free promotion

We’ve be posting some of our videos and video clips with book marketing tips on YouTube and other video sharing services.

Great promotion for our books, such as my new Twitter Revolution book on social media, plus interviews, tips, etc that I like to share.

Now YouTube is offering a “click to buy” feature that will allow you to talk share a book, and a link for those that want to buy.

While reading the news, I noticed this cool feature.. allow you to put your videos, or videos on a top (like “book marketing” here) right on any web site or blog.

What do you think? Take a look at these videos, then comment below.

I’ve been watching Ed Dales 30 day Challenge over the last 3 years. I’ve heard from many of the participants who tell me this got them started in finally making money online.

Frankly, I have tried to ignore it. Good as it is, I didn’t see an angle for me. Nothing against Ed, but why promote someone else’s program?

Well, things have changed over the past year. Social media and networking have revolutionized all aspect or online marketing (and life) and I’ve had many experiences where I just did good, helped others and seen results come back in unexpected ways.

Then Lynn Terry announced she was accepting the challenge and joining. That really got me thinking.

If Lynn is recommending it, it must be a great idea… and not just for newbies.

I just signed up. It’s FREE. and I’ll be sharing my thoughts about the 30 days here.

Join us, and start making money (or more money) online

Willie Crawford hosts a BlogTalkRadio Show for his Inner Circle group

We got together to talk about list building and what it takes to get a best selling book
Deb Micek and I are writing a book on Twitter.com call Twitter Handbook

We decided from the start that the book would be open source, we want to do whatever we can in public, using Twitter and social media to connect with Twitter users and those who want to know more about social media.

This week will be our 3rd Twitcast (a broadcast on Twitter). It’s actually just the two of us working in public. After a few minutes, Deb and I hardly get anything directly back and forth, there are so many more people involved.

Last time, we tried to get Twitter users to post comments to our blog, most just wanted to add their 140 characters right on Twitter. So this time we are using BlogTalkRadio where Deb and I will chat with those that want to call in, while reading and responding to Tweets.

Not the quickest way to write, but a lot of fun.

Read Deb’s blog post and join us Friday live on Twitter.

Seems I spend most of my day dreaming up ways to give stuff away.

I’d say it’s a fun job.. but I can hardly call it work.. more like “my life’s bliss”

This morning, I started a new project over at Squidoo.com. When looking for a name, I thought “hey why not call it “free-book-marketing” and just make everything free there?”

So I did

http://BestSellerAuthors.com/squidoo

If you have a resource you think I should add, let me know. I’ll be adding a lot more soon.

But first, go sign up free and grab a cool link.. there are many topics still available.

Then watch this space for tips and idea on how authors can market books on Squidoo.

I suggest every author, publisher and business get a Squidoo “lens”

Because it’s Thanksgiving Day in the US.. I was surfing for ideas on how I might share some love with authors. (“love” in this sense means “free web traffic”)

I was inspired by the following.

A Thanksgiving Gift To New Bloggers My Affiliate Journey – Affiliate Marketing Blog by Vlad

I’m planning something similar for authors that subscribe to my free ecourse at http://bookmarketingstrategy.com/ and list building partners at http://zerocostpromotions.com/

On Tuesday 11/13, our partners will be sharing a new book with millions of new readers.

Thousands of authors have learned to use cross promotion with other authors to boost sales of their own books, build a readership or new subscribers online and get connected with the movers and shakers in the publishing world.

It FREE and easy for any author to join us.

  1. Sign up for our free cross promotion website
  2. Submit digital “gifts” to show your stuff.
  3. Let your mailing list know that you read other books too
  4. Order a copy on the launch day and meeting authors that are will join you when you launch your own book. (hint: each one of them knows our system and wants to help you)

Imagine what it will feel like when you are attending a conference or media event and run into another author who says “I first bought and read your book…”

That’s how every author feels when you tell them you helped them on a book launch. (even the big name authors tell me this)

Watch for news about the Tuesday promo.. and get signed up to take part.
