Blame it on Joe Vitale. It’s his fault (how’s that for not accepting responsibility for your actions?).
I’ve been listening to a series of CDs that Joe Vitale did (from his Hypnotic Marketing Fusion collection) while I drive back and forth to my job. He was talking with Yanik Silver about copywriting on a CD that I listened to today.
They kept talking about an ebook that Joe had gotten the rights to sell in ebook format. The book, “Sales Letters That Sell” by Christian Godefroy, was important enough to Joe that he put his hard-to-find hard copy on the seat beside him (along with only two other books) when he moved a while ago from Houston to his then-current home (which may still be his home; I don’t know for sure).
Of course, with Mr. Hypnotic Writing - Speaking - Interviewing teasing me the whole time, telling me how great this just-released ebook is, I simply *HAD* to have a copy.
Except, by my accounting and research, that interview was done six years ago. And that ebook was being distributed by Aesop Marketing — the business Mark Joyner sold a few years back. And the website simply redirects me to some page that talks about a traffic generation product that my good friend Willie Crawford tested and apparently liked quite well.
Are we a close-knit market — or what? I went from trying to find a copy of an ebook that’s no longer being sold to a good friend in just a couple of steps!
Anyway, the ebook has been taken off the market and the only hard copy I could find was for sale on Amazon.co.uk for about 600 pounds. Ouch.
Never try to stop a persistent researcher — and never try to stop somebody who knows what they want (hmmm… “Law of Attraction”… who was that nice guy of Italian descent that told me about that, anyway?). I found the entire book — PLUS the bonus that Joe Vitale talked about in that interview six years ago — online. Somewhere. Publicly accessible. For free. I won’t say where, but I now have an ebook to read.
So to whomever now owns the ebook rights to that product (I don’t know if it’s Joe Vitale or Christian Godefroy or Somebody Else), please contact me and let me know how much I need to PayPal to you. I’m known for respecting intellectual property rights and I need to pay you (and if I can’t afford your price I promise to delete it). I’ll even let you know where I found the ebook (no, nobody is selling it illegally — at least that I was able to find).
For the rest of you, I’d love to give or sell you a copy, but it isn’t mine to give away. Hopefully the owner of those rights will once again offer this ebook for sale online so that all of us can benefit from itl. And I’d be glad to get involved in selling it if at all possible.
Pretty please — please make it available again. Thanks.
Thanks for listening,
Tom
