Celebrate with me! Pay what you want until my birthday!

Posted on Aug 2, 2011 | 0 comments

I woke up with a crazy idea this morning.

Why? Well, for one, I’m turning 40 in a week. I’ve been excited about turning 40 for about 15 years. As crazy as it seems, it’s true. Plus, I want to share the love because I enjoy my Twitter friends so much, because they enrich my life beyond measure and because they’re kind enough to share my shy marketing tips with their Twitter friends. (I do love a good retweet!) So, I asked myself, what would happen if I let everyone purchase the book and extras (workbook and three audio bits) for whatever price they saw fit (or, in some cases, could afford)?

Well, I guess we’re going to see because that’s exactly what I’ve decided to do until I ring in 40 on August 9th (although I may extend it a bit…birthday splendor should have more time to shine). Please know that the book is about more than marketing for shy people. It’s really just a guide for an authentic, gentle, effective approach to direct marketing. Much of it should ring true to you. Some of it you may know. At these times ask yourself not “Do I know this?” but instead, “Am I doing this?”

What will it do?
Your copy of “You Want Me to What? Public Relations and Marketing for the Shy Person” will quickly teach you how to:
• Use subtle marketing strategies to outshine the competition.
• Get invited to meetings and what to do when you get there.
• Write press releases and handle the resulting interviews.
• Align your values and career through volunteer opportunities or event appearances.
• Handle mistakes or faux pas with grace and even use them to your advantage.

What else will you receive?
My gratitude (as if there was a question)
Bonus Material:
• “You Want Me to What? Public Relations and Marketing for the Shy Person” Workbook
• Mini eCourse on Shy Management including lessons on the following
1. How to successfully develop teams

2. How to motivate staff

3. How to effectively lead

Please know that book is in PDF form. Although it’s available for the Kindle at Amazon.com, I’m not sure how to share the pay-what-you-want on their site. Please don’t hesitate to email me at mikimarkovich@groundpathandfruition.com if an attachment didn’t come through, you have questions or comments or you just want to send me birthday hoorays.

Finally, thank you for your support throughout the years (and years to come). So many of my Twitter friends (and my Facebook friends….I just happen to have met them all but a couple) have truly made my life better, provided smiles and often laughs. I thank you. Best wishes today and everyday.

The not so fine print:
I’m so excited you’ve decided to celebrate with me. Just go to the website and look for the green/yellow payment box. It may say the retail price is $37, but until my birthday, you pay what want. Just type in what you think is fair into the payment box. If you decide to try the marketing bundle now and forego any payment, don’t worry. I want you to read, enjoy, learn. However, if you decide to come back before my milestone birthday to share a little monetary love, just use the “Donate” button. Thanks and happy reading!
