The Monday Morning Memo


Monday Morning Memo subscribers can read 
Red Chaser for free.  No trick, nothing to buy; I’m just looking for more readers.

My last book, Marketing Outrageously, was a Wall Street Journal best-seller.  As you could expect, my agent and my publisher wanted me to write another marketing book.

What did I do?  I wrote a novel instead
Red Chaser.  It’s a noir thriller of the 1950s, the Cold War and the Brooklyn Dodgers.

My publisher shook his head and said, “Very few writers can cross over from non-fiction to fiction.”

But, most of my reading over the years has been thrillers.  If you spot me in an airport, I wouldn’t be reading a business book.  I’d be reading a thriller.  I wanted to write thrillers.

My publisher shook his head again and said, “Think business books.”

What made
Marketing Outrageously popular, however, were the stories inside the book.  I based those stories on real life business situations.

With
Red Chaser, I also based the story on real life situations.    I did far more research on Red Chaser than any of my non-fiction marketing books.  But, unlike my business books, there is some stuff that is made up in Red Chaser.  That’s what fiction is all about; that’s what makes it fun.

A key marketing tactic for
Marketing Outrageously was to get the book into the hands of business entrepreneurs throughout the country.  This nudged it in to the viral world.  I would like to do the same with Red Chaser.

Just email me (
findjon@msn.com) your email address, and I’ll have Amazon email you the gift certificate to download Red Chaser.

Red Chaser
is a Kindle book; if you don’t have a Kindle, you can download Red Chaser to your PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad or BlackBerry.

Give it a try for free.

Just email me (findjon@msn.com) your email address, and I’ll have Amazon email you the gift certificate to download Red Chaser.
