Publicity Tip of the Week: Every Writing Career is a Small Business

Here's an article from Filmmakers.com that includes a great tip: treat your writing career as a small business.

Publicity, marketing, A BUSINESS PLAN, are all essential to anyone engaging in any sort of industry, be it a solo operation or a mega-conglomerate.

What I like about this article is that it refers readers to a website where they can download a business plan to help them get started.

I also like it because it underscores a message that Hal delivers in his public appearances: every film is a labor of creative love to its writer, but a small business plan to its producer and distributor.

Hal calls this "Making Passion into Product," and that's a good term for it. A certain amount of practicality is necessary for surviving in the arts. Unless you really enjoy chewing on your boots and pretending it's jerky.

And that, friends, is the Publicity Tip of the Week. Have a great weekend!

Special DNN - BUSINESS NEWS Report For Kristen!

-- FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- PRESS RELEASE DNN - BUSINESS NEWS.
The Ten million dollar pixel website does something NO other ONE million pixel web site can! - The'll Give TWO million dollar away!!
Just recently we reported about The Tenmilliondollarwebsite.com. The site is a copycat of The Million Dollar Homepage by a 21-year-old British entrepreneur Alex Tew. The Ten million dollar is rapidly evolving into the fastest growing 'pixel' web site online. They now offer $2.000.000,00 to the largest advertiser on their site.

THE NETHERLANDS, October, 2005 - The tenmilliondollarwebsite.com takes pixel advertising several big steps further. As you can see on http://tenmilliondollarwebsite.com/blog The site had more than 100,000.00 pageviews in 6 weeks being online!! We now have an Alexa page rank far into the 100.000 says Walter proud. He and Janwillem, two guys from The Netherlands are the owners of the site.

They want to live their dream and start an own (Internet) marketing, hosting and consultant business, using the proceedings of the site... They have without a doubt the most valuable name...

To boost the value of your TROPI (Traffic Return On Pixel Investment we learned) they organized a huge and unique promotion!
Asking about this special promotion, Janwillem says: As said before, we can do something no other million dollar website can do: We are giving away more than $2.000.000,00!!

We will give one of our advertisers $2.000.000,00 ( two million dollars) as soon as our site is filled for 50%! The best thing about it is: Nobody needs to participate in any kind of lottery to have a chance to become a millionaire.

We asked the guys from Holland who will get the money then and what they have to do for it;. It is simple, they replied. To win this $2.000.000,00, you'll need to become the largest advertiser on our site and we'll personally give you $2.000.000,00 (two million dollars). We will do so as soon as our site is filled for 50%!!

On top of this, we'll choose five of our advertisers at random, no matter what size or time they are with us, and reward them each with $100.000,00! Also after the site is filled for 50%! So, in fact, we are giving away $2,500.000,00! Part of that could be yours. All you need to do is buy some pixels on our site!

Walter tells us that he knew their site would become a success and now he predicts this promotion will boost the site in the top five movers and shakers!!' We are here to set records! And we will. This means great exposure for all of our advertisers! We have had people boosting their sales figures mainly by the visitors they get from us!

A great stunt like this will certainly attract oceans of curious and click happy people who will be visiting our site. Who would not want to get $2.000.000,00 in cash from the ten million dollar website? Just for being the largest advertiser on the only TEN million dollar website!

Both guys smile when they say: We'll invite anyone to buy pixels and have a chance to change their lives!
Wow, Even if you would buy advertisement for $1.000.000,00 you'd still gain a full 100%
Remember! Your $100,00 pixel friends placed on our site could mean you gain at least $100.000,00!!!

We are no students, and we are not looking to pay for college. Yet, when the site is successful enough, we would love to pay and we will pay for people who never had college or even seen a school before in their lives. We have made plans when the site reaches a certain level of success, says Janwillem.

Find out more about Walter and Janwillem, W2solutions.info and their www.tenmilliondollarwebsite.com
W2solutions.info will be a Dutch business which offers profit design, profit solutions, web hosting services, consultation services and they endeavor to use own design as well as open source software for client projects wherever possible in order to keep development costs down. We are working very hard to try and get this baby walking. The site will be a great help. We ask anyone to buy our pixels.

Be their largest advertiser and gain $2.000.000,00!

Because bigger is better.
