Bask in the Media Spotlight... Having Spent Next to Nothing!
Online PR Produces Unparalleled Public Impact for You or Your Business

Dear Marketer/Entrepreneur,

I have to smile when I hear about people promoting their new or established business with six-figure budgets.  Let them keep their brochure printers and payroll staff busy while smart marketers generate leads and build a world-wide reputation expending little more than their creative effort!

PR has always been been the guerrilla marketer's favorite tactic, and recent developments on the Internet offer shrewd online promoters greater reach than ever.  Yet at the same time, the Internet harbors deadly traps for publicity seekers who don't understand the global network's new rules.  You can get your message out to millions for less than the cost of a hundred stamps while also ruining your company's good name, if you don't know what goes and doesn't go online.

A Superb Value... Got 20+ Ideas on First Reading
"Marcia Yudkin excites you with dozens of publicity ideas, based on her experience. Then, she takes you, step by step, through the practical skills of press release writing and dealing with the media. There's loads of useful advice on giving busy reporters and editors what they need, so you can get what you want - coverage. Web-based publicity opportunities are described, and Marcia caps it off with a comprehensive section of online resources.  I've just read it for the first time and already have a list of more than 20 ideas or tips that I plan to put into action." - Douglas Wilson, author of Web Marketing in the Real World  

Learn ingenious online publicity tactics that work!

Creativity holds the key to getting stupendous results online.  You need clever angles and snappy wording to get attention from overworked, seen-it-all media people.  But that doesn't mean you have to make up strategies out of nothing.  

My special report, Powerful, Painless Online Publicity, gives you dozens of ideas for earning media mentions in today's wired world, helps you understand how reporters, editors and producers use the Internet to collect leads for news and features, and describes how to use words to maximize your appeal to media folks and minimize "Oh no!" responses that make them hit "delete."

Quick Quiz on Online Publicity:  True or False?

Publicizing online is challenging and exhilarating.

In truth, the way I do it (a way that gets great results!), online PR is more fun than direct mail, more powerful than public speaking, much easier than writing a book, and far more challenging than solving crossword puzzles.  After all, there are always an infinite number of viable publicity strategies.

If you're looking for a no-fail formula, stop reading right now, because inspirations account for the best PR.  The countless idea generators and examples in Powerful, Painless Online Publicity get your mental sparks flying, and its tips and techniques explain how to channel those brainstorms productively.

Most of the content is provocative, useful, innovative material that you can't find in published guides on Internet PR.  Order it now for $69.95.

Be Patient - Online PR Really Does Work as Marcia Says!
"I bought Powerful, Painless, Online Publicity and read it cover to cover (several times over) along with Marcia's 132 Ways to Make You or Your Business Newsworthy.  Then, I went to work writing a press release about my business.  And re-writing it.  A reporter from Entrepreneur Magazine called.  We did about a ten minute interview. The article hit the newsstands and mailboxes this week and hallelujah, the e-mail is rolling in!  Messages like,  "I finally found you ...",  "Just what we've been looking for..." and "Please rush samples...", etc., etc.

"I'm now a true believer - Marcia's information, suggestions and guidelines are right on the mark.  I go back to this book regularly because I get fresh insights each time through." - Maury O'Connell, editor and publisher, Newsletters-To-Go

Here's a sampling of what you learn in this 150-page report:

  • Why entering award competitions is worth your time, and what gives you an edge over most other entrants

  • Exactly how to format your release for online usage, and why
