Kind request with a kiss gift from me

Dear Kiss business too (2) reader.

Have I told you lately how much I appreciate to see the feedburner counter showing an average of around 75 - 80 (edited 13.01.09: 105-110) readers ? Daily! For a simple small business owner who ponders about being in business on this 'dynamic website' (aka blog) it is an astonishing but welcome sight. I know most of you have added the feed of this blog to their blogreader, a small minority receive email notifications as soon as I publish a new pondering.

I'm a great fan a AWeber (aff) and I'm in the process of adding dynamic website (blog) number 7 to my list. It's still hidden from the cyber-world, but hopefully I can reveal all in the very near future. It will cover combinations of experts, be it persons or software and some online products (combining experts too) I'm creating at the very moment. AWeber will feature there prominently.

The AWeber webform on the top right corner of this blog allows you to receive blog-alerts by email. Simple and straight forward. Fill in your name and email address and AWeber does the rest. Now, my request to you, my dear Kiss 2 blog reader, is to change the way you notice a new business pondering has appeared on this blog. Can I very kindly ask to pop in your name and email address in that little box?

As 'reward' or appreciation for doing so I will gift you the E-book version of my debut business novel

"The Kiss Business - the Keep It Simple Sweetheart principle in business"
Normal price of this E-book £ 6.95 - subscribe to my blog-alerts and it's yours for free.

Why do I gift you this? It took me 3 months to write; two months of kind attention from my friend Peter to change the worst double Dutch phrases in proper English; I'm darn proud of it too - and so is my mother. It tells you (part fiction, part fact) about our trials and tribulation when starting out as Wood You Like - 5 years ago!, our ups and downs, the help and advice we received from various kind and very generous persons.

When I wrote it I knew it would never be a 'best-seller' but I just had to write it at that specific moment in time. We were, slowly, succeeding in what we had set out to do. And I know/feel that blog number 7 is what I need to do now at this specific moment in time. Blogs, webmarketing have become not only a great hobby of me, it is slowly turning into a second career. If you subscribe to the Kiss 2 blog-alerts I will keep you posted on blog number 7, its contents and products and will be able to offer you - if you like of course - special pre-views of things to come.

And besides, a good read is never lost ;-) This is what some of my novel readers say about it:
Richard Calderwood (bizRichard - who coincidently wrote the foreword in my novel)
"The rough road from 'start-up' to successful business, this debut business novel by Karin Hermans is a good read. Her philosophy of keeping things simple certainly works"

Ed Rivis - author of the Ultimate Web Marketing Strategy:
"Excellent and highly original business book"

My E-book (worth £ 6.95) for your name and email address - a fair trade? I hope you'll see it like that - and I promise never to use your submitted details for any other purpose than I've explained above.
