    Get Your Press Release Opened And Looked At By The Media 100% Of The Time -- Guaranteed
    If you want to get media publicity, and if you want a sure fire way to prevent your press release from being ignored or tossed in the garbage, then listen to this:A little while back I interviewed a true marketing genius who has sold over 500,000 special effects cookbooks (i.e. volcano cakes, etc) -- many of which have been sold as a result of using nothing but free publicity.And one of his "secrets" for getting so much media attention is his special way of sending out his press releases.Instead of faxing or emailing them, he puts his press releases in a big red envelope and uses a thick black magic marker for the return address.

So, your job at this point is create rapport, show how you can contribute to their bottom line, determine if the job and company are a fit for both of you and then express your enthusiasm. The question is, how?Building RapportHave you ever had it happened that you received a request for quotation or proposal that you knew you could easily fulfill with your product or service but sensed the same request was out to a number of other competitors.

    10 Questions to Ask Before Licensing Your Program
    Once you have several products or services that are selling quite well, your customer will begin to ask if you will permit others to use your product as the basis for training that they are doing. Or, if you are doing training or consulting, you may be asked if you'll train others to be a trainer using your system.This is the perfect opportunity for you to consider licensing your content or program.
