Who are you - some sort of a publicity "guru"?
No I'm no guru. I get the jitters in front of large crowds and can't teach this stuff to groups of 500 people in seminars that cost big bucks. I'll make a very poor teacher or guru face-to-face. But I'm a publisher of a newsletter that has received some rave reviews from a lot of people - MarketingHotsheet.com. The real life case studies on this site are some of the best ones selected from that paid newsletter.
