Video Testimonial Request


I will have a request for you, but first, let me share the results of the Gingerbread House poll. My oldest daughter, who happens to be the only daughter who reads my newsletter, stole the crown from me. Congratz, Grinchy.

Down to business. I've been improving my FB ads, and your feedback from the last newsletter helped. In particular, this poll:

The Red and Grundle pic was not doing well on FB, so, trusting that you folks know what you like better than FB knows what you like, I created new ad sets. They haven't run long enough for me to have sufficient data, but it looks like there might be a winner amongst them. In particular, this one:

So, the request: I want to try adding video testimonials to the mix of ads. I'm looking for a few folks willing to record 10-20s videos recommending either The Guardian League or Mother of Trees. (I don't think ads for Thaumatropic Roots make sense until I've completed the series). For some of you, this is no different from what you do for IG already. I can put your handle in the text if you want, but I can't link it (because the ad will be linking to the amazon book page). But I'll be spending money on the ads, so consider it some low-key free advertising for you (if that floats your boat). Since this is my first venture into video, I don't have any specifications. It's just a clumsy stumbling step forward for me. :)

If you're willing to create a video testimonial, just reach out to me through this email.

Went with my wife and oldest daughter to college orientation in Arkansas. What a beautiful place! I'm not exactly the most sporty guy in the world (my school didn't offer quidditch), so I never really learned my own school's fight song, and now I have to learn another? But it was fun, and it's great to see my daughter so excited. (I mean, sure, she's excited that she's leaving us, so grain of salt and all that.) Another interesting bit—I’m leave for England the day this is going out. For...

Life is incredibly busy, but, generally speaking, it's also a lot of fun. With three teenage daughters, and now four cars, we've always got something in the shop, always have kids darting in and out of the house, always have exasperating moments of schedule conflicts. But those kids darting about are fun and funny, and the schedule conflicts are because everyone has their interesting stuffs. So yeah, bedlam, but I'm sure I'll miss it. And my wife and I still manage to sneak away for date...
