Like most authors I know, my friend Peggy

McColl dreamed of seeing her book on the

New York Times Best Seller List, the most

prestigious bestseller list in the country.

Well, on May 20, 2007, Peggy saw her dream

come true.

Her book “Your Destiny Switch” not only hit

#13 on the New York Times Best Seller List for

hardcover advice, but also #3 on Barnes & Noble

and #2 on Amazon.com, just behind Harry Potter.

In less than a week, Peggy sold more books than

95% of authors sell in their lifetimes and

surprisingly, it cost her practically nothing

to do it!

Want to discover how she did it … and how you

can use her strategies to make your own book an

almost instant bestseller?

If so, you’re invited to a free telephone seminar

this Thursday, March 5th on which you’ll hear

Steve Harrison interview Peggy and her business

partner Randy Gilbert about their proven formula

for creating bestsellers.

Regardless of where you are in the publishing process

… whether your book is still in the idea stage …

just published … or even if it’s been out for years,

this is a call you won’t want to miss.

Over the years so many clients of mine had said to me ” They didn’t ask me the right
questions…..bla bla bla” It does not matter what they ask you!  Your job is to take
control of the interview. Have five main points you will get in every interview. The
first one sets the stage- and shows why YOU are an expert. Make it about 90 seconds
and then take a break and let the host ask a question. If they don’t jump in- then
keep on going on to point #2. Each point is designed to teach and to have the
audience fall in love with you. Don’t SELL SELL AND SELL - that is he best way to
make sure the audience will NOT buy your book or product.  Make them love you and they will
buy….
What happens if they ask you a “crappy question? We’ll talk about that in the next tip-

Check out this video from my friend Steve Harrison

on the #1 secret for getting major national publicity at:

http://www.TheBigSecretToGettingPublicity.com/?10065

There’s nothing like getting some major publicity

to make sales soar for whatever you’re promoting.

In the publishing world, an appearance on a top

national TV show like Oprah, Today, Good Morning

America, The View or article in major publication

like Time, Newsweek, People or the New York Times,

can propel a book to the bestseller list almost

overnight.

But scoring publicity hits in major media outlets

like those isn’t easy.

There is however one big secret, which if you know

and use it, dramatically increases your chances of

getting coverage in the biggest magazines,

newspapers and radio/TV shows across the country.

No, the secret isn’t about writing the world’s

greatest press release or press kit.

No, the secret also isn’t about having a great

publicity idea or hook (though that’s important too).

Nor is the secret about hiring a high-priced

PR firm (though every top publicist knows and

practices the secret).

In fact, the chances are good nobody has ever told

you about the secret — but once you understand and

put it to work, you’ll find it much easier to get

big-time media coverage.
