Book Marketing Strategist Offers Book Marketing Training And Advice to Authors And Publishers

Marketing strategist Don McCauley of the Free Publicity Focus Group believes that book publishing and book marketing models must and will change, morphing into a new model that will take today's social environment as its basis. However, he also believes that, though the specific methods employed to market books will also change, the basics of successful marketing will not change.

Book marketing strategist Don McCauley offers book marketing training to authors and publishers and some sage advice to both traditionally published and self published authors: Don't fall prey to using tools and techniques that do not produce real world results - sales.

"Everyone hopes to achieve success," McCauley states, "but there is quite a bit of hype out there, and lot of advice that is not based on proven facts. Each and every book is unique. Every target market is specific in regards to age, gender, geographic region, wants, needs and preferred approach. In regards to marketing, using a 'one size fits all' marketing strategy is much the same as taking someone else's medicine - the results will likely not be good."

"So many people new to marketing are looking for that elusive 'idea that works'. They all work. However, not all of them, or perhaps none of them, will work for a specific book. Many people, in the hopes of creating success, listen to all the 'great ideas' out there and then 'try them out', one by one. This is precisely the wrong approach. Using this 'try it out' approach will cost a great deal of money. That money will be wasted on experimentation. Not only will money be wasted, but there will also be a terrible waste of time."

Mr. McCauley offers no charge ebooks, reports and video training at his website. All can be downloaded and put to use immediately by those hoping to create success by utilizing proven, common sense marketing methods, tools and strategies. But Mr. McCauley offers one final piece of advice that is especially important to those who hope to create success in today's inbound marketing environment.

"Don't use a tool or method because someone else said it should be used. Failure usually results from concentrating on a tool, rather than concentrating first on the blueprint - the strategy. For the blueprint will determine which of those working tools will be needed to accomplish one's very specific goals. The personalized, strategic marketing strategy is the key component, as it is this plan that will determine WHICH methods the individual should use, HOW they should be used, IF, WHEN and WHERE they should be used."

Don McCauley is available for media interview and can be reached using the information below. More information is available at his website.

PROFILE:

Don McCauley is a marketing strategist with over 30 years of experience. He helps individuals, small businesses, authors and professionals create low cost and no cost publicity and marketing campaigns to increase sales. The primary goal is to demonstrate how anyone can develop a massive marketing and publicity campaign for little or no money. This is accomplished by utilizing cutting edge strategic marketing and publicity resources. The goal is always to produce bottom line results. He serves as facilitator of the Free Publicity Focus Group. He is the co-founder of 'Book Marketing - The Authors Marketing Powerhouse', and serves as host for several of 'The Authors Show' radio programs.

Happiness Begins With Forgiveness: Dr. Laurie Pappas Offers Powerful Resources In The ‘The Loving Heart’


Many people feel that forgiving others is often not possible or perhaps simply not deserved. Dr. Laurie Pappas, author of ‘The Loving Heart: Navigating The Journey From Conflict To Peace,’ teaches that forgiveness is a necessary and significant step on the road to happiness. She offers Elizabeth Smart's ordeal as an extreme example of the transformational power of forgiveness

Everyone knows the story of Elizabeth Smart, who was kidnapped and raped daily for nine months by her captor, Brian David Mitchell, before being rescued. Amazingly, Smart went on to forgive her tormentor and has gone on to establish The Elizabeth Smart Foundation, dedicated to helping protect children from physical abuse.

“Elizabeth Smart”, stated Dr. Pappas, “is a role model for us all. In her ability to forgive her tormentor, Brian David Mitchell, she has freed herself from the bondage that could keep her from living her life fully and with great purpose. Perhaps through her faith, but certainly through deep inner work, she has risen from her ashes with plans to go to college, and to help protect children from physical abuse through her creation of the new Elizabeth Smart Foundation. Hopefully, we can all learn from her courage and her commitment to life, that if we hold onto anger in our hearts, we thwart the very essence of who we are, that of love, compassion, and benevolence. Through forgiveness, we liberate ourselves to live and participate fully in this valuable and meaningful life we've been given."

Dr. Pappas presents her approach in 'The Loving Heart: Navigating the Journey from Conflict to Peace'. The book is supplemented by a workbook entitled 'The Loving Heart Companion'. Dr. Pappas has included over 30 years of observation and wisdom gained from personal experiences, as well as working with students, clients, family members and colleagues. She now offers a series of teleclasses dealing with the subjects contained within her written works.

"Elizabeth Smart's choice," Dr. Pappas continued, "to forgive gives each of us great food for thought. If she can do this under such horrific circumstances, couldn't we all? Concepts such as forgiveness, surrender and the mirroring principle, help us to mend the fearful, anxious and angry states of mind that accompany us each day. These concepts help us to uproot any disturbing thoughts we may have, and replace them with calm, peaceful ones, freeing us to extend hopeful, caring thoughts into regions of the world that so critically need our nonviolent, harmonic energy.”

Dr. Pappas offers phone and in-person spiritual and metaphysical counseling, in addition to life coaching, classes, workshops, speaking engagements and teleclasses. More information on all the resources she offers is available at her website. Specific information on teleclasses is available by email. Dr. Pappas is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below, or by email at laurie@lovingheartconnection.com. 'The Loving Heart: Navigating the Journey from Conflict to Peace' and the accompanying workbook, 'The Loving Heart Companion', are available at her website, Amazon.com, Rittenhouse, Nacscorp and Expresso Book Machines.

Profile:

Dr. Laurie Pappas is an educator, spiritual counselor, speaker, writer and life coach. Dr. Pappas is a recipient of the 2005 International Peace Prize, Key of Success Award, and Woman of the Year Award, bestowed by the United Cultural Convention of the United States of America for outstanding personal achievements to the good of society as a whole. She lives and teaches using ancient psycho-spiritual principles.

Misinformation About Nuclear Power Safety Offered By US Media - Author Joseph Fray Reveals The Truth

Physicist, engineer and author Joseph Fray believes the media has been misinforming the public about nuclear power safety. In ‘An Achievable Solution Of Our Energy Problems’, Fray states that nuclear power is not just one solution – it is instead the only solution

Erroneous information is widespread regarding the meeting of national energy requirements and our energy problems. The media, in order to achieve sensationalism, has continued to present a totally invalid image of nuclear energy. Solar power and wind power cannot solve the energy problems. ‘An Achievable Solution Of Our Energy Problems’, by physicist, engineer and author Joseph Fray, examines the various proposed energy sources in a factual manner and outlines a totally viable solution - nuclear energy.

“Half the total electrical energy required by the USA,” stated Mr. Fray, “is derived from coal. Emissions from this energy source cause the premature deaths of thousands of people each year plus medical costs, along with substantial environmental damage.”

Some of the more surprising facts claimed by Mr. Fray include:

* In the entire history of nuclear power in the USA, no member of the public has ever been harmed by a nuclear energy source, including Three Mile Island.

* The radiation level outside any coal-fired power plant is far higher than for any nuclear power plant of equal power.

* The background radiation level at Grand Central Station, New York and the Capitol Building, Washington, DC is much higher than is permitted outside a nuclear power plant.

* The Chernobyl reactor was over-moderated with a positive void coefficient of reactivity, all leading to an unstable design. Such a design would not be granted permission to be constructed in the USA and most other countries. Also, this reactor had virtually no radiation containment structure, which is a requirement for all US plants.

* The coal-fired power plants produce more waste (ash) in one day than all the nuclear plant waste produced in history. The nuclear waste, while more radioactive is totally segregated from the environment. The coal ash, containing mercury, lead, arsenic and asbestos, along with uranium and thorium, is dumped into landfills and sludge ponds.

* For obvious reasons Chernobyl is not relevant to the next statistic, however if it is included, it is still found that more people suffer premature death from the coal-fired power plant gaseous emissions in one year than have died from nuclear power plant practice in history.

In Fray's opinion, irresponsible news media reporting is a problem regarding nuclear power. For example, it was recently stated that the US has twenty three nuclear power plants in the USA similar to those at Fukushima, leaving the impression that the US had those many similar risks. It was not pointed out that only one was considered to be in a potential earthquake zone and, that none were likely to be subjected to a tsunami. While Fukushima is not covered specifically in the book, it may be noted that the tsunami was the principal cause of the Fukushima problems. Such biased coverage of nuclear power is unfortunately the norm.

The book contains detailed descriptions relating to Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and the treatment of nuclear waste, and includes a description of how a nuclear reactor functions.

“Of all energy sources examined,” Fray continued, “nuclear power alone can reliably meet the demand without harm to the populace or environment. The objective of this book is to present a factual description of those aspects of nuclear energy, which have received much ignorant and unfounded criticism from anti-nuclear advocates. By this means it is hoped the public will be able to make an accurate judgment.”

Mr. Fray is available for media interview and can be reached using the information below, or by email at zeroe@pacbell.net. 'An Achievable Solution Of Our Energy Problems' is available at his website and is available at Amazon.com in both paperback and Kindle versions.

Profile:

Joseph Fray is an electrical engineer and physicist who entered the nuclear industry in 1958 as the Works Electrical Engineer at the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) Chapelcross nuclear power plant in Scotland.

Developing an interest in reactor physics the author moved to the UKAEA Industrial Power Branch and later to the General Electric (GE) Nuclear Group in San Jose, California.

The author retired in 1988 but continued as a private consultant with GE until 2001. He has over 40 years experience in the nuclear industry. He lives in California and maintains an interest in energy development.

Medical Reports Confirm Breast Cancer Case Cured Through Cellular Level Healing: Author Alice McCall's Story


Stories abound about cancer and other dreaded diseases being cured through alternative therapies. But the question that must be asked is 'Where is the proof?' Alice McCall, author of 'Wellness Wisdom' offers the medical proof in the form of verified reports from medical doctors. Her journey from breast cancer diagnosis to health using Cellular Level Healing is detailed in 'Wellness Wisdom'

The stories of cures for cancer through alternative therapies abound in our society, but most are relegated to the realm of fantasy fiction or dismissed as speculation. One story however is true: Alice McCall offers hard data, medical reports and proof that no evidence of breast cancer remains. She credits a process she terms 'Cellular Level Healing' for this astounding outcome. The story is detailed in her book, 'Wellness Wisdom'.

"The facts are simple," says McCall, "in 2007, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. The next day, I decided to embark on the path of self-healing without medical intervention, where I used my practice of cellular level healing. Today the cancer is gone. In 'Wellness Wisdom', I share all that I learned along my healing journey, offering hope and guidance to those that are afflicted with breast cancer or other diseases. ‘Wellness Wisdom’ gives the how to's of natural health and self-healing from the spiritual aspects, diet and nutrition, to holistic healthcare practices and protocols. It includes my personal revelations during the process."

* Diet tips, recipes, and cooking ideas that support the body's health, culled from a variety of healthy diets including raw foods and macrobiotic approaches.

* Alternative health practices, remedies, and protocols that are available to those on the self-healing journey.

"Working at the cellular level of the body and the subconscious to affect health issues is truly the missing link to health, wellness, and healing,” continues McCall. “Each of us are made with mind, body, emotions and spirit. They are all interconnected. To affect complete transformation of unwanted issues, all need to be addressed."

'Wellness Wisdom’ is available at Amazon, Indie Bound, and WellnessWisdomHealing.com. Alice McCall is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below, or by email at alice@healingpath.info. More information is available at her website.

Dr. Simon Casey To Appear On The Authors Show To Discuss 'Secrets To Emotional Wealth'


Emotional Mastery™ expert Dr. Simon Casey combines psychology, science and years of hands-on experience that gives people the ability to achieve emotional freedom by mastering six core emotions, leading to personal growth, career success and goal achievement

Therapist, Life coach and Emotional Mastery™ expert Dr. Simon Casey will appear on The Wellness Authors Show on June 13 and 14, 2011, to discuss his latest release, 'Secrets To Emotional Wealth'.

Books in the self help genre offer guidance in many different areas: stress management, unhealthy relationships, career success, goal achievement, developing self confidence and self worth - the list goes on and on. Many of us have gone a step further and have been involved in talk therapies of one kind or another. But often neither books or talk therapy produce the results we desperately seek. 'Secrets to Emotional Wealth' transcends the 19th century approach by mastering the language of six core feelings and their effective application to subconscious mind to achieve a happy and successful life.

'Secrets To Emotional Wealth' leads the reader to identify six core feelings. It allows one to discern the true meaning of these emotions, helping to eliminate doubt and confusion, and it guides the reader to stop using reason to resolve emotions. Hence the reader will eliminate endless mental analysis in trying to make some sense of the world and can overcome some of the 'paralysis of analysis'.

"I wrote this book," stated Dr. Casey, "because I realized that many people are suffering emotionally and yet don't know how to stop it. Personal dissatisfaction, failing relationships and repeated self destructive behaviors are the end result of never learning the art of emotional skills needed to create the kind of life they always desired. I believe that anyone can learn these skills to transform their lives from a sense of self-doubt, confusion and unhappiness to creating a path of self-fulfillment and joy."

Emotional Mastery™ is the ideal self-mastery solution for anyone who wants to benefit from:

* Personal Growth and Empowerment
* Career Success and Satisfaction
* Easy and Effective Goal Achievement
* A Purpose-Filled Life with Direction
* Long-Term Functional Relationships
* Effective Conflict Resolution Strategies
* Increased Confidence and Self-Worth
* A Higher Degree of Consciousness and Awareness
* Problem Solving without Confusion or Frustration
* Managing Emotions in Oneself and Others

"Emotional Mastery," continued Dr. Casey, "is also excellent for enhancing productivity at work and boosting job satisfaction. In fact, the workplace is an ideal environment for implementing Emotional Mastery, because work often plays a central role in sense of self-worth, confidence level, peace of mind and overall quality of life."

Dr. Casey is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below, or by email at askdremo@aol.com. He will appear on The Wellness Authors Show at www.TheWellnessAuthorsShow.com on June 13 and 14. More information is available at his website. 'Secrets To Emotional Wealth' is available at his website, Amazon.com and other online book outlets.

'Authors Speaking' serves as a community of authors, teachers, librarians, teens and tweens, book clubs and bloggers. Girl Power is an all day free event for 75 girls from disadvantaged families who are members of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Silicon Valley to be held on Sunday, June 12

Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein, internationally known positive psychologist and author of 'The Truth: I’m a Girl, I’m Smart and I Know Everything', chosen one of the top 100 books by The Best You Can Be Foundation, and creator of the website 'Authors Speaking', will talk to girls about building self-esteem.

Girl Power is an all day free event for 75 girls from disadvantaged families who are members of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Silicon Valley. All girls attending are required to be part of the Club’s book club. Beginning the first week of April, the girls will be reading the book by the keynote speaker, Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein, 'The Truth: I’m a Girl, I’m Smart and I Know Everything'. In addition, the clubs will have discussion groups after the event.

"As a positive psychologist I know how important it is to help girls grow up strong and to feel their power is real. We know that tweens and teens struggle with so many pressures, including peer pressure, bullies, drugs, self-esteem issues, absent parents, weight, body image issues, etc. I feel so privileged to have the time with these 75 girls to teach them how to recognize the power that they already have within themselves and how to recognize, refine, and cherish it so that they can live up their unique potential and not cave in to all the pressures that surround them. We will have a great time learning and doing, getting to know ourselves better and having fun with 'The Truth: I'm a Girl, I'm Smart and I Know Everything'."

Sentenced To Life: Author Kay Baker Details Ordinary People Finding Salvation Through Extraordinary Circumstances


Prison would likely be the last place one would expect to find salvation, yet many people do. Author Kay Baker's story of a woman sentenced to prison demonstrates that what could be the last stop for some, can instead be transformed into the first step into a new life

Author Kay Baker has released 'Sentenced To Life'. 'Sentenced to Life' tells the story of Kathy Williams, a successful career woman in a high profile position. Kathy falls into temptation and embezzles money. She is caught and sentenced to 11 years in prison. However, Kathy is able to overcome the challenges in her life and ultimately find peace and victory over her own desires and misguided actions through a close relationship with Jesus Christ.

"I wrote this book," stated Ms. Baker, "to bring hope to the hopeless, encouragement to the depressed, to tell people that Jesus is there for them, and to introduce the unsaved to Jesus Christ."

A portion of all book proceeds are donated to Angel Tree Prison Ministries. This organization offers services to some of the 1.7 million American children whose lives are affected by the abandonment, loneliness, and shame that comes from having a mom or dad in prison.

Proceeds from the book also help support Prison Fellowship Ministries, founded by Charles 'Chuck' Colson. Charles “Chuck” Colson was named as one of the Watergate Seven, and pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice for attempting to defame Pentagon Papers defendant Daniel Ellsberg. He converted to Christianity in 1973, and the following year served seven months of a one-to-three year sentence in the federal Maxwell Prison in Alabama as the first member of the Nixon administration to be incarcerated for Watergate-related charges.

After his release from prison, Colson founded Prison Fellowship. The ministry has promoted pen-pal relationships with inmates. Colson has worked to promote prisoner rehabilitation and reform of the prison system in the United States.

"Readers will benefit from reading this book," continued Ms. Baker, "because first, it is a good "read" and second, they will realize that no matter how difficult or impossible our circumtances are, we have a God who can deliver us from all of them."

Kay Baker is available for media interview and can be reached using the information below or by email at komets@att.net. 'Sentenced To Life' is available from her website, Amazon, Barnes and Noble and from Tate Publishing. More information is available at her site.
