I loved this site when I first saw it. I know it cliche but “keep it up”

Excellent report and certainly overwhelming at first. I’ve promised to do one thing a day to make my goals come true whether it means reading one recommended post and apply it’s suggestions, or simply taking a break (that counts).

It all goes towards future success. Breaks are so important!

I like using reciprocity over reward. Makes me feel better and it simply creates better relationships. Thanks for bringing this to the attention of the IM world at large. It can make IM a more pleasant place, and improve our rep among people who think that marketing is sleazy.

Great report! In this instance, free will pay dividends.

I’m interested in the thinking behind not including an “About the Author” blurb on the downloadable PDF. I can see the pros/cons but was curious why you made that decision.

I’m a big fan of reg-free stuff … both as a consumer and a publisher. Thanks for bringing such quality content to your fans – we’re obviously eating it up.

Oh, and I love the Hemingway advice. I’m a whisky girl myself – will give it a try one of these days. Just have to remember not to hit the “publish” button until the next morning – woah, that could get dangerous!!

Anyway – I’m really enjoying everything you’ve got on the table including the Teaching Sells material. My head was already full of Big Ideas, but now I’m feeling like someone (that’d be you!) has given me the gift of a structure that will make those ideas tangible reality. Excitement doesn’t cover what I’m feeling. Thanks.

Brian,

1st – thanks for putting out useful information/content all the time. I read your blog plenty and always get something out of what I read.

2nd – I love that you gave this away and didn’t have us fill out some long form or give you our email. That makes me want to subscribe even more. (even though I already am subscribed). That approach let’s me get something out of what you provided and then come back because I enjoyed what you gave me. That’s a win win transaction to me.

I’ve thought about that Hemingway advice before, but I’m not sure I could stay at the keyboard and not go dancing on the table instead…

I really like the idea of reciprocity, which underscores the fact that we should be giving to our audience first and foremost anyway.

Great food for thought.
