Well its been nearly a month and the site I sent a purchase query about the '1997 Peter Sun 4 Day Marketing Conference' ...have not replied, so that sites a blank. Still the videos that are available here are probably (guessing) the BEST footage of the entire conference, I mean just look how
spell bound the
audience is when Peter Nicholas does his talk!
NC and others who are interested and following along this thread... an update on my product.
My health product now has passed all the UK/EU regulatory BS.
Presently I'm only selling it via one channel online. However I have been studying Paul Hartunian's FREE publicity course. AND this is the method I was going to promote my product with...
Anyway...Went with Hartunian's exact methods, wrote a very enticing/informing 1 page release, the end of the release would send there readers to my website whereby they would get a free sample.
Paul Hartunian recommend ONLY faxing NO emailing...well there ain't no fax numbers anymore here in the UK press offices! ...So I did the next best thing, sent all 100 releases via 1st class mail, yes with a live stamp!
I have waited 2 weeks now, and here are the results (F**KING Dismal) 1 editor called me and offered a paid insertion! Another local paper (an area i don't live) wanted to know what part of the town do i live, only when they knew they may do a story!
Actually I was quite shocked with the results, for the cost and time put in i should of just bought some small classified ads!
NC have you or anyone here had any success with FREE publicity?
I still think it works, BUT...not the easy way Hartunian states, i mean in his course he mentions getting FREE publicity for mundane things like a cup-cake biz, NO way ...well NOT here in blighty!
I think the ONLY way to get success at this is with tying in your product with something that's newsworthy at the time, and the other thing is this is a complete time S.UCK, so best sub-contract out...
RE: " Making money is not hard if you stop listening to these idiot IM GURU's with their endless complexity that fatten everything up and make a simple process more difficult. This is by design, it's how they keep building "huge" courses that you'll never use to begin with. You'll just continually bog yourself down in their endless bullshit "
Every time I read your comment NC similar to the above, I laugh ...
Years ago i downloaded Jeff Walkers course, first up I know nothing about this guy, other than he is in the IM limelight ...
Anyway when i opened one of the files, I have NEVER seen SO MANY videos, mp3's, pdf's, plus other compressed files, f**k it would take weeks to go through all this stuff, and hence I NEVER bothered!
Another reason that I love all the OLD school marketers, like Halbert, Cossman, Sugarman, Schwartz, Karbo, ect., ect...concise and easy to learn
GOLD.
