Street Smart Internet Marketing Book Giveaway
Posted on 07. Sep, 2007 by Adam in Entrepreneurship
After the success of the blogLOUDER competition (the reviews of which will be posted very shortly), I’ve decided to run another giveaway. Recently, Christine – the Project Manager for Justin Michie – contacted me regarding a new book written by Justin called Street Smart Internet Marketing.
At first, I was very sceptical as usual with this type of eBook again promising to make you rich overnight. The long ad copy and sales page really does put you off, although having one really is necessary in order for you to sell your digital product.
Christine was very polite and helpful and sent me a free copy of the book via PDF and by mail – and upon arrival on both forms of text, I was very much stunned at the sheer quality and professionalism that had gone into the book’s creation and content. With extremely in-depth articles about creating your site, marketing your product, selling your product, Search Engine Optimization, Website Promotion and Affiliate Marketing all piled into 300 odd pages – this book astonished me and has actually taught me quite a bit about topics I didn’t know about.
Instead of doing a full-on review, I wanted to help Christine to drum up some feedback and support for the book by holding another competition. Justin kindly offered to giveaway 3 Street Smart Internet Marketing books to 3 lucky readers of Blogtrepreneur.
To enter, all you have to do is complete the following sentence through a comment on this post.
You know you’re an internet marketer when…
Here’s a sample answer:
…you pay your kids allowance through paypal.
That’s it! Feel free to be as humourous or as serious as you want. On Sunday, Christine and Justin will pick their personal favourite answer, and the winner will receive the book as a PDF or in the real form – it’s up to them. Christine will mail you out a book, no matter where in the world you live.
On top of this, 2 random entries will win a book each via PDF or a real copy.
This is a really awesome prize and will no doubt help your internet marketing efforts. Be sure to enter straightaway to be in with a chance of winning! Thanks again to Christine and Justin Michie for this excellent giveaway.

You know you’re an Internet Marketer when you…
- Wake up at 3AM ****ing yourself – worrying you forgot to cloak your affiliate links in yoru latest e-mail broadcast.
- When you get blisters on the palm of your hand, having spent 72 consecutive hours replying to members of your list, explaining that they signed up and you’re NOT spamming them.
- When you have 92,387 MySpace friends, of which perhaps 3 you’ve met in person.
- When you consider naming your first born after an industry expert, in the hope of scoring that elusive joint-venture with him.
Damn… My ever-so-(not-so)-creative mind is blank. ;) Wish me luck bretherin buddy!

Ok, so I won this thing and got Justin Michie’s book. I consider myself pretty knowledgable about this stuff, but I was still able to fin some value in the book.
Looking past the typos and a few grammatical errors – the book is pretty good and has some valuable information in it. So, I give it a thumbs up for what it is worth.
N o one asked my opinion, but since most of the books I get on the subject are crap – I thought it was worth mentioning.

Hey SmartyDad – thanks very much for leaving your feedback with us.
I’m glad you managed to read Justin’s book – and you’re right, even though the book is focused on newbie’s, there are still some good tips that a good internet marketer can pick up.
Excellent news, and I’m sure Justin will be very pleased with the feedback – hopefully I can drum up a few more competitions in the future, because it’s been a bit quiet around here!
