My question is how you can get your book marketed without an ISBN. I have published my book on lulu.com if it concerns its name is multiplications beyond 12 to 50 %26amp; you can probably give me feedback about it's marketability. Keyword: multiply|||The only way is to market your book in person. Two people that were successful at self-publishing were James Redfield (author of "The Celestine Prophecy) and Christopher Paolini (author of "Eragon"). Both of these authors spent countless hours and money on promoting their book /in person/.
Paolini (and his parents) personally visited over 130 schools and libraries wearing a medieval costume.

Redfield and his wife drove from state to state selling his book out of his car. He gave away thousands of dollars worth of books just to get his name out there.

Bookstores can only order books with ISBN numbers and they usually don't order self-published books. If you want your book to be sold in book stores you will have to personally speak to the manager of each bookstore that you want to stock your book. Bookstores usually pass on self-published books because nobody has ever heard of the author before.
