Teleconference for The Corporate Blogging Book on Wednesday Sept. 20th 2006
I've changed the date to allow more time to order 5 copies of my book from 800-CEO-Read.

Hey, join me Wednesday Sept. 20th from 12 noon to 2 PM Eastern on a *private* teleconference call where we'll dig into the nitty gritty of corporate and CEO blogging.

Limited to 25 10 people so everyone gets a chance to talk and ask questions.

Ticket to entry?

Order The Corporate Blogging Book on 800-CEO-ReadThe teleconference is free if you purchase five copies of my new book, The Corporate Blogging Book, on 800-CEO-Read.

Brand Autopsy's John Moore is calling it The Best Business Blogging Book. It's getting high marks from knowledgeable bloggers and others.

Remember, this is The Skeptic's Guide to Corporate Blogging. It's for the ROI, show-me-the-money, why-should-I-do-this manager who doesn't want to be bullied into adopting blogs as the next new thing.

I bet you've got a client or colleague, boss or blogging skeptic you can give a copy to. That easily adds up to four or five copies you can put to good use. Keep one for yourself, of course.

Useful Links

To participate in the teleconference, order five copies of The Corporate Bloggng Book at 800-CEO-Read (This should cost you less than US $100, including shipping.)

Another freebie: The One Piece of Advice You Can't Sell Without
I'm a sucker for cleverly-titled PDFs. RainToday is offering The One Piece of Advice You Can't Sell Without.

It's the collective wisdom of 11 experts on selling professional services, including Seth Godin (author of Small is the New Big, Jill Konrath (author of Selling to Big Companies), Michael McLaughlin (co-author of Guerrilla Marketing for Consultants) and Alan Weiss (author of Million Dollar Consulting).

Now despite having read almost all of Alan Weiss's books on the "how-to" of being an effective consultant, I've yet to make a million dollars at it. Hmmm...

Corporate Blogging radio show; London in October; write an Amazon review
Lots going on here despite having played a bit of hooky post publication of my book.

August 3rd, the official release date, was quite a day. The Corporate Blogging Book made it to #6 on Amazon's Business /Marketing & Sales bestseller list. And my older daughter, who's a pediatric resident (doctor in training), got appendicitis and had to have emergency surgery.

So here I am there I was on the rocky coast of Maine in a little cottage we've been renovating for the past year. I love(d) it!

I've got an office set up with wireless, fax, printer, etc. And I swear the DSL is faster than in my office in Washington DC. (Yes, I'll be heading home soon. Yup, I'm back in D.C.)
