The other day I brought my mother into an appliance store to purchase a television. By the time we left with her new television, she was completely disgusted. Unlike most of us, she comes from an older generation that actually expects salespeople and store employees to think of customers as valued visitors that represent their primary source of income. I wish that I could say that the store we visited was the exception, however, it was more the rule.From the time we entered the s

As a society, we invest millions into speech pathology for our nations’ young people. Speech therapists are available in every major school corporation in our country. It is clear that the verbal skills are considered a high priority for children facing speech challenges. A great deal of time is devoted to correcting or mitigating these problems but should our commitment to speech hygiene lessen as we grow older?Meaning and understanding are the foundation of communication.

Using press releases can be a very effective marketing tool if used properly. Make sure your press release spells out the 'who, what, where, when, and why.' Direct mail a press release to all the trade journals in your field over and over again, not just once; you can use the same release.
Your book press release should not be written as you would a sales letter or flier, it should be written for the editor and tell about your book in a factual way, no opinion or glowing remarks. Send out the same press release to the editor of your local daily newspaper every week until you are called for an interview or are written up. Invest in press release submitting software and set aside time every week to send out a press release online to the press directories.
Send out at least ten press releases to the print and broadcast media in your area every month. When picked up by wire services, a press release can easily end up generating hundreds of mentions for your book through syndication.

Is your resume dead? Don’t be so quick to say, “No way!” Of the hundreds of resumes I’ve seen written by job seekers of all backgrounds and educational levels, easily 95% qualify to be labelled as dead-but-not-yet-buried. A dead resume lacks a clear structure or chronology, does not present or quantify achievements, fails to offer a “big picture” of what you would bring to the employer and is impersonal rather than expressive. Worse yet, a dead resume fails to win you the r

When writing web copy for the all-too-noisy World Wide Web, nothing is more powerful than simplicity.As a result, your web copy messages need to be clearly defined and concise.Easier said than done.Entrepreneurs, like artists, tend to complicate things when they don’t have clear vision or direction.Musicians habitually add layers upon layers of heavily processed studio tracks to compensate for weak melodies, hooks or lyrics. Meanwhile, a well-written song com

Book signings don't sell many books for publishers and are often a waste of time; better to spend it elsewhere. Make sure to promote and market your book each and every day, both online and offline. Make sure not to overlook the Internet; get yourself interviewed or profiled for sites both about writing, publishing and about the topics covered in your book. Place free ads periodically for your book's website on Craigslist in different categories to drive even more traffic to your website.
Local radio shows and television appearances are good but are often forgotten within hours of the broadcast; make sure to make or get a copy of any television broadcast for future promotions. I've seen publishers lose a lot of money paying for expensive display ads, so beware if you do this; I don't advise it in the beginning -- get your feet wet first so you know what you're doing.
Women buy more books then men; see how you can fit your book into the women's market. Find a non-exclusive distributor with a good reputation to carry your book for the book store trade, as well as for other retailers. Remember to make sure your book is listed in Books-in-Print; don't assume it's already l
