On Monday afternoon, my book PREVIEW for the Bye-Bye Boring Bio 2020 Workbook achieved Amazon #1 Best-Seller Status in four categories.
#1 New Releases — Communication Skills #1 45-Minute Quick Reads for Money and Business #1 Advertising #1 New Releases – Running Meetings and Presentations #5 Running Meeting and Presentations Today, it is STILL #1 in 45-Minute Quick Reads for Money and Business. This is a highly competitive category I am told by the book experts I know. I am so happy and proud. Here’s the interesting thing about this. When I uploaded the PREVIEW to the Kindle Store quietly over the weekend, it was primarily an exercise in figuring out HOW to do that. The next day, I noticed the rankings and how the work was finding an audience on its own at the Kindle store. I got an intuitive hit that I should give it a little love via social media, a press release, and an eblast to my community. By 1:45 P.M. yesterday, that first #1 ranking showed up on the dashboard at Amazon and the others soon followed. It never occurred to me that a book PREVIEW could be a vehicle to achieve this recognition. I gave it a shot because I want to serve my audience in a timely way — even though the full manuscript won’t be available for purchase until September. So glad I did! I’ve loved receiving notes of congratulations. It is also fun to see the first few 5-star reviews show up on Amazon. If you are inspired to purchase your PREVIEW, you still can for less than $1! This link makes it easy: https://amzn.to/2VR3LvE I’d be thrilled if you would also post a favorable review to lend some valuable credibility so even more speakers, experts and authors will be inspired to add this PREVIEW to their business success library, too. The 129-page workbook debuts on September 8, 2020. I have a new suite of services coming to serve you, and I can’t wait to tell you more. In the meantime, make the PREVIEW for the Bye-Bye Boring Bio 2020 Workbook a tool you use NOW, and see how helpful it can be to package your expertise so podcast and broadcast guests can’t wait to welcome YOU to their programs. If you have not yet joined me in the Raise Your Voice – Make Your Impact Facebook Group, please join in. I’ll be doing Bio Makeovers this week for the first ten who post their media one sheets, sizzling speaker sheets, and 50-word bios. I hope you’ll be one of the lucky people to benefit!
