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.
