How 'bout this latest from PA, rec'd yesterday 08-07 (submitted without comment - of which I could make a lot!):
"Dear author:
Do you have a
website about your book? Not too much traffic going on? PublishAmerica will
help you attract visitors. Possibly many, many visitors.
We will
email our almost
50,000 authors to alert them to your
website and urge them to click and visit and to tell others to visit. We will also let our
30,000 news media contacts know about
your website and invite the to visit and contact you.
Brace yourself for the extra traffic. Be sure to have "contact me" link on your site!
Go to
www.publishamerica.net, find your softcover, use this discount coupon
: Website40. Minimum order volume is
only 2 or more copies. Use the coupon on your
softcover only. All non-softcover orders under the Website coupons will
not be processed, so you'll be wasting your money if you try.
Use the
Website50 coupon for orders of
6 or more softcovers and an even better discount, and we'll tell our 50,000 authors and 30,000 media contact about your website
twice, with a 2-week interval!
In the Ordering Instructions box, simply mention the url of your website, your name, and the title of your book. We'll take care of the rest.
Have a nice weekend,
--PublishAmerica Bookstore"
OK, I can't resist. My only comment at this point: I would have had a nicer weekend had I not received this.
