RE-TWEET IT!
Tweet
I contacted 124 friends about helping spread word about the Heart Kids Tweetathon (and the launch of my new book, “47 HEARTS – How To Live Your Dreams, With Passion, Purpose & Persistence“) on February 14th.
40 have agreed.
Collectively, they have a reach of over 3.5 MILLION people through their network!
But I’m not stopping with this. Because it concerns the life and health of kids born with congenital heart defects. And there is much more to be done to spread awareness about this deadly killer that claims thousands of little lives every year.
So, this is an open invitation.
An invitation to you, and to everyone who cares and wants to make a difference in the life of a child born with a congenital heart defect.
February 14th, 2010, “A Day for Hearts”, is YOUR day to show how much you care!
On that day, I’m doing 2 things to benefit my non-profit work with heart kids:
#1 – A book launch for “47 Hearts“, a print book with 100% of profits going to charity
#2 – A 24-hour day-and-night “Heart Kids Tweetathon/Blogathon” to raise funds through donations
And I’m seeking your support with this. When you reply to let me know you’re interested, I’ll send you more information (and a review copy of the new book, too).
Here’s a brief outline of the promotion plan.
Phase 1 is underway. The first goal was to get 30 people on the team, each of whom will find 30 people to read and review the book BEFORE launch day (on blogs, forums or ezines). I’m happy to say this is going well, though there’s always room for a few more reviewers.
If you’d like to help find these reviewers, please invite anyone whom you think will fit the bill to visit:
http://47hearts.com/reviewit.htm
I’ll send them a digital review copy at least 2 weeks before launch, so they have enough time to read it and share their thoughts.
Some ideas on how to let folks know are here.
And so is some email copy you can use, if you like.
Phase 2 will begin in the first week of February, and that’s when I’m counting on your help in spreading word about the book launch and the Heart Kids Tweetathon / Blogathon which happen on Feb.14th.
What you can do now – and later?
Now: Invite reviewers to pick up digital copies of the book – if they are willing to write/record a review before launch date.
Later: Let your network know about the Feb.14th event, and invite people to support it by purchasing a copy of the book from Amazon.com or making a donation.
If you’d like to help out with this, please contact me to say “Yes, I’m IN!”
Anything else you want or need to clarify, please ask. You can email me, or use the helpdesk.
Ideas, suggestions and ways to increase reach of this promotion are most welcome – and deeply appreciated.
As is your ongoing support.
Thank you from my heart!
