Dear Friends,

This issue is dedicated to a number of free. services that I've found for you. Sometimes free. means worthless. But not for the resources I share below.

Alexander Pope said, "Do good by stealth, and blush to find it fame. "I've found in my clients and in the many people I've met in my life that the people with pure intentions, who are detached from the outcome, typically get the best results. One of my dear clients and friends Ann Keeler Evans and her friend Jennifer June are great examples.

I shared a delicious Vietnamese, Laotian and Lue meal with Ann Keeler Evans, who calls herself a "spiritual circuit rider for today's ecumenical world." If you're planning a wedding, funeral, or any other ritual she's your gal. Her tag line is, "A Fabulous Wedding Ceremony Can Move You from "I Do!" To Happily and Healthily Ever After." http://annkeelerevans.org/weddings/index.php

Over delicious fried rice ball salad we laughed and talked and ate with our fingers. Jennifer June, Ann's close friend and an expert in cowboy boots, regaled us with tales from cowboy land. Who knew you could choose in advance to have a male or female alligator for the skin of your boots?

What I adore about both of these gals is that they love what they do. They're totally devoted to their craft and mission. Jen has a site dedicated to storytelling and cowboy boots http://www.dimlights.com and has written a beautiful book called, "Cowboy Boots: The art & sole." Even if you never wanted a pair of cowboy boots you should still check out her site and book as the lore and boots are gorgeous poetry.

Ann is enmeshed in her community singing to her mother and the other elders in the old people's home, leading them through oldies that they all know by heart. This is the essence of a good life, which translates into good PR karma.

I'd like to start a regular feature of great free stuff and I'd like your help. You'll get good karma points and good PR exposure as well.

If you have a product or service related to PR, promotion, media interviews, tips on getting attention in the media, media coaching etc. that you're giving away, please send it on for my review and I will post the ones I consider of value in the next few issues, and as ongoing if possible.

No articles please. Just free products & services and only related to PR and marketing, not general self help.

Please note that I can only respond to the ones I'm going to use and thank all of you in advance for sending them.

Warmly,

Susan

P.S. Get good Karma points by going to:
http://www.thebreastcancersite.com.  From there you can click to give a woman a mammogram, save the rainforest, feed the starving, help a pet, and more. Takes less than a minute of your time to give every day by clicking on all the options. You can feel rich without spending a penny!

Media Leads for FREE

http://www.helpareporter.com/  This service works like Profnet and PR leads--except you don't have to pay! Of course the leads are not targeted to your areas of interest or expertise, but so what. Reporters on deadline send in requests for experts who can help them with their stories. The same rules of appropriate behavior apply here. (Please read them before replying to any leads or you'll make everyone involved really mad and spoil the system).

Now you all know that I think that PR Leads http://bit.ly/bNbMZb is the best deal on the planet. And I highly suggest that you join both for maximum benefit.

BTW, I love that this guy (Peter Shankman) created helpareporter.com for good karma. He's a skydiver living life on the fly and a real hoot.

Wide open blue skies back at you Peter!

Joan Stewart's Newsletter

If you're making publicity a priority and you're not on Joan's list, you're going yourself a disservice. Joan's advice is always on the cutting edge (as a former reporter she's up on all the current news & trends) from writing a press release that works to using video to increase your website traffic, sales, and visibility for TV and radio producers. She's got a terrific teleseminar series with expert guests on all aspects of PR on and off the Internet. Be sure to check out the ones she's already done is there is a goldmine there.

Marcia Yudkin's Newsletter

This is another newsletter that is always packed with sage advice from how to pitch a reporter to how to make best use of your blog. Her book was my first publicity bible "6 Steps to Free Publicity: For Corporate Publicists or Solo Professionals, Including... Publishers, Consultants, Conference Planners, Politicians, Inventors" and I highly recommend it as it's still the best book on the market. http://bit.ly/crg3SV
