How To Get My Coaching FREE (one time)

I help authors sell books, build a business and take their messages to the world.

We do that in two ways here.. a lot of free information on the web, and high paid clients. Unless I get a crazy idea to test new software and give away the paid consulting.

I am trying out a new webinar system for my private coaching sessions. So you get this same ME, hopefully a great show, and the fun of watching me bumble through with new technology (OK.. you can get that anytime)

The only catch.. I’m just doing this ONCE.. it will NOT BE RECORDED (no evidence if I screw up) and it is on SHORT NOTICE.

Friday at Noon Eastern (9am Pacific) on July 16th (yes, that is tomorrow.. I did say SHORT NOTICE)

Grab a slot here –> Warren’s free coaching session

I’m going to share some new tests from what is working on FACEBOOK, how partners are getting 10x the publicity on the MEGA SUCCESS DAY promo for next week and other freebinarific advice. I may talk about Twitter if you twist my arm.

I will answer ANY question… show any secret site.

You can still ask your question in a comment, on Twitter or whatever.. but you won’t get the real live me with a mouse in my hand showing you exactly what YOU need to succeed unless you register here

Jim Got Me to Tell My Secrets to His Listeners

I’m getting many interview requests as author of Twitter Revolution, but still find time to help authors market their books.

Jim Kukral has become a good friend over the past few months. He’s a blogging and social media genius and wanted to know more about my Book Marketing Strategy course

So I gave him carte blanch to ask any question he wanted, provided he post it for you to see.

Be the Authority: Interview Authors on Your Own Blog or Show

I just completed an interview with TT “Mitch” Mitchell for Mitch’s Blog

Reminded me that it was time to talk to you about this easy way to gain access to authors and personalities that can add credibility to you and your book or message.

Mitch is a friend on Facebook and we’ve been talking about buidling our networks and adding value to our online promotions. When he asked if I would do an interview, I said yes. Mitch sent 5 questions in an email, I answered them back and he posted it to his blog.

The whole process took minutes.. but look at the outcome

  1. Mitch got fresh content for his readers
  2. I got a chance to be introduced to people I didn’t know
  3. We both got links to our web sites to attract future readers

You probably already have a blog, so all you need to do is ASK. Connect with the authors and people that you’d like to interview using online social media sites or a blog search for keywords or names you’d like to be associated with.

A email interview for your blog is just one way to create this informative content. You can also record live audio and video, like my Twitter radio show on BlogTalkRadio

Thousands of authors and entrepreneurs have shows now. Guess what? They are all TALK RADIO and need guests. You can invite them to be guests on you show, or just search for shows of like minded people and log into their chat rooms during the show where you can talk to people that are interested in your subject.

When you get there, don’t just post a link to your stuff. That’s like handing our flyers at someone else’s party. Instead, be a resource, answer questions and get to know the host. After the show, send a note and tell them you are available for an interview. (you wlil know if they are interested becuase you just listened to a show)

Can’t be there live? No problem BlogTalkRadio automatically records show for poscast (mp3) listening later. These are great links to refer to in your own blog. Just as I did in this post.

Do you have a show? Tell us about your experience in a comment. If you talk to authors, entrepreneurs or people who want more success in life, let me know. I have clients who are available for intervews, and I might be a good guest for you too.

When we connect, you know that I”ll be posting a link here, on Twitter and other social media.

How An Author Creates Releationships With Thousands of Readers

I admit I’m a twitter.com addict.

I post 20 tweets (twitter messages) for every blog post here. Most are very short, and twitter doesn’t allow any over 140 characters (not 140 words.. just 140 characters). I’m also using several other quick posting social media tools and explore new ones everyday.

But WHY is TWITTER so IMPORTANT?

First off, I went to Twitter for the same reasons I started blogging, write article, send email and have a web site. Because I know my readers are there. I always want to be where my readers might be looking for me.

But there is an important difference with Twitter.com. Once you get the hang of it, you find that there are lots of “spare moments” where you can check in with friends and let them know you care. After a while, I discovered that that I like having tons of friends, and now have a way to create and maintain relationships without a overbearing grip on my regular schedule.

If I think of sharing, I can do it in seconds.

Are We Connected Online?

I was at a conference today. I met up with dozens of authors, some old friends and a some new.

I asked each one “Are We Connected Online?”

Even with thousands of direct connections, and a network of millions, I still find people I know that haven’t connected online… so I’m sharing this short introduction to social networking. This is the best way for every author with any sized budget to market themselves, attract new readers and partners, sell book and creat a best seller online.
