Next book will be on "Real Estate"

Well you have to keep the ball rolling......... it really is so much fun.

This is what I am currently focused on:

- Marketing my first online book "Only in Mexico, You Say?" (It is such a pleasure to watch the book sales grow, and have more and more people sign up for my newsletter!) I am doing this through online forums, article writing, linking to other websites, having others promote my book for commission, etc. Just for fun search Google by typing in Suzanne Marie Bandick or Suzanne Bandick - the # of links connected to my name is growing - and I've only just begun!

- Gathering information to write my next book for foreigners buying real estate in Mexico.

- The process of getting my first book available in paperback.

By this time next year - my goal is to have 3 books both online and in print. I also want to put together a game on living in Mexico and do audios of some of my books and have some videos on my site or on Youtube.

Letting the adventure continue........but still making time for the beach, Suzanne

PS. Order my current book now before they sell out!

This gets better every day!

I continue to work on the marketing of my eBook every day. Every day I manage to at least do a couple of things to market my book and put the word out; and every day I have something cool happen. I make a contact, I get a link, I get an article published, I have someone say something great about my site or my book ....... and I feel great!

Last week I was invited to contribute to the website www.mexpat.com, which has an eclectic collection of writings on Mexico. I am writing my thoughts ( a different blog) on living in Mexico. With every blog I write I get to advertise my site and my book - it is win/win for both of us. So if you would like to read even more ramblings from yours truely on life in Mexico - check it out.
By the way, how did he find me? A forum I posted on.

I am even making sales! Imagine that! A really neat thing is that I am now getting sales from people I don't even know. That means my marketing must be starting to work. That gives one the motivation to continue so more cool things will happen.

Marketing one step at a time.

Choosing to make every day great. Suzanne.

P.S. I am now looking for stories of foreigners who have bought real estate in Mexico for my next book. Just send me an e-mail through my website www.SuzanneMarieBandick.com
