From djmilesfamily at earthlink.net Wed May 8 18:30:46 2002 From: djmilesfamily at earthlink.net (Doug and Julie Miles) Date: Thu Aug 5 00:16:43 2004 Subject: Phoenix.pm: WANTED: O'REILLY IRREGULARS- Message-ID: <5.0.2.1.0.20020508162925.03400520@mail.earthlink.net> WANTED: O'REILLY IRREGULARS- (PLEASE PASS THIS ALONG TO ALL YOUR MEMBERS) We're looking for a few industrious O'Reilly customers to be our scouts in local bookstores. Tim O'Reilly came up with idea, inspired by Sherlock Holmes. Here's Tim on why we're launching this endeavor, and how he came up with the name "O'Reilly Irregulars": "Sherlock Holmes has always been an idol of mine. His 'Baker Street Irregulars' were a collection of street kids, hansom cab drivers, and other elements of the London social environment who would help out Holmes in tracking down people and facts that were invisible to Scotland Yard and the police. It was an early (albeit fictional) example of the power of a grassroots network. "It's long been a dream of mine to organize a crew of O'Reilly Irregulars to help us keep track of how our books are selling. There are too many bookstores for our official sales reps to visit them all, but it isn't beyond a network of customers who are willing to help us out." What does it take to be an O'Reilly Irregular? If you join the crew, you'll visit your local bookstore once a month, armed with a current O'Reilly inventory list that we provide. You'll look through the shelves and display tables, marking the number of each O'Reilly title you see. Once the list is complete, you'll fax it back to us. What do you get for your time and diligent counting? We'll send you two free books of your choice every time you turn in your completed inventory list. Interested? Send email to irregulars@oreilly.com by May 17, 2002. Please include: * your name * email address * shipping address We're starting with a limited group of stores, located mostly in medium to large cities. When we hear from you, we'll look through our list of stores, and if we need an Irregular in your area, we'll sign you up.
