Fun with Marketing (Part 1)
By Lisa Buffaloe
What if a work of childhood fiction was
in reality a true-life story?
Non-Fiction Marketing Plan for
The Three Little Pigs
Dear Publisher,
My brothers and I would like to submit a proposal to your fine
establishment. We have Twitter followers and Facebook friends who will happily
squeal with delight when our book is published.
We commit to write
articles and speak on…
The realities of
life as a pig in a wolf world.
The importance of
proper home design.
The importance of
building a strong foundation – for your home and your piglets.
Learning
Karate and Judo to pork chop your opponents.
Business
techniques in surviving the attempts at a hostile takeover.
Our marketing
products would include approaching companies similar to the ones below…
Wolf brand chili
Home builders and
home design
Architecture
firms
Brick companies
Chimney design
Security systems
Karate and Judo
facilities
We are sure this book will spread like swine flu (in a good way,
of course).We would be happy as pigs in the mud in the sunshine if you would
consider our work.
We
await your response with oinkticipation,
The
Pigs
How
would you market for the pigs?
