    Book promotion idea: giving away physical copies to non-profits and charities

    IDEA MARKETING 
    I'm also now working on creating a course based on the book. I'm thinking that will be easy to give away, or even live seminars to nonprofits which help with promotion.

    Book promotion idea: giving away physical copies to non-profits and charities

    IDEA MARKETING 
    I have my first book on small business branding and communication coming out on May 20, where I will offer it for free for 5 days. The book is about learning how to talk, write, and present your ideas and products so that people will want to buy them. In the book, I mention some of my...

    Foreign Asset Protection/Banking: How To Get Started?

    I'm a full time traveler who has planted in flags in several countries, including the incorporation of my business, my residency, citizenship, property ownership, and bank accounts. I'm also an American, so that limits my options a bit. But I found Georgia (the country, not the state) to be a...

    Where does the balance fall between writing conventionally and writing with a unique voice?

    PUBLISHING 
    Where does the balance fall between writing conventionally and writing with a unique voice? If we take someone like Ayn Rand for example, it's almost guaranteed you are either going to be offended by the way she puts words together or you are going to be relieved that someone could communicate...

    I need to start making more money...

    Making money online is just like making money offline - except you have to learn to use the technology and culture associated with it. But rather than focusing on specific internet gimmicks that work for other people, why not start at the root: value creation. What kind of value are you uniquely...

    Brand identity coach working on first book

    INTRO 
    Hi Bill. Yes, I will be doing the narration myself. I've done a small amount of narration for other people. I think it's a good opportunity for readers to get to know me through my voice. The purpose of the book, besides delivering really useful information, is to help me have more of a presence...

    Book Marketing: Farming and Hunting

    MARKETING 
    My intention was to state that farming was my weakness, and that I was becoming aware I was going to have to improve my weakness if I want to be successful as a self-published author. I'm not sure what else anyone else was trying to disagree with me about. I'm happy to have a discussion on the...

    Book Marketing: Farming and Hunting

    MARKETING 
    Key parts of the process are an open mind and civil discussion. I have no interest of convincing you of anything without those prerequisites. I came here admitting to my own shortcomings and was greeted with flagrant oneupmanship. As I'm new to this forum, I'm not sure if that's the general tone...

    Book Marketing: Farming and Hunting

    MARKETING 
    Most of my career has been built by working with individuals and companies creating products that needed to convince people to try something new or foreign to their previous buying habits. I think it would have more to do with the topic of the ebook, not the format of electronic books themselves.

    It appears I have inadvertently antagonized you. I'll see myself out.

    Book Marketing: Farming and Hunting

    MARKETING 
    I've found the concept of the "product that sells itself" to be largely a myth. Or as Henry Ford put it, "If I had asked people what they wanted, they'd have asked me for a faster horse." People don't always see value until you educate them about it.

    Self-Publishing, from $0 to $24,000 per Month

    PUBLISHING 
    Interesting was to quantify and measure your progress. I'm working on my first book right now, and honestly profiting from the sales hadn't entered my mind at all. I have enough independent income and I live very cheaply. For me it's almost entirely about branding myself as a real expert, and...

    Book Marketing: Farming and Hunting

    MARKETING 
    If this is true, I'm in a lot of trouble. I'm a terrific hunter. I can convince nearly anyone to give me money if I have them in front of me. Never did learn much about cultivation though.

    Progress Thread: Writing a Book Series

    PUBLISHING 
    Sounds like a worthwhile series for people looking to get into this kind of work. Is it meant to help conventional employees break away from the traditional 9-to-5?

    Seeking Beta Readers for My Book on Brand Identity

    PUBLISHING 
    I'm a first time author with my self-published book due out on Amazon on May 20. While the bulk of the content is complete at about 65,000 words, I really need some extra eyes to help me figure out what is working and what isn't, and to make sure the only thing flows the way I want it to. Would...
