This is from my July 6,
2010 newsletter.
It is an example of the link that is being sent to
radio show
hosts and producers.
The actual link differs only in the fact that the free book codes
are included. Sorry. But I did want to provide the format for any help it might
bring you.
If you’d like to know more about my new book, the link in (3) is
alive!
Thanks.
For those not receiving the free monthly
newsletter,
subscription and related information is at www.gordonburgett.com/nl.htm.

And the back-up link that takes the scare off the
radio producer or host…
[This is the link copy—here referred to
as www.gordonburgett.com/nlexample.htm—where the producer/host is sent in
both the e-mail and the postcard. It should provide the in-depth support that
makes the topic acceptable and me, desirable. If it doesn’t work, well, I
tried. Yes, there are 610 things I could have done differently, but these are
the facts, in my voice, and maybe they will help improve one or many listeners’
lives. If not, I’ll probably be writing the next newsletter when I might have
been speaking on the air!]
Who is this
GORDON BURGETT?
Will he have your listeners shouting
praise to your management about your
astute
booking acumen?
____________________________________________________
Hello, I’m him,
Gordon Burgett, not some webtext writing employee who
thinks radios disappeared with “The Shadow” or only announce corn futures and
traffic snarls!
Should we add me
to your program schedule so we can share new,
life-changing information with your listeners, like how they can write a
book and get it published free in minutes and marketed worldwide in days?
On air, I
promise to be truthful, articulate, witty, seasoned, charming, and very modest.
You need to know
more? Will any of this help?
(1) Publishing
books free? In minutes? I know that sounds like a con—particularly to a guy (me) who
previously wrote 38 published books and also published about 100 more books
through my own company. In fact, it took me a year after I heard about the
“free publishing” to stop laughing and seriously look into it. Imagine how dumb
I felt when I found out it was actually true! It’s the real thing, and it
hardly matters whether the listener wants to write a novel, poetry, a memoir, a
cookbook, or a kids’ book, it can be out in record time, look first rate, and
sell almost anywhere. I will quickly explain “the printing revolution,” give
the listeners the five easy keys so they can take part right away, and, of
course, answer any questions they or you have.
(2) Why would
they even want to write or have a book in print? Fame, maybe fortune, to
broadcast their expertise, to stand out in the crowd, to share something
special with others, to be remembered in the family for generations, to change
the world, because they fear they will die without having done anything
“unique,” to get promoted, to enhance their career, or a dozen other reasons,
some really bizarre.
(3) How to Get Your Book Published
Free in Minutes and Marketed Worldwide in Days is just out in
paperback and is available almost everywhere except in brick-and-mortar
bookstores (where it’s just arriving). I
want you to have a copy, so if you would link to a special order form at http://gordonburgett.com/nlexample.htm (and then type in NOCOPY in the discount coupon) for your
own free digital copy (it is exactly the same as the bound version). It will
download almost immediately. No charge whatsoever—a gift from me to you, whether or not I’m a fit for your show.
(4) My landing
page at www.mybookpublishedinminutes.com explains the
core of the new publishing revolution. It’s said that 40% of the adults think
they can write a book—and (my guess) probably 90% wouldn’t know what to do with
it if they did! (My book provides the answer!)
(5) I’m not
somehow linked to the process or the publishers that I mention. I will benefit
only if your listeners buy my book, and if I can give the title once and we do
it again at the end, with the #800 number or web link,
that’s it. Nor will I leave anything out so they have to buy the tome. (It’s
just a whole lot easier for them if they use my step-by-step deciphering
guide!)
(5) Have I ever been on the radio before?
At least 75 times, maybe 100, ranging from KGO thrice in San Francisco to a 6
a.m. Sunday special—live!—somewhere near Bakersfield, probably heard by six cow
milkers (and cows). But I have given 2000+ paid
spoken presentations, most of them four-hour seminars, and most of those about
publishing and article writing. So I is articulate.
(See www.gordonburgett.com/seminars.htm for the programs
scheduled in August-October.)
(6) Here’s a bio (www.gordonburgett.com/gbbio3.htm)
that shows that I’ve been a professional speaker, writer, and publisher just
about forever, or at least since “The Shadow.”
(7) I found that
many radio show hosts appreciate a list of 10 or so “starter” questions. Since I’ll be up-dating (or up-tuning) my list
as I continue to do the radio shows, please let me e-mail the most recent list
when we book.
(8) Personally,
I’d want to look at the guest’s website
just to see if he/she is a player. My two most used websites are www.gordonburgett.com
and www.ancillarypublishing.com.
(9) Surely there
is something that I’ve excluded or forgotten. Please ask. If
I’m the right guest, great. If not, please use my book and get in print
free and fast. It works. We need to hear what you have to say too—in print, for
the ages.
Best wishes,
Gordon Burgett
