According to marketing guru Dan Kennedy, "What others say about you and your product, service, or business is at least 1000% more convincing than what you say, even if you are 1000% more eloquent." Why? Simply put, it’s because we believe other customers over marketing-speak.  

 

So, ever wonder what a celebrity endorsement might do to persuade customers that your business is better than the competition or what an autographed doodad might sell for in a silent auction you’re hosting for a worthy cause? The problem is that most of us can’t pick up the phone and call Oprah’s agent or Tom Clancy’s publicist to find out.  

 

Now you can! I came across www.contactanycelebrity.com recently and wanted to pass this along. Yes, I was skeptical but the CNN endorsement on the home page and what looks like over a hundred testimonials quickly convinced me this is legit. See how it works J
