Bonnie Hurd Smith speaking at the Boston Public Library 

I am PASSIONATE about history as a source of information and inspiration. 

 

But I am also PURPOSEFUL about history because, used strategically, it can PROFIT you, your business, or organization in ways you can't even imagine. 

 

That's what we do at History Smiths: We find those connections for you -- connections that benefit you AND the communities you serve.

 

Check us out, be inspired, and be in touch!

Greetings!

 

As you know, I have spent many years in the history and library communities, and I am very interested in finding new revenue streams for the organizations and individuals involved.

 

When I wrote my ebook A Source of Pride (and Customers): A Historian's Guide to Doing Your Business History, it was certainly written for businesses and organizations as an easy step-by-step manual to follow. But my ulterior motive was to provide revenue streams for historical nonprofits, libraries, AND history students and researchers.

 

With that in mind, I would love it if you would take a look at this description of what's in the book. This page also provides links to some videos I taped to describe the book and the many benefits that come from "doing" a business history.

 

If you are a library or historical organization, I hope you will purchase A Source of Pride and put it to use right away! Revenue awaits you!

 

If you are a history student or researcher, no matter how much experience you have I suspect there are some helpful ideas for you in A Source of Pride. This work could easily become a regular way for you to freelance and actually make money "doing" history.

 

If you are a business person, please purchase a copy of A Source of Pride and donate it to your library (which a friend of mine did in his home town), and then purchase a second copy for your historical society or museum. AND please purchase a copy for yourself, for your team to use, because you have the right to celebrate your anniversary every five years!

 

And if you are celebrating an anniversary, I have more ideas about that for you in this ebook called Go Beyond the Party: 11 Simple Ways to Use Your Anniversary to Build Business Momentum.

 

(A note to my friends in the nonprofit sector: I apply the word "business" to both the for-profit and nonprofit sectors.)

 

Both ebooks are only $29.97 (a special price just for all of you), which is short money for dozens of tried and true revenue generating ideas -- but I really want to see them work for you!

 

Here's to more money in your coffers!

 

Your colleague,
