Free PromoDay Conference: Talk About Frugal!

A couple of years ago I was a presenter at Jo Linsdell's free PromoDay online conference. Then last year, Jo was an honored guest at the Roman Retreat that award-winning UCLA instructor Eve Caram and I put together. Obviously, I highly recommend it for my frugal following.  Also, you'll see this is an opportunity for you to get experience as a presenter.  Here is Jo's invitation to you:

PROMO DAY is back again this year and full of new features to give you even more opportunities to promote, network and learn. One big new addition is the forum workshops. These workshops will take place through out the day meaning you can take part regardless of what time zone you find yourself in.


Confirmed workshops so far include:

Blogging with Joyce Anthony

365 Days of non-stop marketing with Sandy Lender

Writing series with Joyce Lavene

Publishing with Lulu with Donald Anderson

Twitter with Jo Linsdell

As with past events there will also be LIVE workshops in the chatroom. Each one lasts one hour. All times listed are in C.E.T.

16:00 There's Nothing Virtual About the Work in an Online Book Tour with Sandy Lender

18:00 Selling through independent bookshops with Sweetinterludes Bookshop

20:00 Writing Book Reviews: Lessons Learned with Tannia Ortiz-Lopes

I still have space for more workshops so if you'd like to join this years Promo Day Crew drop me an email with a brief outline of what your workshop will cover and your bio. If LIVE chat I'll also need to know what start time you prefer in CET (time converter on site if needed).

All crew members get one book featured in the on site bookstore for free as a thank you for your time and effort. Additional books can be added at €5,00 per book.

If you have any questions about the event please feel free to contact me.
