BooksForMe.com Personalized Gifts for Kids

Personal Profile



Dale Pike is the Owner and Webmaster for BooksForMe.com. He has been involved in sales and marketing since 1992, and operated "online" since 1997. BooksForMe opened it's doors in July 1999 and has never looked back.

Originally starting out with the "freebie" web services, Dale learned the mechanics of working online in his spare time. He taught himself the programming language "HTML" and learned what was necessary to organize a successful Internet Marketing campaign.

BooksForMe is placed under the roof of Dale Pike Products, which Dale built after becoming involved with a new family. Now, as a "work-at-home" step-dad, he operates his own domain names and works with professional hosting services to run his business.

Dale had the idea of selling personalized children's books before he became a "family man". While searching the internet for gifts for his new step-children, he found a few websites dedicated to personalized books. He knew that he could develop a competitive business. He also knew there was plenty of room on the net, and in his local area, for another "more business-like" book dealer.

The inspiration that keeps BooksForMe thriving is the good that is achieved with the product. America's school children often read at levels below their appropriate grade. Create-A-Books are designed to instill the desire to read. Dale has seen from personal experience that reading is fun when the story is about you.

It is Dale's goal to have BooksForMe involved in every local school district in the next five years. Book fairs, fund raisers, and charitable events have proven to be the best way to introduce children (and parents) to the magic of fun reading. He is always seeking the attention of community sponsors, school PTO members, and interested parents to help kids "Get Into The Story".
