For Newbies and Anyone Else Planning a Launch Part 2

Checklist of Requirements for Book Launches on the John 3:16 Marketing Network

These requirements need to be in place before you set up a launch.

1.    You have five good reviews on Amazon if your book launch is taking place on Amazon (three, four, and five stars, and at least one four or five-star by a member of the network).

2.    You have the inside-the-book Amazon program set up for your book on Amazon.

3.    Your book is competitively priced.

4.    You have been a member of the John 3:16 Marketing Network for 45 days.

5.    You have helped at least two other John 3:16 authors on a book launch or showcase—for example, you have interviewed or posted a blog about an author, done a book review for an author, provided a free gift for a landing page for an author, or something similar (it must be more than just posting Facebook and Twitter announcements).

6.    Your email is set up on the John 3:16 Marketing Network forum to receive daily emails or condensed emails once daily. Receiving special notices only makes you an inactive member and ineligible to host an official book launch through the network. You may change your settings and then wait 45 days to announce an official book launch.

7.    You have read the book How to Launch a Christian Best-Seller in the last three months to refresh yourself on the proper steps to launching a book through the network.

8.    Your book is professionally edited.

If the above requirements are met, please send me an email letting me know you have met the requirements, and the date you would like to launch. Make sure you pick a week that is not already taken and post your book launch on the calendar on the forum. Please let me know the name of your book and if you plan on having a landing page on which you will be offering free e-gifts. 

If there are any issues with the above requirements, please email me so we can discuss it before you officially announce your launch on the forum. Thanks for your attentiveness to these details, and I hope this helps everyone to get off to a good start when hosting a launch through the John 3:16 Marketing Network.

Newbie’s Guide to Social Networking Part One

Set up a blog. The easiest and cheapest (free) to do is to set up a blogger account. Go to www.blogger.com

After you set up your blog, which should only take a few minutes, you want to add a follow button to your blog. This is very simple to do. On your blogger dashboard will be several different items you can add to your blog. First, click on layout, and then click on gadgets. Here is a screen shot of some of the items you will see:

Look for the option “followers.”  Click on that. Plug it into one of the places where it gives you an option to add a gadget. Now you will be able to capture followers to your blog as people visit your blog. Also, be sure and click on followers for the John 3:16 blog at http://john316mn.blogspot.com and follow us.

Now that you have your “follow” button set up, you want to add a couple of the John 3:16 widgets to your site. Here is a screen shot for the John 3:16 Marketing Network Blog widget.

You will notice under the widget on the right side the words “get widget.” Click on that and it will bring up an .HTML code. You take that code and copy and paste that into the option for .HTML/Java Script after going to layout and clicking on “add a gadget.” It will take you to a screen shot like below (you might have to click down the page a little bit).

Again, you click on .HTML/Java Script, and then you cut and paste in the code from the John 3:16 Marketing Network Blog widget. Click save, use your mouse to move around your new gadget if you don’t like where it’s appearing, save your blog again, and then you will now have the John 3:16 Marketing Network Blog widget on your blog. Since we created the widget, the widget has appeared over 100,000 times all over the Internet on various member blogs. That’s what networking does, and that is the power of networking.

You will notice we have other widgets on the John 3:16Marketing Network Blog, including the “countdown to launch” widget. Please feel free to share as many of the John 3:16 Marketing Network widgets on your site as you wish.

Please notice on the top left-hand side of your new blog a “share button.” If you click on that, you will have an option to share the page on Facebook or Twitter. If you want to share a specific blog and not the page, click on the title of the blog article and it will only share that specific article.

Be sure and post your first blog. I would recommend that you post at least every other week. Don’t know what to post? Think about who your target audience is. If you write Christian romance, perhaps you might write a book review about a Christian romance book. You might like to feature one of our John 3:16 Marketing Network romance authors on your blog. Just think about what you could post to attract followers, remembering content is king.

You can also announce your new blog on the John 3:16 Marketing Network forum. Many of the authors in the network will visit your site and start to follow you, and you will be well on your way to building a social networking platform.

Free Lesson Plan Teaches Lesson of Jonah

A free resource is now available to help teach the lesson of Jonah. Called The Lesson of Jonah: There is a Price to Pay when you Disobey, the ebook includes a short story involving a modern Jonah, discussion questions, Scripture citations and optional homework.

“The homework is to write a short story, which can be entered into a writing contesta writing contest for 10 to 14 year olds, who are to write exaggerated tales of woe or wail tales about kids who land in a whale of trouble for their wrong choices,” says Cheryl Rogers, publisher of New Christian Books Online Magazine.

The magazine is holding the writing contest in conjunction with the John 3:16 Marketing Network. The contest is intended to grow youths in their faith and introduce new readers to the magazine and its Christian authors.

The ebook gives churches, parents, Sunday school teachers and other interested adults a teaching tool, enabling them to play an active role in helping youths submit entries.

“The wail tales must be their own work, but the free lesson plan helps the children understand the biblical principles involved,” explains Cheryl.

Avid readers 9 to 17 can help judge the contest and get in on the fun by contacting Cheryl at http://www.songsfromtheword.com/NewChristianBooks/contact/

Entries must be submitted by email by July 15 to contest.newchristianbooks@earthlink.net  The first prize is $100, a $50 Walmart gift card and books by Christian authors.

Death in rural Wisconsin is only the beginning to new chaos in Robertsville. What do a stolen piece of revolutionary agricultural equipment, a long-buried skeleton in the yard, and an old quilt with secrets have in common? Hart and Judy Wingate, who met in The Gold Standard, are back to solve the mystery of The Map Quilt. Hart's new battery design could forever change the farm implement industry. But after the death of Hart's most confrontational colleague in a fire that destroys Hart's workshop, the battery is missing. Throw in a guest speaker invited to Judy's elementary classroom who insists she owns the land under Hart's chief competitor's corporate headquarters, and a police chief who's making eyes at Hart's widowed mother, it's no wonder Hart is under a ton of pressure to make sure his adventurous pregnant wife stays safe while trying to preserve his company and his reputation. Amazon Link Check out this Landing Page for Tuesday ONLY and see your FREE GIFTS if you buy on Tuesday Map Quilt by Lisa Lickel WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING! Lisa J. Lickel weaves mystery, myths, black history, and the dynamics of family and community into a great read. The thread in the story is the legend of map quilts used in the Underground Railroad to help slaves, and freedmen alike, escape their pursuers using fabric maps designed as quilts. By adding corporate intrigue and spiritual questioning to the mix, Lickel blends the fabric of daily life with pieces of history for a wonderful reading adventure. -Peggy Bennitt What could more intriguing than a contemporary mystery/romance about buried treasure that's also filled with history? The Map Quilt by Lisa J. Lickel is a fun and satisfying read for the grownups that still long for an involving mystery that provides plenty of detail without overemphasizing the grittier aspects of a story involving bodies. -Elaine Marie Cooper, author of the Deer Run books. Lisa Lickel's The Map Quilt snags the reader with the first sentence and doesn't let go until the last thread. As the sequel to her original Barbour cozy mystery, The Gold Standard, the tale continues with the lives of Hart and Judy Wingate. It seems that anticipation over the birth of their first child and the release of Hart's latest "green" project for his employer, AdventiveAg, would be enough to keep the young Wisconsin couple busy. But so much more is going on. -Davalynn Spencer, author of Always Before Me Lickel successfully weaves together history, mystery and likeable characters into a story that builds momentum and keeps me guessing until the very end. And she does it all without the gratuitous sex and violence that permeates this genre. Beyond providing a great read, this book introduced me to a great author. -Steve Miller, author of Social Media Frenzy Learn More About Lisa and Her Family Multi-published author, novelist Lisa J. Lickel also enjoys writing and performing radio theater, short story-writing, is an avid book reviewer and blogger. She enjoys teaching writing workshops and working with new writers and freelance editing. She is the editor of both Wisconsin Writers Association's Creative Wisconsin magazine.
