Lets say you have an idea, and you want to get your idea out but you do not know how. Or worse yet, you know how, but can’t figure out who to get your idea out to. All you want to do is ship, and you feel stranded.

The good thing is, in today’s world that is no longer an issue. If you want to ship, you can. There are way too many avenues, and way too much information on every topic, that you will be able to find an avenue.

Lets say you want to publish a book. You write the book, you edit it, you have close friends read it, and then you take to the task to find a publisher. After a while when that isn’t working you research self publishing. When you realize that is expensive, you decide to use the internet and look into amazon and other online or ebook sites. You decide that those are not good options either, so now what?

You want to get it out cheap and you want people to read your message, so what now?

Email, twitter, facebook, Linkedin, YouTube,

I did not use YouTube, but I have used the others to get the word out, and it works. I have shipped my book to other countries and allowed people to pay if they liked it or keep their money if they didn’t. People have been great, and 95% of the people who requested a copy have already paid for it. I am willing to say the other five, either didn’t like it, or haven’t finished reading it yet.

The point is, when you feel stuck, stop trying to do what everyone else has done. Do something different, stand out, blaze your own trail. Maybe it works and maybe it doesn’t but again, you tried, and you may have opened up the door for new ideas to flow.
