Hopefully you're here because you got my email announcing the exciting changes! These will start rolling out next week and largely be in full effect 11/1/09.
This blog is dedicated to authors interested in our 1st Online Marketing Training! This will be a training for all levels of the technologically inclined, showing how to effectively use online tools to market your book. The training will be held online at www.blogtv.com from 12:00-1:00, starting Wednesday October 28, 2009 and the 4 Wednesdays following. The time was chosen because evening really doesn't work for anyone and those who work can watch on a lunch break if they choose. Everyone who watches live can interact with me live, while those who tune in later can re-watch what happened without interacting.
If you're not familiar with blogTV yet, I think you will fall in love with it... and be shocked that it is FREE!
So, if you wish to join the first online training (meaning you fit the single qualification that you have a CFI book released/releasing before March 2010), please:
-Go to www.blogtv.com and create an account. Note: create a username that is the same as all your usernames on Facebook, Twitter and other networking sites. Make it easy for fans to find you on ANY site by using the same username on every site so they know when they've found the REAL you. For example, my username is SheralynPratt. Find me before you sign off.
- Return to this blog and post your username and your real name, so I know who I'm looking for in the chat room when I broadcast.
That's it. It's that simple.
Have questions? PLEASE leave them as a comment on this post. If you have the question, chances are other people do to and it would be best to have answers easily viewable to all.
Look forward to working with you!

Sheralyn - if we miss a session, can we find it and play it later?
Yes, you can watch it later as well, Anne!

ReplyDelete(Sorry, Sheralyn, couldn't resist - and I'm supposed to be packing boxes!!!!!!! Will now leave this for more serious stuff)
I need a webcam to broadcast (as would you, if you wanted to use blogTV to talk to fans), but I don't know that anyone needs a webcam to join in. I believe viewers simply need to be able to type. I should do a test run to be sure, but don't think you're out if you don't have a webcam!
ReplyDeleteMy username is RachaelReneeAnderson and here's hoping my kids will let me tune in. :)

ReplyDeleteI'm in the Eastern time zone and cannot participate at those times. Any chance of this training being recorded and subsequently made available in a format that can be accessed on the web?
ReplyDeleteOK -- saw that I can watch later. Oops! User name is nehringk, real name is Karl Nehring. Sounds interesting!

ReplyDeleteI work during the cast, so I'll catch it later.
Count me in.

I have a question. In the email you said it would run 4 weeks, but in this post you said it would run Oct 28 and 4 weeks after that, which puts it on the day before Thanksgiving. So, is it actually running 5 weeks?

@ Cindy,
ReplyDeleteIt will be 4 weeks. I mis-typed. I purposefully arranged it to avoid the holiday week. :)

ReplyDeleteOkay--I think you lit a fire under my butt! I finally joined Twitter, after mocking my husband for several months. Now I need something new to mock him with...

Now to figure out "twitter" :)
FWIW, I just signed on twitter (with all the usual usernames already gone) under the name of:
