A user-friendly, easy-to-follow guide, October 10, 2008
This review is from: You Can Be Famous: Insider Secrets to Getting Free Publicity (Paperback)
You Can Be Famous! Insider Secrets to Getting Free Publicity is a practical, no-nonsense guide for anyone in search of publicity, whether an author trying to get the word out for their book, an employee seeking to promote their company, an aspiring actor or actress trying to get their name out there, or anyone else yearning to make a well-known name for themselves. Chapters discuss the positive benefits and negative consequences of fame, how to get on a journalists' good side (be aware that most journalists are under deadline pressure, so always be respectful of their time - be concise, polite, keep your appointments, and ask their permission to make a follow-up call one or two weeks later), the right way to pitch oneself, how to prepare for an interview, how to dress in a manner that's camera-friendly, and much more. Other matters such as harnessing the Internet to its maximum potential, creating a quality publicity release, or holding a charity event to garner a buzz are also discussed. A user-friendly, easy-to-follow guide, enthusiastically recommended for anyone seeking fame, especially if seeking to promote their artistic creation or business product.

Attracting Celebrity Status - The Many Faces of Fame, September 27, 2008
This review is from: You Can Be Famous: Insider Secrets to Getting Free Publicity (Paperback)
"You can be famous!" is a book designed to teach people how to get free publicity. This is a book for entrepreneurs, organizational leaders and members, or for individuals. Danek S. Kaus provides the reader with "Insider Secrets to Getting Free Publicity."
The twelve powerful chapters are packed with keys to gain fame, creating your own media tool kit, how to talk like a journalist, seeing your name in print, and how to get on radio and TV talk shows. Kaus has included sample press releases, FAQ's, sample query letters, and sample headlines for proposed articles.
The format of the book is user friendly. I found the: "Key Points to Remember," the suggested "Action Steps," and the "In the Next Chapter, You Will Learn" particularly practical and personally challenging.
Kaus inspires, motivates, and communicates in a fresh tight writing style that is entertaining and informative. I plan to reread, assimilate and put into action the suggested steps for getting free publicity outlined in the book.
