Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: It’s a self-help-health book. Say that ten times.

Q: What is the book about?
A: It’s about enjoying the fun and intrigue of unraveling nature’s clues that fill you with awe, inspiration, and healing. This fascinating book combines ancient wisdom with modern research, and science with imagination. Connect to the wonder you felt as a child, and emulate how Nature wisely deals with change and adversity.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: I am a recovering “learning addict” who ultimately discovered that the answers to most of life’s questions are found in nature’s genius. I’m a nutritionist with a Ph.D. in naturopathy (alternative medicine), a master’s degree in psychology, a nutrition degree, and a LEED™ (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) accreditation. I combine all these fields to give you the dirt on nature.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: It’s really a one-of-a kind book. It’s not a nature book because most people think of nature books as photos of the forests, mountains, and sea. It’s entirely different from all other nature, and health books too, because it presents nature as your nurturer, health coach, and mentor, and yet it’s easy and fun to read.

We can take advice from motivational speakers who have been around maybe 50 years versus Nature who’s been around 4 billion years. It’s time we learn to listen to our mom—Mother Nature. Your “mother” really does know best!

Einstein said, “Look deep into nature and then you will understand everything better.” The more you know about nature, the more you’ll understand yourself and others. So after reading this book, you’ll see things in a whole new light.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: Losing touch with nature and contact with the earth can make you feel more stressed and depressed.  The EPA estimates that Americans spend about 90% of their day indoors.

University of Illinois research shows that children who were outdoors more exhibit a dramatic reduction in the symptoms of ADD. The average child recognizes more than a hundred corporate logos but can’t name ten types of plants.

Our bodies are designed to be in touch with nature. When people who are depressed garden and get their hands in dirt, their depression lessens.

My sincere wish is that Nature becomes your true friend and mentor, and that this book fills you with many “awe-ha” moments. Mother Nature’s profound wisdom is right outside your front door and is free!

The 24 Hour Champion: Discovering AND Living Your Priceless Life, By Darshan Gabriel Shanti

Posted by Dan Janal, Your Fearless PR LEADER

Pitch reporters with our up-to-date media databases:

Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: This book is for entrepreneurs, CEOs, salesman, soccer moms and students. It will serve anyone of any age from any background who knows there’s got to be more for his life than what they’re experiencing now. This book is for people who are sick and tired of being sick and tired, dissatisfied, unfulfilled and stuck in a perpetual rut. It’s for people who have fear running their life. It’s for people who are ready to let all of that go and who want to have the business and life success they see when they close their eyes.

Q: What is the book about?
A: Your life, your wealth, dreams, happiness, fulfillment and satisfaction and removing all of the beliefs, blocks and barriers that are stopping you from having whatever your heart desires. It’s about being released from the chains of your past and being free to live the life you’ve always wanted to live.  It will enable you to pull the weeds of fear and stagnation right by their roots so they don’t come back anymore. You will then be able to plant a brand new garden to grow whatever future you would like.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: Every single word, concept, exercise and idea in this book came from my real life experience. There is absolutely no theory in this book. There is no hype. There is no fluff. I’ve tried and successfully mastered everything in the book. I know it works without the shadow of a doubt and I stake my reputation on it.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: Most personal development books don’t work effectively. They are full of useless platitudes, tired, old concepts and boring ideas. They offer strategies and tactics, but never lead people to solving their problems. They motivate people, temporarily making them feel better, but that’s it. Motivation doesn’t last.

This book is not about motivation, it’s about transformation. It will help you get to the core beliefs that block you from experiencing joy, peace, fulfillment and freedom. And help you to change your own mind about who you are and what you believe is possible, both right now and in your future. Once you do that, your change is permanent.

In addition, it only deals with the issues at their core because when you deal with a problem at its core, it doesn’t come back anymore.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: Be prepared to do all the action steps and the exercises necessary. As you “grow” through the book, be prepared to see some amazing changes in your life. If you’re not willing to do that, you won’t experience the change in your life that you’re looking for.

THE 800-POUND GORILLA OF SALES: How To Dominate Your Market, By Bill Guertin  

Posted by Dan Janal, Your Fearless PR LEADER

Pitch reporters with our up-to-date media databases:

Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: Entrepreneurs, sales reps and managers, small business owners, home-based business owners, and those just plain interested in how the world works.

Q: What is the book about?
A: The book reveals the 12 attributes of “800-Pound Gorillas”, or the dominant players in any market who get the largest share of the business.  Whether you’re an individual looking to become a larger presence in your sales career, or a company that needs to find a different route to beat the competition, the stories and examples in the book will help you discover several ways to improve your status and success in the business jungle.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: My 25+ years in broadcast advertising sales, combined with the need to become a more dominant player as I went off to start my own company, gave me the desire to learn more about how others had become the 800-Pound Gorillas in their respective categories.

Through dozens of interviews, hours of research, and refining of the information, the 12 attributes of dominant players came to the surface.  The book has already helped many others to become a more dominant player in a wide variety of business categories.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: The book is different than others because it explores several business categories no one has written about in great detail.  We’ve all heard about Starbucks, Google, and Wal-Mart; who’s the dominant player in the school bus sales industry, and what can an individual learn from their success?  How about nursing homes for underprivileged people?  Promotional specialty products?  Travel Websites for hotel properties?  The sports ticket sales industry?  These are just a few of the categories that are highlighted and revealed in this book – stories you won’t find anywhere else.

Profileactics: A Guide For The Prevention Of Ill-Conceived Personal Ads, By Donna F. Ferber, LPC

Posted by Dan Janal, Your Fearless PR LEADER

Pitch reporters with our up-to-date media databases:

Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: Single Baby Boomers exploring the world of Internet dating.

Q: What is the book about?
A: Profileactics: A Guide for the Prevention of Ill-Conceived Personal Ads combines lessons in self-awareness and language with generous doses of wisdom and wit. The result is an invaluable tool for Baby Boomers exploring the world of Internet dating.

Hundreds of profile excerpts are used to demonstrate the often misguided efforts of Boomers looking for love. Some are hilarious, some sad and some are just strange, but all illustrate the power of words.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: I am a psychotherapist in private practice for 25 years in Connecticut.

My first book, From Ex-Wife to Exceptional Life: A Woman’s Journey through Divorce won an honorable mention award from the Independent Publishers Association. It has helped thousands of women recover from divorce and find joy in their new lives.

When they began dating again, their stories of internet dating became the inspiration for this book. Profileactics assists the reader in developing a more discerning eye, not only about what not to write but also about whom not to date.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: The book focuses on the importance of an impeccably written profile. Potential suitors have literally thousands of choices. Without a good first impression there will be more rejection than connection. The book is informative and the material is approachable, upbeat and well-organized. It is a fun read!

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: Profileactics will help single Baby Boomers craft a better profile and assist them in finding the love they want; it will challenge the reader to look more deeply into themselves—beyond childhood dreams and stereotypical expectations of gender and relationship. This self-reflection will result in a heightened self-awareness and a clearer picture of what they long for in a relationship.
