I had some people helping me promote a book this week.
As you may or may not know, I started a publishing company almost two years ago, and as part of the process of publishing and marketing books, I wanted to create a “Book Launch” strategy so that the authors whose books we publish could get a good start on helping people learn about their book.
But before I used this Book Launch strategy on one of the books from the various authors we have published, I wanted to experiment with it using one of my own books first. So I chose Why You Have Not Committed the Unforgivable Sin and recruited ten people to help me spread the word about this book.
Of the ten who agreed to get a free book and help me spread the word about this book, here are the six who actually followed through (Thanks!):
Each member of this book launch team has a blog. Just click on their names to go check out their own writings. They all write fantastic stuff.
This Book Launch team helped me out this past week with this first Book Launch. They provided some insights and suggestions for changing future book launches, but for the most part, I think the Book Launch strategy is good to go.
I definitely need to tweak some things with the process, and so the next several launches will be somewhat different than the one I just finished.
Anyway, I am now accepting applications for future book launches. I need to replace the four who dropped out, and maybe a few more as well. I have four books ready to go now, and two more (hopefully) by the end of the year.
The next book I want to launch is a book called What to Expect from the Holy Spirit by Dr. Earl Radmacher. I want to launch this in LESS THAN TWO WEEKS!!!

In this book, Maxine tackles the difficult issue of the believer’s relationship with the 10 Commandments. She persuasively shows how Jesus set aside the Old Covenant with its rules and regulations and gave us a New Covenant based on the one command to love one another.
Want to get your book published? Do you have a manuscript and are seeking a publisher, or are thinking of writing a book, but don’t know where to begin?
Through my brainstorming, I think I found a way to “redeem the press,” that is, to remove some of the negative elements of the publishing industry, and add in some elements and principles of the Kingdom of God, specifically, elements of truth, generosity, and grace.
