Tomorrow is all school, dentist, and more emails… youu hoo!
These days are increadibly busy, and while I feel like I continue to fall behind, I am accomplishing alot.
Got The Last Incarnation finally to iTunes today… finally as in less than 90 days from launch, but it feels like forever. Also got alot of material into iTunes from the bookstore as well.
It looks like the transition from Tunecore to CDBaby will probably take most of the year. It only makes sense to go ahead and let each album run it’s course before shifting it over, and some of the albums don’t renew until November, so there you go. I am curious if having them run through a different aggregator increases sales. One of the benefits of CD Baby I have seen so far is that they are far more active in keeping their store list up to date.
Amazon continues to humm right along, generating sales without interruption. Barnes and Noble also is having a great month, and I was hoping to see us break some sales recods for January- we have already, but there was a pretty aggressive one I still want- and I think I can get. I have rediculous 1400 emails piled up…
lots to edit on the video side, and I have to find 16 players for a board game I am hosting at a gaming tourney. should be interesting.
School, both classes are in full swing, not particularly fond of either class right now, I hope that changes soon.
Really not much happening here, except working hard on promotion and new products…more later.
Busy day today, but the results are slow…
Emails at 1080
More tomorrow…
Email count is 1,006, officially crisis mode…
Some group of spammers thought it was cool to send me product “Questions” about some BCM stuff- why do they even bother?
Great day otherwise, got January Newsletter Out the Door, will cover a bunch of Poetry stuff, and a laundry list tomorrow… would love to see a great bounce in stats tomorrow…
lots of book stuff to follow up on and lots of editing to do as well. Lots of nebulousness apparently…
Oh, I did send one story to editing today, and really kicked forward on a second, hoping to have 3 done by the end of the week… ok, bye..
Lots today…
emails at 843, really need to pay attention to that…
first pictures up at the Brick Cave Art Site
updates on Sharon Skinner’s Book, The Healer’s Legacy
New Facebook Page for The Klute
Ok sales news for The Last Incarnation
I posted about how important a good cover is for your book… and I posted a new Listening Room page…
Tomorrow, new podcast and webcast, very busy days indeed…
Off to see a bad Movie, but I wanted to document today’s activity. Contract for Sharon’s book signed, sealed and delivered… Art BCM site totally revamped and almost ready for content. very excited about that… lots of work to do in the next day or two on it, but it is looking MUCH better… 2012 is less about infrastructure, and all about content!
Email is at 769, haven’t pruned in too long…
Big night for the Audio site, did ALOT of infrastructure work to try and catch it up to the book site… Audio has been deteriorating fast because I haven’t been paying attention to it, so I wanted to really get back in the swing with it. I feel good about where I ended.
686 on the email today, did no purging.
Big Day tomorrow, delivering some flyers for J.A. Giunta’s reading on January 7th, having lunch with the awesome Sharon Skinner and will be doing more website updates, sending out an email newsletter for both Anthology and Brick cave Media. Got some shopping to do, and some decorating to finish.
Gotta finish a couple stories soon as well and get them out.
Email Count is 618
Not much to speak of here, just worked on the new format for the email newsletter, and that’s about it. Graphic Arts take awhile to get done, so while it seems unproductive, I am sure it will be a big improvement for readers.
That’s about it.. Oh, record day on the Book site, 37, highest number of unique visitors to date.
