, according to our customers. Every couple of days we are asked if we have 4 Ingredients in stock. The question leads to a sure sale.
Once we realised its popularity with our demographic we moved 4 Ingredients to the counter from our cookbook area to try and shake out more sales. The success of this booksays something about word of mouth.

Whilst this book is a success at both my stores, information i have received is that we have been used as second tier sellers. This title was released in book shops almost 6 months ago; what makes it insulting is the 40% commission book shops received whilst we are given 25% to help clear what stock they have left.
I can hear the magazine Zsar scratching his head!

Vaughan you’re right. We get books horribly wrong but hopefully for not much longer.

Hello All
My name is Kim McCosker, I am one of the two authors behind 4 Ingredients and I just want to say a BIG thankyou for all your help and support! I’m glad our book is selling well for you and as for the lag in reaching your shelves, you are able to purchase our books from both NDD and Gary Allen (our distributor) at anytime.
Book 2 is due out later this month and we signed a contract with Gary Allen that gave them sole rights as distributor in the marketplace for 9 months. It’s not that you are second tier … Not at all, I’m sure they will sell you our second book straight away and I can tell you honestly … It’s a great book and one Rach and I will move heaven and earth to let Australians everywhere know about.
So thankyou again for all your support, it is greatly appreciated.
Best Wishes & Happy Cooking
Kim xx
