Thu, 5 November 2009  1. It’s the most wonderful time of the year….to sell
books! Welcome to book selling time. BUT before anyone will buy, they need to
hear about it. The fastest way to make this happen is using radio shows and
being invited in as a guest. Can anyone do it? Absolutely! Can you contact
the media without a publicist? Absolutely! Will they book you if your topic
fits their show demographics? YES! I recently interviewed Amy Foster about her
new book When Autumn Leaves. Now if this wasn’t in the media, how would I know
what it’s about and why I should pick it up? If you have boxes of books in your
basement and want to move them, call me at 250-512-1281…maybe I can help get you
on the radio sooner rather than later. 2. I was watching Dragon’s Den last night. (It’s the
Canadian Version of Shark Tank) It’s a show where entrepreneurs pitch their
company before a group of investors and hopefully get an injection of cash and
bring on some powerful business partners. I was shocked to see 2 local
guys pitching their new hockey game. Local media would have eaten this up and
given them thousands of dollars in free promotion because they were being
featured on a national TV show. How do I know this would happen? Because 2
months ago another local man pitched his company on the Dragon’s Den and he was
in 3 newspapers, local TV shows, and on my Radio show. 3. Let’s end with a laugh: MAN SUES AXE FOR LACK OF GIRLS: A man
having trouble with the ladies is suing the company that makes Axe products, for
over $40,000 because the products did not help him attract any women. The Axe
products include body sprays, shampoos, deodorants
and soaps. The man says he used the products for seven years and did not attract
a single girlfriend. The lawsuit states that he is suing the company for
"depression and psychological damage". Radio is about having fun! The media is interested...let me help you connect with them! If you have a book and are interested - let's see if there is a fit. Call 250-512-1281 Thanks! Wayne Comments[0] |
