Hi everybody,



In just two weeks, we've signed up 42 speakers at
www.GreatGardenSpeakers.com and several more are in progress. Over the last few days we've had a glitch that just got fixed: the price to join is $5 per month, but on one of the enrollment screens, it was displaying as $30 per month. Quite a difference! So if you were thinking of signing up but got discouraged by the $30/month thing, please go back and take another look. Truly, it's only five bucks a month! What a deal. Go here to read more, and click the green Join Now button on the right if you'd like to sign 
up:  http://www.greatgardenspeakers.com/contactus.php
We've landed some really good media mentions--thanks to Billy Goodnick for 
kicking it off on the Fine Gardening blog:



http://www.finegardening.com/item/15505/great-garden-speakers-coming-to-your
-town
and there are several more good stories coming down the pipeline in national media. We'll share that news when it's all official-like. I have to say, one great benefit to starting this project with professional writers is that 
we all know how to connect with the media and get the word out!
If any of you are interested in doing a story in your newspaper column, on your blog, on your radio show, your local newsletter, or elsewhere, please 
shoot a note to info@greatgardenspeakers.com and we can get you press
releases and more.  I'm sure we all have garden club members among our
readers who would like to know about a new resource for finding speakers.
The response from groups & audiences has been very gratifying. Many of our speakers already have glowing "audience reviews" posted by people who have seen them speak, and speakers are already getting queries from groups who would like to book them. We also have several dozen garden clubs, botanical gardens, and garden show organizers already signed up for our email list, which will deliver them updates about our speakers throughout the year. All this before our official publicity campaign even got off the ground! 
It's very encouraging.



More to come--



Amy, Debra, Scott, Nan, Mary Ann
