Yes, ...Congratulations on your first book Chun See! Yes, you’re right about the need to market and promote your book. This will be a costly exercise. You could advertise in the media, do a mail out to heads of business organisations, councils, corporations etc (electronically or hard copy), conduct seminars for prominent stakeholders, hire agents locally and overseas, encourage your friend and colleagues to promote your book (a chain communication concept) and lots more. Victor’s suggestion of giving complimentary copies has merits notwithstanding the costs involved. I’d restrict this to stakeholders of large organisations who can play a positive influence on the outcome towards your target audience. Good luck, and I’m sure all readers of GMY wish you every success!Edwardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16760936.post-80244203343404937052010-02-02T10:00:00.574+08:002010-02-02T10:00:00.574+08:00Or even as an iPhone or iPod App. That way, you ca...Or even as an iPhone or iPod App. That way, you can sell it in Singapore through ITunes App Store.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16760936.post-36869835041065066392010-02-02T09:58:14.623+08:002010-02-02T09:58:14.623+08:00Why not market and sell your book as an eBook thro...Why not market and sell your book as an eBook through Amazon and Apple or through your site.

From the look of it, the government means real business this time round. So chun see and his buddies like peh and chia should charge their 'batteries' ready for action, and I hope chun see will still have time to write his books (not a pipe dream).Zenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07489706873295639555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16760936.post-74388817269718522632010-02-01T13:22:48.578+08:002010-02-01T13:22:48.578+08:00Congratulations C See!

What matters is as you've said how to market it.<br />That will depend on "who" needs these training concepts, skills and strategies. I can think of one big "who"...the schools, polys, and universities.<br />All our education institutions constantly require "new" ways to improve and increase performance..in teaching, management and administration. They are always on the lookout for "new ideas" especially those that work.<br />You may try to get in touch with the Teachers Network Centre at Grange Road.<br />All the Best!Unk Dickohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07050766265321887439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16760936.post-13801438914767386262010-02-01T10:48:12.736+08:002010-02-01T10:48:12.736+08:00Zen.

This is very unproductive. In Cantonese we say, 手停口停; i.e. literally, when the hand stops, the mouth also has to stop; meaning you can only earn income when you are actually working. Investing your time and effort in writing a book on the other hand is more like building a pipe; even when you stop working, the 'water' continues to flow in. <br /><br />This is true in principle, but of course that is provided there is demand for your book, and that means marketing. Hence, I do hope readers can give me some suggestions on how to market this new book of mine.<br /><br />As for Victor' suggestion to give out complimentary copies to Foyer's, I am afraid the cost is too high and also I don't think the subject matter will interest you guys.<br /><br />I may consider Derek's idea to turn Good Morning Yesterday into a book. If I can find a publisher and that day arrives, Foyers will be the first to get a complimentary copy. That's a promise.Lam Chun Seehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01762020157703342970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16760936.post-9182071124883610302010-01-31T22:24:11.310+08:002010-01-31T22:24:11.310+08:00Peh - You mean collecting water which in cantonese...Peh - You mean collecting water which in cantonese means money and this is exactly what is most needed.Zenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07489706873295639555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16760936.post-38385463874450899722010-01-31T19:44:33.634+08:002010-01-31T19:44:33.634+08:00chun see, congratlations! from blogger to book wri...chun see, congratlations! from blogger to book writer!yghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07054865524193859788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16760936.post-49268365939985711262010-01-31T14:28:28.699+08:002010-01-31T14:28:28.699+08:00Chun See,
