Am I crazy or what?

Hi Tamara,
I thought you might be interested in a company called Give to Get Marketing http://www.givetogetmarketing.com. They explain that you can (and should) give in order to get the results you want. But instead of giving the whole book away and hope that people will pay (which can definately work) you can also try other things such as newsletters and so on. I'm not associated with them, I just like their message.

Good luck.
