Newsletter - May 5th, 2008

As your probably aware, I don’t send these out very often, so when I do, I usually have quite a bit of important news to talk about, and here are the highlights of what’s been going on at Auctionwally.com

I’ve finally published my new eBook, “Selling Your Valuables in Tough Times” The subject of people having to liquidate personal items lately has been creating quite a buzz in the marketplace in the past few days. I foresaw this trend quite a while ago, as many of you know, and have been working on this eBook for a few months now. It’s my sincere wish that it will help many people that have to go through this difficult process.

If your a fan of the site, and you don’t have a use for the eBook right now, I’d appreciate your telling a friend about it.

This is an important eBook with information for those that people that need it the most. There as so many right now selling their family items and valuables for very short money because they are desperate. This book was written to help people who are forced to sell, get the HIGHEST PRICES for their items in the quickest ways possible, and to help them avoid being taken advantage of.

Episode 16 of The Auctionwally Show was just published, it’s a companion piece to my new eBook and the show focuses on tips and advice to help people who are are having to liquidate personal items. It covers advice for everyone from newbies to pros. Click here to listen to that episode.
I’m excited to have just become a writer at The Examiner.com as their online auction and antiques expert! The Examiner is an online National Online Newspaper that’s been about for quite a while. The Examiner has publications in all of the Major US cities. This is where the future of Newspapers is going and I’m happy to be part of such an organization. I sincerely hope that some of you will visit my blog there and leave a comment or question.

I’m scheduled to do a large on site Antiques Auction in Central MA of the contents of an 1830s farm house on May 24th. More details about that will be on the website as they develop.

I’m excited to have as an upcoming guest Daryle Lambert , an author, blogger and antiques expert of many years. He’s a delightful personality with tons of knowledge. This show is scheduled for Monday evening May 12, 8pm eastern time on Blogtalkradio. Anyone can call into the show with questions for Daryle or myself. I’ll post a reminder and the phone number as we get closer to the date.

I’d also like to remind everyone that they can find the show at http://auctionwally.libsyn.com, subscribe to it on iTunes, find it on the Blubrry Podcast network and of course, on my website.

I want to announce that I’m having a contest and it will go like this. I have two ratings for The Auctionwally Show on iTunes so far. For the next 3 people who go to iTunes and rate the show, I’ll send out a free download of my new eBook, “How to Sell Your Valuables in Tough Times”. Simply go to iTunes, give the show an honest rating and then send me an email verification you’ve done so and I’ll send you a free copy of the eBook. Now, no matter whether the rating is favorable, or unfavorable, I want to know what you think of the show, so just by being one of the next 3 people to rate me on iTunes, you’ll win the book.

And last but not at all the least that I’d like to tell you about is a new Podcast Transcription feature I have for the Auctionwally Show. I’m now having the Show transcribed by the Transcriptlibrary.com. This is a wonderful service for the Deaf community or anyone else that has a use for the full text transcription of a podcast.

I’ve had 4 of my shows transcribed so far and since then my Google Page Rank has jumped from a 2 to a 4! I can’t swear it’s because of these transcripts, but they are very rich in content with many relevant keywords, so I’m sure I’m getting quite a bit of Google Juice from them. I have plans to have all of the archived and future shows transcribed.

Thanks so much for reading, I hope you’ll stop by the site soon.
