MISSION QUEST: THE FIRST STEP
ON THE ROAD TO MICROCELEBRITY
Barbara Casey's newest e-book,
"Living Your Real Life - Guided By Your Soul's Purpose," is a
do-it-yourself mission quest that brings to light the "soul
niche" that can create microcelebrity "buzz" for spiritual
teachers and inspired entrepreneurs.
St. Petersburg, Florida, April 1,
2008 -- Marketing tutor and e-book author Barbara Casey has a
unique approach for helping spiritual teachers and entrepreneurs
make a name for themselves. She asks all of her clients and
students to first embark upon what she calls a "mission quest"
to discover their soul's purpose.
In the past, this was
accomplished through private coaching sessions but, in order to
reach more people, Casey realized that she would need to offer
an easier and less expensive way for people to uncover their
soul mission.
She originally wrote the home
study course called Living Your Real Life - Guided By Your
Soul's Purpose to help spiritual teachers and business
owners find a powerful "soul niche" that would form a
recognizable theme of their business - a business focus that
would resonate with people and have the potential for creating
micro-celebrity "buzz" within their field.
But business owners were not the
only people who found the course useful. In test-marketing
Living Your Real Life, Casey discovered there were many
reasons why people yearned for a better understanding of their
soul purpose.
Often, it was simply a case of
people feeling discontented with certain aspects of their life,
most commonly work and relationships. Some people were beginning
to recognize "wake-up calls" in the form of accidents and
illnesses that they wanted to deal with. Students of the course
found that by following the step-by-step exercises, they were
able to write a "mission statement" that gave them a new
direction to follow... and once they chose to follow this path,
previous struggles started fading away.
Barbara Casey decided to offer
her home study mission quest to a wider audience than initially
intended, because it soon became evident that the
self-understanding gained through the course is helpful for
people in all walks of life.
Living Your Real Life - Guided
By Your Soul's Purpose is a 49-page e-book priced at a
modest $27 and is available at
www.livingyourreallife.com.

VIRTUAL BOOK MARKETING INCREASES
BESTSELLER POTENTIAL FOR SELF-PUBLISHED AUTHORS
A
new e-book, Make a Big Splash
Selling Your Books on Amazon, teaches
a step-by-step “virtual” marketing method self-published authors can
duplicate to put their books in front of hundreds of thousands
of potential online buyers and achieve the highly coveted status of
“bestselling author.”
St. Petersburg,
Florida, August 5, 2006 -- Self-published authors in the holistic,
self-help and inspirational fields now have the option of becoming
online bestsellers with the same methods used by big name authors.
“Whether it’s
for jumpstarting sales of a new book or reviving sales for an
earlier title, popular authors have been using online marketing
successfully for a few years now,” says Barbara Casey, author of the
new e-book ‘Make a Big
Splash Selling Your Books on Amazon.’ “I've seen
self-published authors with good books get discouraged because they
can’t get bookstore shelf space or line up enough book-signings to
reach a decent-sized audience. They end up with cartons of
books collecting dust in garages and basements.”
Casey points out
that virtual book marketing, on the other hand, makes it
possible for self-published authors to put their books in front of
thousands — even hundreds of thousands — of potential buyers at one
time. Says Casey, “The Internet has made it possible for
self-published authors to connect with book buyers around the globe,
through other people’s ‘virtual’ resources and networks. Make a
Big Splash Selling Your Books on Amazon shows authors
a step-by-step method they can use for every new book launch and a
way to create a permanent network of book marketing partners.”
The
e-book outlines 14 steps for a successful book launch on Amazon.com,
the major online bookseller. It includes checklists, timelines,
copy-and-paste email letters, web page layout, promotional text
examples, contact forms and detailed instructions for a 1-2 day
“Amazon splash” book marketing campaign — all conducted virtually
via emails and websites.
Make a
Big Splash Selling Your Books on Amazon
is the first in a series of self-promotion publicity guides for Casey and
her publishing company, New Radiance, whose previous publications
include Marketing with a Mission and the New Radiance
Metaphysical & Holistic Florida Directory.
Make a
Big Splash Selling Your Books on Amazon
sells for $24.95 and is available at
