• Win a Copy: 10 Steps to Powerful Online Self Promotion for Creatives

    Today I’ve got something that should be pretty useful to all of you. I know it is to me :) Alex Mathers, of the Red Lemon Club, recently launched a new E-Book called "10 Steps to Powerful Online Self Promotion for Creatives." As they put it, it is "An in depth guide to effective marketing, winning regular clients, and making sales using the internet."

    The book is well-written, clear, and informative. And like I said, very useful info for us freelance/small business creatives. It has also got a bunch of great reviews, and Alex is even offering a 12 Month No-Questions-Asked warranty if you are not satisfied with the results of this book put to work after 12 months. Pretty cool!

    Alex was nice enough to offer a FREE copy to one of my awesome readers. The contest is comment to enter as always, and will be open until this Thursday at midnight. (3.18.2010) Get to commenting!

     

    I’d also like to share with yall some of the books great reviews:

    "Alex Mathers has mastered the methods for effective self promotion in the creative world."
    - Scott Belsky, Founder of Behance, The 99%

    "Mathers’ book is all you’ll ever need to become an expert yourself. I’ve never encountered a more valuable or thorough guide to promotion."
    - Jerelle Kraus, Former New York Times Art Director

    "Most marketing books say the same thing as everyone else, so it was a happy surprise to find out that the book did not have the usual marketing tips. I literally couldn’t put the book down!"
    - Amber Weinberg, Established Blogger and Web Developer

    "…This will prove an invaluable guide to a novice in the game and shed new light for the rest of us. An essential read."
    - Radim Malinic, Art Director and Designer for MTV and Marie Claire

    "’10 Steps’ boils down self promotion into a simple and pragmatic process, giving creatives the needed knowledge and resources to be able to effectively market themselves online in a fun, engaging, and wholesome way."
    - Jacob Gube, Founder and Editor of Six Revisions, Co-Founder of Design Instruct

     

    So those of you that do not win, be sure to check out the Book. It’s only $39 USD, which is a great value for all the information that it offers. And like I said, Alex is offering a 12 Month Guarantee.

      I could really use this as this is the part of the business I struggle with the most – where exactly do you draw the line between promotion and ringing your own bell.

    39. March 16th

      Had a sneak look on some of the pages on Red Lemon Club. It’s gonna be a real thing for creatives if the rest of the book is at least like those pages. Pity it ain’t hard copy. would love to have one. Though wouldn’t mind an electronic too:)

      My wife is a musician and I’m a software developer and web designer. This book would be a real help to us both.

    51. March 17th

      I have read a few reviews of this e-book and I was going to purchase it. But I’ll wait until the contest is over. Us solopreneurs can use any ideas/tips that come along, and that actually work. It always takes hard work, we know that part, but focusing the effort in the right places is where many need direction.
