Very cool -- I've been sick the past 4 days and haven't been marketing at all -- it must be word of mouth! I wonder where it could be if I was pushing the distribution channel instead of laying in bed.

I dunno. Being in the top 5 while laying in bed doing nothing to promote the book sounds pretty fastlane to me . . . :smxB:

(I kid, MJ. I realize that this is prime time for you to ramp things up-- sorry you're under the weather)

Very impressive.

This has got to make you feel pretty good, MJ.

Yea, it's been consistently in the top 50 for SB&Entrepreneurship and 30,000 of all books which is pretty good considering I haven't really yet begun to spend $$ on marketing, press releases, and other ideas. Just pushing content right now and my guess is, I'm getting a lot of "word of mouth" sales -- "You gotta read this book" type stuff.

However I gotta tell you what sucks -- I can't track my efforts through the sales channel ... if I get sales from a particular venue, I have no clue because Amazon doesn't tell me this info. I am marketing in the dark without conversion data -- it makes this very challenging!!

Nonetheless, I am having a lot of fun getting the message out -- I got one year to push this thing and see where it goes!

Hanging in there and pushing for the top! I've had to fight through an Amazon price increase (they're selling it at FULL MSRP)

Nonetheless, I've been slowly moving up in my average ranking ... =)

My friend from college me texted me. And we had a debate about how you do not need to go to college to be rich.

And my apologies, the increased activity has kept my very busy and not as frequent here in the forum as I like to be.

I think you got a good bump from WSJ, that is where I heard about the book and why I bought it a few weeks ago. Passive marketing..... write a new book!

It is well deserved, I have bought 2 copies myself. Can't remember when I have done that with another book.
