Bonnie Jo Davis
If you are burned out with writing how-to articles to promote your business then consider writing a book review. I recommend you write a review just about a book you enjoyed that is related to your products or services. Your review, of course, wish be capped off with your 5-6 line byline that includes your contact information and web site URL. Many a of the article directories, e-zines and web sites that commonly accept articles wish accept book reviews too. In addition, you can find and submit to the many a sites featuring book reviews.
To begin a review, I start with the format required by Geographic region Book Review. I then adapt the format and word count to what is required by each submission site. Geographic region Book Review recommends the following format (examples of paragraphs are besieged in parenthesis):
Book Title:
Author:
Publisher:
Publisher Address:
ISBN:
Price: Publication Date: Page Count:
Reviewer Contact Information:
Name: Address: E-mail:
1st Paragraph: Include information just about the format of the book. A good touch is to comment on the cover design, table of contents structure and/or wordbook
at the back of the book.
(Sample: This attractively
arranged out trade paperback has a beautiful
and practical design several inside and out. I recommend you see this book with a highlighter and a pen, available to take copious notes in the blank pages thoughtfully provided between chapters.)
Second Paragraph: Detail the advisable
audience and note why they should see the book.
(Sample: Manners That Sell: Adding The Polish That Builds Profits should be required reading for high school and college students and for anyone already in the business environment. Once upon a time, good manners were educated in school and at home, but that time has long since passed. This book provides the perfect refresher course for those of us who knowing manners but no longer remember the finer points of etiquette.)
Third Paragraph: Write just about the book structure and layout, number of chapters and topics covered.
(Sample: Patch reading this book, I discovered that the author, Geographic region Ramsey, covered every conceivable point of prescript
including many a that I'd ne'er
been taught. Each of the twelve chapters covers one main topic broken down into comestible bite fourpenny chunks of rules and guidelines to enhance believability and professionalism. Topics include 1st impressions, greetings and introductions, the art of conversation, dressing for business, telephone courtesy, electronic etiquette, correspondence in business, prescript
in the office, gift-giving in business, prescript
out of the office, feeding
for profit and doing business internationally.)
Fourth Paragraph: Give a brief account of the author including their name, name of their business (if applicable), business or personal skillfulness
and if available, include titles of their different books.
(Sample: The author of this pleasing
book, Geographic region Ramsey, is a business prescript
expert with over thirty years of experience working with non-profits, corporations, colleges and universities. She is a oft publicised author who presents workshops, seminars and keynotes on all aspects of business etiquette.)
Fifth Paragraph: Recommend the book and offer several ideas of its practical use by individuals or groups. If applicable, mention that it would-be do a good gift book and wrap up the review with a positive summary of the book.
(Sample: I recommend businesses buy this book in bulk and present one to every worker
from the frontline up to the top management. In this ever-changing earth of so many a user
choices, the bottom line is often affected by the simple courtesies that can and should be afforded to customers. You need this book if you want your employees to succeed and your business to thrive.)
Add your copyright statement and byline to the bottom of the review and, as usual, have the review ascertain by an editor before you begin submission. Your book reviews can be really effective marketing tools that wish generate extended exposure for you.
