Audio Commercials and Podcast Promotions

Subject: Audio Commercials and Podcast Promotion

EDC Creations wants to create commercials and audio promotions for your book. I will use the podcasts to send out to my people. Just sending a eblast is not what makes my click-through rate so high. When you follow the link and instructions below, you can create one type of recording or you can create all three. I use them on my radio show as fillers. They will also become part of my new all author's site. Do not state a DATE or EVENT during the recordings. It will date the recording and I won't be able to use it as long.

Read all the instructions below, then I need for you to create a BAN radio plug, I will play this at least 3-4 times per month. Sound jubilant, excited and just full of joy to convey the info. Here is the script for a 1 minute commercial:

(Ask 2-3 intimate questions in regards to your new book, that sparks interest)

My name is _____and I'm the author of ______. You can find these answers inside my book, ______. Meet (name your two main characters) as they ________ (fill in the blank with something fun that they are doing). For the most ____(add an adjective) conversation on the planet, tune into the Black Authors Network Radio Show!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The recordings will be commercials too! Follow the instructions to the letter! I will delete all multiple recordings for the same book. If you mess up do not just hang up! Read all the instructions before you begin. Practice what you will say before you start recording. Have fun! Full instruction listed at the link below.
