Are you turned off by marketing and sales...but you need to promote your work to make a living?

There's no shortage of marketing programs, and maybe you've tried a few. But they don't work for you because you can't bring yourself to use the strategies they recommend.

In fact, the very word "strategy" is a turn-off. Who wants to treat prospective clients like targets in a military campaign.

Besides, those so-called "easy steps" turn out to be not so easy after all. Especially if you are a renaissance person who has a hard time cramming everything you are into some canned elevator speech.

What if effective self-promotion could be authentic, even graceful?

Plenty of professionals in the creative and human potential fields are making good livings because they've learned to promote themselves gracefully. If they can do it, so can you.

You can learn the secrets of authentic promotion from the free Authentic Promotion Ezine. When you subscribe, you'll receive the free 31-page guide, Principles of Authentic Promotion. Sign up to the right:
