So despite the nerves and the massive jam at Mid Valley today, I managed to reach MPH exactly on time for my author’s talk. This is my first time giving a talk in such an open, public place.
To be quite honest I wasn’t sure what to expect. Other authors have told me stories where only 2-3 people attended their talks. Some told me stories of kids jumping and running around them while they were introducing their books.
For me though, it all went pretty well.
I really appreciate the MPH staff for setting up a nice, cozy spot away from all the hustle and bustle of shoppers outside. In fact the set-up was pretty good, and by the time I arrived most of the seats were taken.
I talked mostly about the book and myself, careful not to scare my audience off by getting into the nitty-gritty on Internet marketing. Hopefully, for the most part, they understood what I was saying. And as the talk proceeded, more and more people started to gather around to listen in. About 9 people bought The New Millionaires from that session, which is great for a first-timer like me.
For all those who attended the talk, thank you. Special thanks to Sunny and Jessica for their support, and helping me take these wonderful pictures.
Here’s a very short video:
Gobala, congratulations! I managed to flip through your book when I saw it in MPH a few weeks ago. Good overview of the industry and I was intrigued by the way you hit the ground running via the Warrior forums. Cheers to great success!
Hi Gobala,
Congratulation on launching the book! I trust that it will be selling well.
I’ve finished reading the book that autographed by you during our cyberwang gathering last year. Suffice to say that it was fresh ideas and benefited me a lot.
Thanks,
Haron.
Gobala, your book was awesome! It really helps those who are interesting in doing online business. I 100percent recommend this book to my business friends. Keep on your good work and hope to read your second IM Book.
