		<description>A persuasive blog post or sales letter argues one point and accentuates it thoroughly with analogies, metaphors, examples and references. Just one point, by trying too hard and quoting too many you’ll not only lose your own focus but the attention of your audience.

If you can’t sum up your business in one sentence, if your visitors can’t figure out the purpose of your website in 10 seconds, you’re not communicating. You’re not sticking in their head. And that doesn’t help your ideas or brand to spread.

		<description>You don&#039;t need to be a whiz internet marketer to know that you need traffic for your website to be successful. It doesn&#039;t matter what your site looks like, it doesn&#039;t matter what your sales pitch is, if people aren&#039;t coming to your site then all that stuff we spend hours anguishing over doesn&#039;t make a lick of difference!</description>

		<description>Patricia, i feel your pain!

Heck, if Borat the misfit travel guide from Kazakhstan can get book deals this book seeling thing should be easy, right?

There are lots of copywriters out there just google &quot;copywriter&quot; you&#039;ll see tons of them.

Some of them might have even posted on this blog so check the archives. I&#039;ve posted a lot so I know there are tons of archives here. 

Check out those copywriter&#039;s advice see if it seems creative that kind of thing.

If someone is willing to give good free advice imagine what the goodies they might give out when you plop some dough their way.

Anyway you could also think about doing your own sales letter. Key is the headline. 

Here&#039;s how Harry Potter might Write one for yoU.

Speaking of selling books,

Here&#039;s a report on a unique way author&#039;s are getting book deals.

		<description>Patricia:

It is so great you are telling the other side of the story.  I am not sure what you ultimate vision is for this and what your visions is, however, I have a few ideas on the marketing side.  First, if you haven&#039;t already, I would record your book in your own voice.  Then I would put on your web site an excerpt for people to listen to your story in your voice.  This would also be something you could send on a CD as part of your promotional material.  Second, I am a firm believer of mini-web sites.  This story it too important and may be lost on your main site.  I would create a site just for the book that would have a link to the audio excerpt with ordering instructions (if you haven&#039;t already done that).  I hope that helps.  Warmest regards, Lia.</description>

I haven&#039;t read your book but I believe it is a very important key to helping end abortion in America.  I am currently writing and planning marketing for my on books.  First, you need a vision and a plan to execute that vision.  Please give me a call 912-965-3577(W).</description>
