Let’s just say I was not a happy camper today!

So I just “happened” to have my laptop with me and it just “happens” to have a built in camera so I could capture this.

However, there is a silver lining. Watch for it.

BTW, a lot of you have been asking “What’s up with May 16th?”

I’ll address that in more detail next week. But you can click here for details.

REALITY CHECK

The wrong white paper topic at the front of an excellent marketing campaign will fail.

The fact is that picking the right topic is paramount to success with a marketing white paper.

Think about it: Great books, great movies and just about any great anything is ‘great’ because is resonates with people.

Your job is to find the right topic that your ideal reader’s REALLY care about.

This video gives you some EASY ways to pinpoint that topic (life shouldn’t be overly difficult, right!).

NOTE: This video is a sample from an upcoming course I’ll be teaching.

I’m sure you must be asking that question.

Of course it does.

Here’s what the company in the video did right:

#2: The made sure everyone knew about the paper
#3: They provided a sample BEFORE asking anyone to do anything

The results???
