Positive Power of Principled Profit, June 2009
–> Are You the “Magic Connector” for Shel’s Next Book?
Want to get an acknowledgement in my eighth book, Guerrilla Marketing Goes Green: Winning Strategies to Improve Your Profits and Your Planet (co-authored with Jay Conrad Levinson), which will be published in 2010 by Wiley & Sons? Not to mention a few copies you can show around?
I am looking for a personal introduction to someone with enormous credentials in social entrepreneurship/green business who might like to do the Foreword for my forthcoming book.
Because this book can have an enormously positive impact on business owners and on society at large, we want it to have as large a reach as possible. I am hoping for a foreword from someone on the order of
- Al Gore
- Jimmy Carter
- Bill Gates Jr
- Wally Amos
- Muhammad Yunus (founder, Grameen Bank, Nobel Prize winner)
- Wangari Maathai (she won a Nobel for tree-planing campaign in Africa)
- Mark Zuckerberg (founder of Facebook)Biz Stone (co-founder of Twitter)
- Malcolm Gladwell
If you know any of these folks, or someone of comparable stature, I would be very grateful for an introduction. If you make the connection with someone who writes the foreword, I will not only acknowledge you in the book and on the website (with your URL, if you’d like) but also give you a few copies of the published book and also give you some very good publicity in my newsletters, etc.
Please contact me as soon as possible if you can help. http://www.frugalmarketing.com/contactform.shtml
In his first book, Warnke lays out a compelling case for succeeding, staying within your means, and being a “family first entrepreneur” who understands that quality time with kids and high ethical standards are more important than the million-dollar deal. However, he’s had a few of those deals as well. Click here to continue reading.
