Bob and I were excited to get an email from our publisher last night informing us that "Digital Engagement" had been chosen as a pick of the week. Here's a copy of the text from the email from getAbstract:

Subject: Digital Engagement - Abstract of the Week

Andy Sernovitz has an excellent suggestion about asking people to promote themselves instead of you on his blog at:

Ask people to promote themselves instead of you

Instead of asking a blogger to write about you -- ask them to promote themselves. We all love to talk about ourselves!

I recently reconnected with an old friend on Facebook, like many of you have, I'm sure. As we went through the process of catching one another up on things, I learned that she had a shop in her city and was just trying to get a website up, start blogging, etc., to publicize events at her shop. Since she knew that I had just released "Digital Engagement," she started asking me for advice.
