Preneur Marketing - The Blog of Entrepreneur Pete Williams

Hi Party People…

Just wanted to share with you this leaked video from inside the Immediate Edge.

If you’ve seen my ‘Inside The Immediate Edge’ video and still not sure if it’s for you… here is a video from one of the projects the boys are working on inside the edge.

We all know the internet can be used for a wide range of things, and typically those ‘things’ tend to fall into the ‘oh-so-wrong’ bucket… but occasionally you find something happening online that warms the heart and brings the ‘goodness’ back to the web.

I was just checking my twitter feed and came across one of the most amazing things I’ve seen online for awhile.

See a friend of mine’s daughter, Natasha, is doing this years MS Read-A-Thon.. and Natasha has decided to create a blog “and upload her reading efforts to youtube with the hope that she can, number one raise money for a much needed cause (MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS) and number two inspire others to become addicted to reading!”

This is such a cool thing on so many levels - Obviously the whole MS Read-A-Thon is a great cause, but by doing it online via a blog this 7 year-old gets to touch a whole lot more people with her journey… plus learn a lot about ‘marketing on the internet’

You can check out her really cool blog here: http://readwithtash.com

On a serious note, my mum suffers from MS, so I personally know how much support the MS Foundation needs, and I really encourage each and everyone of us to dig deep and support Tash on her MS Read-A-Thon journey.

You can make a donation to Tash’s fundraising efforts right here:

Thanks,

Hey All.

Just to summarize what I said in the video; We are looking for two groups of people to join the inaugural ‘30DC STREET TEAM’ - and yes, in true ’street-team’ style there will be baseball caps and stickers for all members.

GROUP 1: PUBLICITY HOUNDS

If you (or even a distant cousin) has any relationship with the ‘real-world’ media please get in touch with me (via 30DC [at] preneurmarketing.com)

We really want to get the word out about this years challenge through radio, print and TV all across the globe. So if you have any connections at all, please make contact… as we really want to get the video of Dan in a thong on Oprah.

GROUP 2: BOOK WORMS

Yes, it’s official - We are turning the Thirty Day Challenge into a book… and it’s going to be a real book, not an ebook… One you can touch and feel and give as a Christmas gift. The Thirty Day Challenge has grown into the biggest ‘Internet Marketing’ program held online, and we now want to make it the biggest selling ‘Internet Marketing’ book of all time.

So what we are looking for initially is anyone with connections to the publishing industry - be it a ghostwriter, editor, type-setter, printer or obviously, publisher.

We already have some irons in the fire with various publishers, but no ink has touched paper - So if you are in the book publishing game at any level please shoot me an email, (via 30DC [at] preneurmarketing.com), as we’d love to have a chat.

And for everyone else in the 30DC community, we will be after your help at various stages of the process so don’t think you got off that easy…

We will need success stories, book title ideas and we might even run a cover design contest. So stay tuned.

Thanks,

Pete

p.s. Oh yeah, the 30DC Auction is going to be bigger and better this year aswell. Announcement soon.

p.p.s If anyone wants to see a video of Donald Trump and Seth Godin talking about the Thirty Day Challenge - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_D5Uu3McmMQ

I’ve just recorded a short video on the new YouTube Annotations feature…

Now, the thing I didn’t test before putting it all together is if it would work when you embed the video on a blog etc… Well the result is a big fat NO.

I tried to embed the video here for you to watch, but the annotations didn’t appear… which sucks more then Amy Wino-house.

Anyway, check out the video directly on YouTube here - http://youtube.com/watch?v=vdHgC4Ek7rI

Hi All…

As I say in the video - After a lot of begging, pleading, blackmailing… oh yeah, and name calling, Dan and Ed have allowed me to put together this short “exclusive look inside the edge”

If you have been debating whether you should join the Edge, this behind-the-scene look will hopefully show you why you must be a member.
