Tom was the most attentive speaker at our event as far as wanting to craft a message just for our audience. His message was thoughtful and we were very happy to host him, given the number of people familiar with his work through the years. My push back would be the obligation to purchase 1000 copies of his book, when we only anticipated 2000 attendees and typically see 10% of people purchase books. Because we only had 1000 copies of one title, we weren't able to invest in any other titles by Mr Rath and that was a miss for us. Many were hoping to purchase his other titles.
