Need a book recommendation for writing better - I'm always looking for ways to improve my writing skills, so I was just wondering if anyone could recommend a good copywriting or copyediting book? I was actually thinking of reading "The Copywriter's Handbook : A Step-by-Step Guide to Writing Copy That Sells" by Robert W Bly [u:w3cg00nn]OR[/u:w3cg00nn] "The Copyeditor's Handbook: A Guide for Book Publishing and Corporate Communications" by Amy Einsohn. Would anyone know if these books are any good? Thanks
Re: What are your May Goals? - Thanks Evan! I just changed one of my business goals from setting up a video site on Traffic-Geyser to: "Set up a newsletter email series (let's say 10 messages) on Get Response..." I reviewed Traffic Geyser in the latest episode of "David's Den" on my blog (see sig file), included an excellent video review of Traffic Geyser by John Detlif and decided against taking that particular project any further. Still lots to get done!

Re: Niche Marketing for success - Hi GT - This year I am focusing on health related information and products. I've been a student of internet marketing for several years now and I have applied quite a few strategies to my own websites, all related to rug making and training. In doing this I have seen very good results. I've decided that it's time to devote more energy to other pursuits. So this year it's health related, specifically alternative treatment strategies for cancer, diabetes, heart disease etc... We're teaming up with an expert in the field as we produce info products on these diseases. My challenge: I need to understand the structure of how this is going to come together. This is the plan so far: [i:3fmss38r]- ebooks or reports? average 100-200pgs - Avg cost 15.00-25.00 for books or 7.00 for reports? - Goal is to produce 10 ebooks or reports in 2009 - Sell eBooks through click bank accts - Article Marketing - 10 articles per book / report... Maybe more? - Affiliate program participation selling other products? - Physical products - there are about 30 - Life Plan - continuity program in place - Cross selling strategy in place - Social marketing strategy - Blog - Am I missing something here? [/i:3fmss38r] As each ebook is produced it will have a 4pg minisite. Each site gathers subscriber emails. Question - Is there an easy way to funnel all subscribers from all mini-sites into one main database for larger broadcast emails? ..
