L-Day

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

It would be hard to be much more excited than we are right now.

It’s finally here: Launch Day.

The official release date for Go-Givers Sell More is tomorrow, Thursday the 18th. We’re already hearing about sightings in airport bookshops. The book has plunged to #346 on Amazon (lower numbers are better, #1 is best of all), and dropping.

It’s happening.

Our aim is to make the biggest splash we can.

We don’t just want to release a book — we want to have an impact on the way people do business worldwide. For us, that means hitting the New York Times bestseller list this week. And you can help. How?

By buying your copy this week.

(Ideally, today or tomorrow.)

I promised you a link that would gives you a handful of special bonuses for ordering now. (One of those bonuses, an ebook on “Living, Leading and Leaving a Legacy,” I’m just putting the finishing touches on now — it is not and will not be available anywhere else.) Here is that link:

Many thanks — from me, from Bob, from Ana (and yes, from Benny too)!

One more favor?

Please share this link with your friends — and with anyone you think might be interesting in our new book!

Packing Oxygen

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

The day is approaching; we’re strapping on our boots, checking our ropes and caribiners, refilling our oxygen tanks.

This week we are scaling the mountain of a book launch, and aiming for the peak. Bob Burg and I (we’re not sure which one of us is Hillary and which is Tenzin Norgay — or maybe we’re both just yaks) are launching Go-Givers Sell More a week from today, next Thursday, February 18 — and looking forward to planting our flag on that craggy, thin-aired summit known as the New York Times bestseller list.

As part of that effort, we’re offering everyone who purchases their copy on February 18 (from a special launch link we’ll provide) a package of goodies, including a number of special reports by Bob and an ebook by me on Leadership that I’ve put together just for this event (i.e., not available anywhere else).

Later in the week, I’ll post that link and tell you how it works.

Meanwhile, a question: Do you have circle of friends, sphere of influence, newsletter list, Facebook Friendlist, personal Twitterverse, where you might help us get out the word?

If you do, write me at jdm@johndavidmann.com, and I’ll email you the materials we’re giving our promotional partners who are helping us get up that mountain!

Think of it this way: Would you like to be part of our base camp?

P.S. If you haven’t yet seen this, you can download a sample Intro and Chapter 1 from the book here.
