Today’s episode is with Mr. Brad Lomenick, czar of the Catalyst empire (at least that’s what he prefers I call him).

78 different promotions. 78 names in the pot. Drum roll please…
Jeff Crain.
FYI – Jeff is the only one who changed his outgoing voicemail message to an Everyday Absurdities book promotion. That’s dedication. Jeff, let me know how I can get your $100 bill to you. And thanks again everyone for being so willing to promote my new book.

I’ve been getting some serious promo love the past few days. Seriously, I’m humbled by all the really kind things people are saying about the book. Of course, most of them were probably motivated by the $100 bill I’m giving away tomorrow, but I’m still holding out hope that a couple of them were heartfelt.
In case you missed them, here are what some of my friends wrote about the book on their sites. Exciting, humbling stuff.
Sorry if I’ve left anyone off this list. Just wanted all of you to know how incredibly blessed I feel to have so many people behind this project. Thanks so much for all the posts, tweets, updates, messages, emails, etc!
Oh, and just a reminder: The $100 bill contest is over at the end of the day today. And there are 5 days left to get the book at the $8.99 price. Monday it goes all the way up to $11.99. Just use promo code H5J74D59 at checkout.

I had walking pneumonia last week. I always thought that was just a milder form of pneumonia where you could just, you know, walk around like a perfectly healthy person. My assumptions were wrong. I was flat on my sweaty back for way to long. Here’s how I maintained my sanity.
1. Read Trust Agents
2. Watched E! Oscar coverage. Floated in and out of Ryan Seacrest career jealousy the entire time.
3. Edited a promo video for my book. This proves why Tripp edits all our videos.
4. Spit into a cup on the nightstand. That cup now tops the list of dirtiest places on planet. It has since been burned.
5. Cleaned out my address book, in case I stumble into another game of Phone Roulette.
6. Slept. Sweat. Changed Shirts. Slept some more.
7. Read my book. Found a few typos. Cried about the typos.*
8. Attended a Catalyst creative meeting and got Tripp sick (Thursday, before I went to the doctor and knew what was up). Sorry Tripp.
9. Rearranged my iPhone apps. Pretty happy about the current arrangement.
10. Got book page ready for yesterday’s release.
11. Watched ninety-two crime shows. If I were getting married soon, I’d ask Elliot Stabler to be a groomsman.
12. Laid on my driveway.
13. Watched Amy cut the grass. Reason #482 that I love her.
Two quick things:
1. Our dog video is being featured on CollegeHumor.com today.
2. If you missed yesterday, I’m giving away $100 in the easiest contest of all time. Click here or scroll down.
*For the record, the typos were created after Lacey edited it, so they were completely my fault.

Today is the big day. My book is now available! If you’re one of the people that are already planning on buying it, click here to do so. It’s only $8.99 this week. Enter promo code H5J74D59 at checkout.
If you’re one of the people who need a bit more persuasion, click here for my best sales pitch. But make sure you come back to this page.
Now, want to win $100 cash?
Being that this is a self-publishing effort, I need some serious help promoting it. Seriously. I’ve tried to be really selective over the course of this blog about what I ask from you, but nothing has been more important to me than this.
So, here’s what I’m going to do. I’m going to list 15 different ways you can help me promote it, and all you have to do is tell me which ones you did in the comments section. Sure, you can just do one or two, but the more you do, the more times your name is put in the hat, and the better your chances of winning the 100 bones.* I’ll keep the contest open until the end of the day Wednesday.
Here are the 15 ways you can help
1. Tweet “Go check out @tylerstanton’s new book, Everyday Absurdities. It’s only $8.99 this week – promo code H5J74D59. http://bit.ly/cnvZfH” to all your Twitter followers.
2. Put that same message as your Facebook status update (or MySpace, LinkedIn, etc)
3. Send a brief email to your entire email address book telling people to head over to http://www.tylerstanton.com/book to, at the very least, watch the book promo video. Then encourage them to purchase a multi-tool for themselves.
4. Go to Walmart, pick up a phone, and #-9-6 your best sales pitch to the entire store. If you don’t know what that is, click here.
5. Blog about it. Must include the promo video and a link to purchase it (http://www.tylerstanton.com/book)
6. Become a fan of “Everyday Absurdities – The World’s Most Versatile Book!” on Facebook (click here) and invite all your FB friends to do so as well.
7. Promote the “Everyday Absurdities – The World’s Most Versatile Book!” page on your own Facebook profile with an ad (click here).
8. Change your voicemail away message to: “I’m not answering my phone right now because I’m engrossed in Tyler Stanton’s new book, Everyday Absurdities. If you want to leave a message, that’s fine, but I’m mainly concerned with you heading over to tylerstanton.com/book and buying it so we can laugh together. Have a nice day.”
9. Promote it to an entire classroom or office full of people.
10. Buy two and give one to a friend (or a stranger).
11. Make your own promotional video and upload it.
12. Order a copy for one of your famous friends and/or a publisher you know (I’ll reimburse you).
13. Create and wear a t-shirt with “tylerstanton.com/book” across the front and back.
14. Pinky-swear to me that you’ll write a glowing Amazon review (not possible yet).
15. Promote it on your site with one of these lovely 125×125 ads.
Again, I’d LOVE your help. As a matter of fact, I’m begging. The more of these you do, the better your chances. Just let me know in the comments section which ones and I’ll announce a winner on Thursday. Thanks so much!!
*If 16 people only do one thing, and you do all 14, you have a 14-out-of-30 chance of winning. Make sense? One entry per one promotion you do.
