Ideas that Don't Suck

15 replies
Hey everyone -- I just finished my first FREE ebook (and it looks pretty spiffy, I might add).

I would love it for you all to give me some CONSTRUCTIVE criticism on it if you get the chance to read over it. It's TOTALLY free and I don't even ask you to sign up for a mailing list (yet!).

You can grab a copy at www.nickthacker.com/free-stuff

Read it, send it to your list, whatever, and PLEASE let me know what you think!

Thanks,
Nick

    Tina, thanks for the kind words!

    I agree that most "reports" I've read, while admittedly aren't focused on SPECIFICALLY idea generation, leave out this very critical facet.

    It's certainly one thing to "make a profit" with any business, but quite another altogether to really make it a "business"--this REQUIRES a certain degree of scalability.

    I hope you will be generous enough to read my other "reports," hopefully coming out soon as well!

    Thanks,
    Nick

    Hey everyone, just an update: I've noticed quite a few people have downloaded the ebook, I was curious if there were any out there who were able to get something from it?

    I had a few emails in response to it, so I think I did alright with my first try at ebook-writing...

    Let me know!

    I just finished reading your ebook.
    I like the lay-out and design.
    But I dont know where your going with this, Who is your ideal prospect, What keeps him up at night ? Are you addressing that in your book. If your looking to convert people to use your services you need to drum up more pain and address it. Just my two cents worth.

    Beautiful graphics, nice layout and design of the ebook, I love your style!
    The content is a little light, but for a free ebook, I think it's ok.

    Hey all,

    Thanks for the read and the good advice and kind words!

    Yes, it is intended to be part of a larger work--I'm working on incorporating these ideas into my book coming out in two months (hopefully) on building a successful business project in 30 days. This ebook is basically the first two/three "days" of the larger book.

    Glad to hear you all liked the design and style, and I'm glad the writing wasn't too bad for most of you! I'm new to this "writing" thing, but I'm getting the hang of it!

    Thanks,
    Nick

        Thanks for the free ebook.
        The design and graphics are great.
        I love the grocery mapper idea!
        I liked how you stated to ask ourself the questions about starting
        a business. It's in the questions that we usually see more clearly.
        I am waiting to read the "rest of the story"
        Let us know when your other book is done.
        Look forward to reading it.

        Thanks again

          Willow77, thanks for the words and I'm glad you liked the book!

          I may be on to something with the GroceryMapper.com idea; a mentor of mine wants me to meet some of his investor friends and chat it up for a bit!

          Anyway, the new book, Building Viral, is FINISHED! You can grab a copy over at my blog at www.NickThacker.com, and let me know what you think (it's even shorter, so it shouldn't take too long...)!

          As always, it's also FREE FREE FREE, and I won't ask for a signup or anything else of that nature!

          Hope to hear from you soon,
          Nick

    It would be great to hear what you all thought of the book--I'd like to add some testimonials later. Any takers?
