What Self-Publishing Authors Have To Say About Personal Marketing Assistance

From Kaakyire Akosomo Nyantakyi, author of Practical English Level 365 Vol 1

Outskirts Press assigned Melanie Solomon as my Personal Marketing Assistant when my book, Practical English Level 365 Vo. 1, was published. It’s been just about six months since but I am inclined to show my heart-felt appreciation by officially acknowledging the recognition she so well deserves.

Melanie shows so much concern to ensure that my book gets nothing but excellent promotion prospects. Efficiency with courtesy attached is a rare combination in most of today‘s work places, but Melanie combines both with alacrity. If there is an Award at Outskirts Press, I do not hesitate to nominate Melanie Solomon.

From Ed Benjamin, author of Cash In on the Obama $3 Trillion Spending Plan!

I have had the privilege of working with Ms. Sally Shields as my Personal Marketing Assistant. Sally has helped me market my book, Cash In on the Obama $3 Trillion Spending Plan!: How to make large amounts of money by conducting business with or receiving grants from federal, state, and local governments.

Sally Shields is a phenomenal force of nature and when it comes to advising people on how to market their book, there is no equal. She speaks from experience having learned the lessons she promotes in her counseling sessions from selling her own book, The Daughter-in-Law Rules: 101 Surefire Ways to Manage (and Make Friends with) Your Mother-In-Law! Her book is a perennial best seller on Amzaon.com and other venues. (I know this for a fact because I checked her out on Amazon myself.)

Her advice is timely and thought provoking and is targeted toward helping her client maximize sales of his/her book. There is no one whom I would rather have in my corner than Sally Shields.

Would I recommend Sally as a Personal Marketing Assitant? The answer is an unqualified YES!, YES!, YES!

From Birinder Bhullar, author of The Supreme Being

My experience with the entire team of Outskirts Press has been highly exceptional at all stages. The sweetest part of my experience came in the end. Every author publishes to sell a book. This is a stage every author looks forward to. The Personal Marketing Assistance offered by Outskirts leaves the author asking for nothing more. My experience with Maritt Bird and the concern with which she helped me exalted my previous rating of Outskirts from extraordinary to Supreme. Believe me I am not overstating even one bit.

Self Publishing Spotlight: Cash in on the Obama $3 Trillion Spending Plan!

Ed Benjamin, a retired Air Force Colonel and currently a consultant to industry, knows how to win contracts. In his 19-year career he has led proposal teams to win over $12 billion in US, foreign, state, and county government contract awards, and now he’s sharing his expertise in a new book, Cash in on the Obama $3 Trillion Spending Plan! How to make large amounts of money by conducting business with or receiving grants from federal, state, and local governments. The book, published by Outskirts Press, is a complete, step-by-step guide to winning government business and receiving grants. With the passage of President Barack Obama’s historic stimulus bill, there’s never been a better time to do business with the government.
According to Benjamin: “This book is designed to help both the beginner in the government contracting process and the experienced business development professional.” The author further states that this book “represents a distillation of my 19 years of experience writing and managing proposals and my service in the Air Force, where I served on acquisition teams to buy major weapons systems.” He points out that the proposal alone does not guarantee a contract award, but a well-written proposal that meets government requirements goes a long way toward influencing the government to award a contract or grant.Cash in on the Obama $3 Trillion Spending Plan offers those businesses seeking government contracts a step-by-step guide toward obtaining government business; it also provides those companies that are already in the government business arena with secrets to writing winning proposals. As a bonus, the book contains detailed information on selling to state and local governments, and information for those applying for government assistance.

Government evaluators have consistently rated Benjamin’s proposals as being complete and thorough. He has helped his clients win contracts worth over $12 billion—including the contract to build the presidential helicopter fleet. This book is a compilation of his years of experience and accumulated wisdom in dealing with the government. It explains:

• How the government awards contracts
• How to register for government business
• How to read and analyze a government solicitation
• How to position your business in the government marketplace
• How the government buys goods and services
• How to prepare a proposal or grant request that meets all government requirements
• How to navigate through bureaucratic red tape normally associated with government contracting

Cash in on the Obama $3 Trillion Spending Plan is professionally written, well organized, and easy to navigate, with 200 pages of valuable information for individuals and companies alike. It is available online through Ingram Book Wholesalers, Amazon, and Barnes & Noble.
