• Placing articles in ezines and newsletters
• Telephone calls to prospective customers
• Emailing to prospective customers
• Personal visits to prospective customer
• Faxing to prospective customers
• Selling through online bookstores
• Selling during speaking engagements
• Broadcast media appearances

Promotion activities with a relatively long time from start to results:

• Advertising

• Direct mail campaigns
• Book clubs and catalogs
• Distribution to discount stores
• Distribution to warehouse clubs

Until next time,
