Becky Cortino Interviews Feedblitz Founder Phil Hollows on List Building for Bloggers

15 Jun

Phil Hollows, Feedblitz Founder and author of "List Building for Bloggers" on Biz Buzz!

“The money is in the list!” An opt-in email list is one of the most valuable business assets. List-building is for anyone with physical products, services and information products to offer. Blogs provide an easy and effective way to accomplish this.

Recently, I wrote about the importance of list building from the standpoint of marketing successfully, and shared about a new eBook that Feedblitz founder Phil Hollows just published: List Building for Bloggers. I recommended his book, and apparently it has been very well-received, having sold over 500 copies since it’s release a little less than one month ago.

I’m thrilled for Phil Hollows, as his eBook is comprised of 190 info-packed pages, and for the folks who are benefiting from the insights he shares!

I’m also thrilled to be hosting him on Biz Buzz Thursday, June 16 1PM ET/ Noon CT / 10AM PT:

Creating a Buzz for Your Biz Like Magic with Sammy Cortino

19 May

Illusionist Sammy Cortino

Effective communication utilizing all media is a powerful vehicle for business owners and professionals — there’s nothing “magic” about that. However, when strategically used in an appropriate integrated communications plan, it seems to work like magic!

On August 6, 2010, 22 year-old illusionist Sammy Cortino set the World Record for the fastest blindfolded and ambidextrous card manipulations (card sleight of hand), where he manipulated over 300 cards in 90-seconds. The media coverage on the event was astounding! All forms of media were used in promoting and covering it: New, Social and Traditional.

You probably aren’t looking to set a World Record for card manipulation, but how about increasing sales, your customer base, or creating a stir for your product, service or passion?

Catch an insightful Biz Buzz interview on Thursday, May 19 1PM ET with illusionist Sammy Cortino, as he shares the behind-the-scenes and backstory of promoting and communicating to draw attention, increase awareness at low-cost, while increasing visibility and bottomline, in the process!

Sammy shares ideas and information to help you cut through the clutter and noise, communicating your message to your best business advantage.

Some Real Magic: “Synthesis” Performed by Magic’s Royal Duke Sammy Cortino World Record Challenge

30 Jul

"Synthesis" World Record Challenge August 6, 2010

Isn’t it time for something new, fresh and fun?! How about establishing a brand new World Record? I’m hearing a lot of folks talk about “magic” methods, biz systems, and how things have worked like it — how about adding some real magic to your day — in just 90-seconds?!

Here’s the scoop, and how to do that…

Magic’s Royal Duke Sammy Cortino is presenting his card manipulation challenge — “Synthesis”:

Event to be held on Friday, August 6 1:30-2:30PM EDT; “Synthesis” performed at 2PM EDT, from Facebook and in-person at the Julian G. Whitener Municipal Building in downtown Hickory, NC and streaming live on Facebook…

Sammy’s “Synthesis” is a combo of Houdini’s old sleight of hand techniques, presented in new way, as a ‘stunt,’ in Houdini’s style… the challenge will be officiated by the Honorable Mayor Rudy Wright.

“Synthesis” details: Sammy’s World Record Challenge is manipulating 300 cards (almost 6 decks of playing cards, 5 1/2″ high, stacked), blindfolded, with both hands. It is rare to be able to manipulate cards equally well with both hands — almost unheard of, in fact… very few on record as able to do this.

*This is a “Thank you” to Hickory for everything, as Sammy launches his Magic career onto a new level, in this next year!

*This is a Global Celebration, event streaming L-I-V-E — Everyone is invited! We have been and are harnessing the social and new media, as well as the traditional…

*If you miss the event, hi-def vid will be uploaded to YouTube — catch it any time: http://youtube.com/SammyCortino

Key Points in Sammy’s magic career:

At the age of 12, Sammy was inducted into the International Brotherhood of Magicians. Seigfried & Roy, Lance Burton and Terry Evanswood signed his application, and all have served to inspire Sammy’s performances. He has remained in contact with them.

Sammy is a member of London’s Magic Circle. He holds a Doctor of Magic degree, conferred by the International Magicians’ Society, the world’s largest magician’s society.

First stage show at Hickory Community Theatre at age 14…

Broyhill Civic Center Grand Illusion Show in ’06

Hayes Performing Arts Center ’07

Appalachian State University show in ’08

Sammy has been actively involved Frye Regional Medical Center’s Charlie’s Chaplains Hospital Creative Arts Ministry since 1997, performing simple tricks to brighten the patients’ days and empowering them by having them participate (as possible) in the performance. He serves as Assistant Coordinator of the ministry, since 2004: http://CharliesChaplains.blogspot.com
