Three Ways To Get FREE Advertising This Holiday Season!

I'm so happy to announce that Cinna-Minnies and Friends is in the process of creating their second annual "Holiday 2007 Specials E-Book" featuring holiday ideas, family traditions, recipes, and holiday discounts from many of our vendor friends.The theme for this year is three-fold and centers around traditions.

In exchange for FREE ad space within the eBook we are looking for one of the following: 1) "How You Decorate For The Holiday Season", 2) "A Family & Holiday Tradition of Yours", or 3) "A Tried and True Family Holiday Recipe." So if you're looking for FREE advertising this holiday season and are willing to offer a "holiday special" to readers of the eBook all you have to do is contribute one of the three spotlighted "holiday tradition ideas."

The holiday season is filled with so many holiday traditions. We thought it would be fun to spotlight three "Holiday Tradition Ideas" and they are as follows: "Decorating Ideas", "Family & Holiday Traditions", and "Tried and True Recipes".

Our E-Book is distributed based upon the Viral Marketing Theory which involves the sharing and promoting of the E-Book. So, If you would like to participate as a vendor shown below is what you need to do once the E-Book is published:

1 - Put the E-Book .PDF download link and our E-Book graphic on the home page of your website and/or blog.

2 - Send a personal email to members of your mailing list, to members of any groups you belong to, to your blog subscribers via a blog post, and everyone you can think of inviting them to download their own copy of the E-Book on your website or blog. Sample E-mails will be provided, if need be.

When each of us sends an invite to the aforementioned the impact for sales can be tremendous. For example, half of my holiday sales last year were a direct result of the ad I placed in our first E-Book. I have a mailing list of close to 1800 which grows each day by 5 to 10 new members per day.

3 - Within your email invitation you will need to include the following text except you would replace your website name and URL where "Cinna-Minnies website http://www.cinna-minnies.com/
is in the example below:

Pick Up Your FREE Cinna-Minnies and Friends 2007 Holidays Special E-Book
at our Cinna-Minnies website at http://www.cinna-minnies.com/


Whatever else you wish to include in your email invitation is up to you.

As we don't not want to overwhelm the E-Book with vendor specials we are limiting our ads to 20 vendors. To date we have received 5 "Holiday Tradition Ideas." We will be accepting 15 more.

If you are willing to offer a "special holiday discount" to readers of the E-Book and contribute either "How You Decorate For The Holiday Season", "A Family & Holiday Tradition of Yours", or "A Tried and True Family Holiday Recipe" then we would love to include you.

AD DEADLINE DATE - October 28, 2007 as we need to have the E-Book ready to send no later than the end of October.
