Last week, I heard from Clark Roberts, who successfully earned a fabulous story in the Bellevue Reporter as a direct result of lessons I taught him that he put into immediate action to the benefit of his speaking career and his upcoming personal appearances. He is a blind man with a powerful message about seeing unlimited possibilities. Thanks to the influential media exposure he made happen by practicing lessons and step by step actions I shared with him, many more possibilities are opening up to him now that his message has traveled with impact in his Bellevue backyard.
I also heard from Dennis Williams, founder and creator of the Cash Map Application. He said that the press release he issued over the wire resulted is six times more web traffic than is typical for him. That is a great deal more people who are now learning how to manage their positive cash flow to reduce their debt at a time when that outcome is much needed.
It is so thrilling to hear about the successes action oriented business owners are taking to broadcast their brilliance so more of the right people can benefit. If you need a little help in this department, join me for the Broadcast Your Brilliance Webinar Series gearing up to start this Wednesday, October 5 at 11 a.m. PST. Save $100 when you enter “Webinar100″ in the coupon code when you buy.

Something unexpected happened during this call that ended up being a great gift to me and a great credibility builder for the Broadcast Your Brilliance Webinar Series, especially if you are meeting me for the first time during this call. At the 60-minute point, I was dropped from my own call. You know what happened? The guests and course graduates who I had invited to join me on the call just jumped into the void and took the opportunity to sing my praises while I did my best to chime back into the call. They said some wonderful things that make me so proud to have the opportunity to do this work in the world.
Thank you Vicki Abadesco, Shari Swoish, Karen Rothstein, Elizabeth Venturini, and the others who jumped in to add your comments and support to the value I bring.

Anniversaries are cause to look back and reflect, and here is a fun story with a happy ending that can help YOU.
My journey to become a storyteller got a powerful jump-start when I enrolled in an Introduction to Public Relations course at UC San Diego back in 1983. My instructor was Henry DeVries, and he sure taught me a lot about sassy sound bites and how to capture attention with well chosen words.
In my first assignment, I was asked to write a press release about the sex habits of the Komodo Dragons at the San Diego Zoo. As you can well imagine, I had a lot of fun with that prickly and passionate tale of wow. In fact, Henry scribbled a note on my homework paper and said, “You have potential and will go far as a PR professional.” I beamed with pride and tucked my homework assignment away as my career and life took shape.
Right around 2002, I found that homework assignment in a file folder and smiled. I wasn’t sure if Henry would remember me, but I decided to send him a note to let him know I had made something of my PR career after all. Well, he DID remember me. We started corresponding by email. I engaged his coaching services to help me grow my very new business into a six-figure business. Being a woman of action, I did everything he guided me to do and more. His advice has paid off for me very well so far. He jokes now that this student’s progress has surpassed that of her teacher. That said, I am happy to report that I’ll be interviewing him on January 24 so you can benefit. Henry is among my favorite “Marketing with a Book” experts, and I think you’ll really enjoy his engaging, personable, and authentic teaching style. If you’d like to join us on this free call, please register and invite people you know to join us on this not-to-be-missed call!
And, if you’d like to join in my business anniversary celebration this week, enjoy the $10 Off coupon that you can redeem THIS WEEK ONLY (through 1-16-11) on Bye-Bye Boring Bio, this Friday’s session of Bye-Bye Boring Bio Action Workshop, or the NEW Publici-Tea™ and Book Publishing E-Summit. Just visit the DIY Publicity Store, make your selection, and enter “10OffNow” in the coupon code section of the online order form. The discount will apply immediately to your savings advantage — this week only!
When writing headlines, have some fun to capture attention. That’s why today’s blog post is bursting with B’s. Why wimp out with boring and blah, blah, blah when bursting with enthusiasm is the better alternative?
With that as an introduction and a timely DIY publicity lesson for the day, here’s the latest news about Bye-Bye Boring Bio that comes in perfect timing to inspire groups and associations to take note and act. As luck and timing would have it, I was working on this press release yesterday when a call came in from an organization that serves small business owners in Washington State. There seems to be a fair amount of interest in finding a way to collaborate to bring Bye-Bye Boring Bio to the members, and I can’t wait to see where next the conversation leads. Nothing would make me more proud than for Bye-Bye Boring Bio to earn the support and advocacy of organizations worldwide that support small business success. Read on for the details of the volume purchasing program, and get in touch so we can explore the best fit ways to collaborate to invite winning results for all.

143-PageBye-Bye Boring Bio Workbook, packed with bios that are already attracting clients, speaking gigs, and media interviews now!
Want Your Bye-Bye Boring system as a Spiral Bound Workbook with 143 pages to turn, savor and enjoy forever?
Here is a very public “Thank You” to Publicity Hound Joan Stewart for showcasing the lessons in the Bye-Bye Boring Bio Action Guide on her blog and linking to this post via her Publicity Hound ezine today.
It’s my pleasure to extend the anniversary sale special offer to receive the Publici-Tea™ Express Digital Workshop as a high value bonus to anyone who puts “Joan Stewart” in the comments section of their online order form when they purchase the Bye-Bye Boring Bio Action Guide or the NEW DIY Publicity Success System between now and March 31, 2010.
Speaking of which, here is a fun video my good friend and Publici-Tea™ graduate Betsy Talbot captured today from the sunroom of my Bellevue home to tell you more about this comprehensive self-study system that is as delicious as it is useful. Tune in now!
(Bellevue, WA – March 1, 2010) – In what the Wall Street Journal describes as today’s “ago of going solo,” independent professionals and publicity seekers are attempting to declare their expertise so the right people will listen and act. To support that quest, today through March 7, 2010, Authentic Visibility Founder and DIY Publicity Expert Nancy Juetten launches an anniversary sale through which people can purchase the popular and well-reviewed Bye-Bye Boring Bio Action Guide and receive the equally popular and well-reviewed Publici-Tea™ Express Digital Workshop as a high value bonus gift.
Juetten says, “Quickly establishing trust, like and respect online and in person has never been more crucial. People are no longer buying from ‘companies’ they are buying from ‘people.’ And the beginning of the relationship starts with business owners and independent business professionals declaring who they are, the value they bring, and why their expertise matters more than ever to the right people now.”As a result of her nine years working in the trenches with clients as a publicist and storyteller, Juetten has been struck by the struggle business owners experience as they attempt to describe what they do and for whom in compelling, clear terms.
She created the Bye-Bye Boring Bio Action Guide to make it easy for independent business professionals such as coaches, consultants, soloprenuers, aspiring and thriving authors, speakers, and infopreneurs to write compelling bios to advance their goal of earning expert status now.
Juetten suggests that people summarize their experience by combining four essential ingredients into a winning bio recipe — stunning results, succinct stories, sassy sound bites, and social information to help ideal clients connect with them. That helps people quickly organize their most compelling contributions.
“Would you rather hire a sales trainer who believes that cold calling is best left in the freezer or hire a sales trainer with a far less memorable way of sharing her point of view? That is the power of a sassy sound bite,” Juetten says. “If your bio sounds like ‘blah, blah, blah’ to you, you can bet a decision maker is going to agree. Go deep, describe your experience in memorable, magnetic, and meaningful ways that matter to them, and the right doors will open so you can get to work and get on with your life,” Juetten suggests.
“Guiding people and organizations to use words wisely in their website and blog bios, social media profiles, speaker pages, speaker introductions, and book jackets to invite relationships and new opportunities is the essential problem that the Bye-Bye Boring Bio Action Guide solves at a time when a solution is needed, now more than ever,” says Juetten. She even offers an Extreme Bio Makeover Service in which she will upgrade a client’s best effort draft to be even better.
Thousands of business owners, out-of-work employees, and publicity-seekers across Main Street USA and the world continue to toil in their search for new engagements and media recognition. The Bye-Bye Boring Bio Action Guide is packed with examples of real life bios that compel, along with step-by-step instructions and convenient templates that make it easy for others to write their own stories with speed, ease, and impact.
The Publici-Tea™ Digital Express Workshop invites business owners to learn the nuts and bolts of do-it-yourself publicity and book publishing so they can prepare and share their stories with much wider audiences. The over 100 minutes of audio files packed with real-life stories of decisive, stunning do-it-yourself publicity success stories from business owners, resource-rich Power Point presentation, and access to special offers and useful links and resources that deliver abundant value.
