Would You Sell Your Book for $1.50?

Writers are making millions of dollars by selling their books on Amazon Kindle for just 99 cents.

So noted marketing and publishing expert Kathleen Gage decided to experiment with doing so too.

And it worked! So now I am conducting my own experiment - by selling my ebook, Shaking the Money Tree, for just $1.50.

But this offer is only good until Monday the 15th of August. So hurry! Click here to download Shaking the Money Tree from Amazon Kindle now. (Otherwise, it's just $5.)

Of course, Shaking the Money Tree is worth much more than $1.50 to you. It could transform your whole financial life.
