Mwahahahahaaaahaa! That’s a jungle-ish sound made by Tarzan when he has had a stunning realization or a big win over a dead lion.
With me, it’s the former. I just did something that I didn’t think was possible — I promoted an item, a game download page in fact, that delivers “SlimeWars” in a playable package for only $6.95 — but how to market it for no money down, no payments, ever??? Continue reading
Dear Sir or Madam,
You were chosen to represent my book, “The American Book of the Dead”. I am already a famous author — check me out on google to verify this — and at the age of 79, I want to “pay back” society for my continued good fortune and high-volume book sales.
I have appeared at many author’s awards ceremonies and onstage with many of my co-writing friends, such as Ray Bradbury, Frank Herbert, Isaac Asimov and Robert Heinlein, and photos abound of me with many hundreds of other celebrities.
The American Book of the Dead has already sold well over a million copies, and is often found in university libraries. I have delivered lectures on the subject on panels with Dr. Claudio Naranjo, Dr. Timothy Leary, Dr. John C. Lilly, Venerable Thich Thien-An, Tarthang Tulku, Rinpoche, Ven. Chogyam Trungpa, Robert Anton Wilson, Robert de Ropp and many others, and in fact, we publish some of their books and produce tape recordings that feature us onstage together.
The American Book of the Dead appeals to a wide audience, and you should have no trouble finding traffic that’s looking for this popular and readable volume.
I’m a big fan of marketing, although I stay strictly in the creative area myself, and I’m actively looking to help deserving youngsters like yourself, and that’s why I’m allowing myself some time to work on this project.
Looking forward to working with you, I remain yours truly,

Here are some good “target urls” that could be made into landing pages, selling pages, productive pages.
ask hives — This could be made into a gallery where you could buy signed and numbered prints on fine art paper, at a mere $50 apiece, for instance, for the small ones — 5″x7″ — and more for larger prints, of course. An enterprising person could add framing, which is where all the profit is in print dealing. You’ll sell anything just to get the framing job, and that’s a great side-hustle in itself.

If you want to promote a book, use the sales page as your target, or “landing” page. These people are NOT verified by me as good, effective or reliable, but I will test them and report back to you on results.
The first on the list, although not necessarily better than the others, is “pronomics”, which promises an interview on iHeart radio — you can listen for yourself to see if if meets your expectations, but the real test is, “did you sell any books???”.
The result of any sales campaign should be checkable by reviewing the increase in sales during the campaign. Continue reading
If you didn’t understand a word of that title — shit, gold or dope — you’re not alone. You have plenty of company in your fellow baby boomers, and you’d be totally lost in the Brave New World of social media and 21st century marketing, which is very social, if you get my meaning, but the sociality is 100% artificial, like the life.
In short, you don’t speak the language anymore, dude. You’re utterly clueless in a world of swiping thumbs and shorthand text-style speech. You don’t know how to cope with a world that’s all masked up and socially distanced.
So you need to hire somebody to help you get your stuff out there. You can’t do it with what you’ve always done. It don’t work no more, and Windows 10 is your enemy. Continue reading
Here are some suggestions for “target landing pages” that should and could be heavily marketed and would produce good results for us:
Click the photo to see the LRS landing page I have in mind for total blastoff promotion. I would like to raise money to promote the LRS. Continue reading
That’s right, the first fiverr person that I’m listing below promises — money back guarantee — that you will get 1,000,000 actual non-bot “organic” visitors to your selected url page.
He’s listed as a vetted pro, and you’ll note many positive feedbacks. His total price for the premium package is, you’ll note, a mere $45.00, so even if it’s a total bust, you don’t take a heavy hit for it.
On the other hand, if he can deliver even a few hundred thousand visitors to a url, think how easy it would be to apply that to youtube, in order to grow a channel fairly fast — only 15 days to reach 1,000,000. Continue reading
This is just one example of the kind of building this guy does — mostly Kibri Kits and City Classics style, looks like a miniature train layout, which is exactly what we want, only we want it for the iphone and android, and our game engine just doesn’t go like that, we only do PC games with the Godd™ engine, and I’m not trained to handle the Unity engine, although I’ve tried.
Here’s an interesting possibility… This guy, firasferjen319, claims he can write the whole game in any platform — for android, ios, windows hd, and here’s the problem it solves:
We don’t have any way of rewriting our games as an android or iphone game. The best thing would be to simply copy the game over from PC to a smartphone platform, so I’d send him my game and ask him to come as close as possible to it. Continue reading

It’s true — there are people Out There who are willing — and perhaps able — to promote your video to hundreds of thousands of potential viewers through fiverr.com and I checked it out to see if they are really there, and they are.
Go to fiverr, business section, and enter “youtube video promotion” into the search line, and see what you get — but click the “Pro” button before you wade through all the entries, and pay attention to who got praise from users.
Here’s the thing — you might pick out your best video, one that you made and uploaded, of course, and then hire someone on fiverr to promote it.
Does this work? Hard to say. Some of them get lucky, some don’t, but you have their feedback to guide you there.
In terms of obtaining what you want from the deal, that’s another story. Myself, I don’t want big numbers, I want quality, which means a very narrow niche market, like astral projection or interdimensional travel.
There aren’t millions of people out there looking for real information about these ideas — they just want something to satisfy their fears, hopes, hungers, sensations and urges.
Nothing serious. Continue reading
