It’s Thanksgiving in Canada, so it’s time to give thanks. It’s also my birthday. That’s why I’m the one who’s going to give you a gift (there’s only one condition, so read on).

I want to give thanks to all my loyal subscribers and readers. But there’s another perfectly good and more important reason.

I need to make some room!

You see, I have 3,000 copies of one of my books in storage, and I need to get rid of them. Fast! So I’m fully prepared to give them away. For free. Let me give you some background first…

You see, last year I quietly released my new book on Amazon.com, entitled Million Dollar Marketing Secrets. In it, I was joined by 21 other fantastic marketers, consultants, speakers and business-builders.

(Other top copywriters have also contributed to this amazing book, including Ray Edwards, Clayton Makepeace, JP Maroney, Jason Moffatt, Shaune Clark, John Gilvary, Marc Goldman, Ryan Healy, Alan Forrest Smith, and many others.)

And, together we jam-packed this book with hard-hitting, actionable information on how to grow a business with marketing that really works.

No theory. Stuff that’s proven.

(And with today’s sluggish and uncertain economic times, this incredible book is more powerful — and more potent — than ever!)

Below are the pictures of the front and back covers, and I’ve also included a chapter table of contents further down this blog post. Also, you can see a picture of how my office corner looks like — the boxes on the right hold about 3,000 copies!

      

(Click on these pictures to enlarge.)

Problem is, while the book is fulfilled by a fulfillment house, as an author I have boxes of this book (about 3,000 copies) in storage for my own marketing purposes. I was initially planning on selling them at the back of the room at seminars.

I could have — and should have — tried to sell them online. But with my main business requiring so much of my focus and attention with my wife Sylvie Fortin these days, I simply didn’t have the chance.

So here’s what I’m prepared to do to make it really worth your while — and to help me deplete my stock so we can make room in our office.

I’m also going to sweeten the pot by making you a special offer!

1. First, join Copy Doctor today at a massive discount.

I’m prepared to give the same $300 discount I gave during my 10th anniversary special last year off the lifetime membership fee, which is normally $697. Yup, that means a lifetime subscription to Copy Doctor membership site for ONLY $397.

There are no other fees. No recurring payments. No hidden charges.

All you need to do is, when you checkout, use coupon code: 2126F.

That’s two-one-two-six-F. You’ll find the coupon field at the bottom of the order page. Once processed, the $300 will be automatically applied when you checkout.

But here’s something extra…

2. When you fill-in your Copy Doctor account details as you check out, make sure to add your postal address details on the order page. That way, I can mail you a hard copy of this book, Million Dollar Marketing Secrets, right away.

So not only will you get access to over 60 hours of training video and copywriting critiques from me, you will also get a copy of this stunning book with 22 top marketers sharing their best marketing secrets.

Again, it’s filled with tons of tips and tricks to boost your marketing, especially in the current economic climate. If you think you’ve been hit hard by threats of the recent economic downturn, then this book is perfect for you.
