    A free copy of Tribes? Wow!
    I'm a Seth Godin fan too and I've been waiting a long time for this book to come out. (Power to the bald guys! Our day is coming!) I'm also a Jay fan and I never miss his posts. If chosen, I will read the book quickly and forward it to a deserving citizen.
    Say, as long as I'm here....

    Just got done reading Seth Godin's book "Meatball Sundae". I loved it and and am hooked on reading more of his books. I would love to read his new book "Tribes"!

    Count me in too. (thanks twitter for the heads up..)

    I also want to know about the cool widget/ function that let's people see what my last blog post was - very cool.

    I knew subscribing to your blog would pay off! I'm sure you'll be getting tons of comments in the next week, but of course I'm going to be the winner so it's no big deal :P

    If I do win, I promise to read and pass it on just like you're doing.

    Well Jay, you already know how I feel about this, so much so that I almost didn't feel that I needed to put my name down. But, since your daughter is doing the picking and does not know me or that I told you I wanted to read Tribes a while back. I figured I had better add my name here.

    Now that is really cool example of generosity, and what a fine example of marketing for Seth. When you think about it, its tough to buy the "buzz" that something unexpectedly free creates. My hat is off to him, yet again!

    Your rule about not keeping it continues the generosity started by Seth. Nice one!
  • Jay - The Phoenix Real Estate · 1 year ago
    Thanks for playing along folks! The one that wins is going to get a great book to read and pass along.

    @Geordie - the last blog post thing is done by a plugin - CommentLuv. You can get it here: http://www.commentluv.com/ I don't know if if works on Blogger, but there should be info on the site.

    Jay:

    I'd be delighted to read it and give it away. That'll provide me with the incentive to actually finish it quickly, knowing that I'm obligated to pass it on!

    And BTW, Happy Birthday! Us Libra's gotta stick together brutha!

  • Barry@Scottsdale Real Estate · 1 year ago
    Pick me! Pick Me! Haa. I would love to have a read and pass it along. I've never actually read a book by Seth. His marketing plan is brilliant by the way.
  • VickiLloyd · 1 year ago
    I have read and own most of Seth\'s books, and have loaned (that\'s like giving because they never seem to come back) several of them. If I win, I will have to give it away because it\'s the only thing my kids know to get me for Christmas!

    I would love to read and pass on Tribes. Ribesi got me here from www.Twitter.com/EdLovesSumo He is a game changer for you when he creates traffic.

    I have a test to see how many people will signup for a free bonus I have for them at www.InspiredByPeople.com . We all need a little boost and this could be it for you.

  • Justin McHood · 1 year ago
    Give it to us!

    If you give it to us, that is like double-impact since we will both read it and THEN pass it on.

    Oh, and happy birthday of course.

    Seth Who? Why is a book called Tribes important to an "independent" real estate agent? Sounds like a Jonathan Seagull thing to me, but that bird was free - I mean "independent". Good Luck to everyone.

    Hmmmmm, 57 people wanting one Seth Godin book :). OK, I too am a member of Triiibes and will run a similar raffle on my site. You see, I too must pay the book forward. So y'all will get a 2nd chance for a copy of Triiibes. Will put the post up in a day or two.

    Great idea Jay.

    I was just starting to think I knew Seth's shtick, viral marketing by being remarkable. But here he takes that one idea and applies it in a completely different new way. I guess he still has a lot I can learn from.

  • Young Che · 1 year ago
    My copy still hasn’t arrived but I listened to part of the audio book last night.
    Seth makes great insights with this topic. It reminds me of the strategy used by the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan during the build up to the most successful tribal movements we’ve witnessed. The Million Man March.

    I'm beginning to feel like I'm the only person alive who doesn't know anything about Seth other than his name! With all this buzz, I am thinking I'm missing out and, whether I win or not... I will look for his book and read it. His marketing technique obviously worked so I am extra curious to dig into the pages now!

    I love your blog giveaway idea and think it would be awesome to see the winner read it, put their name on it, post it on their blog , and give it away as a tradition you've started. I promise to do just that should I get my hands on one of THE copies you're offering. (I also promise to rush read it - and then buy a copy to keep - as I suspect it's going to be great!)

    Just for the record, I did, indeed, make a unilateral decision to part with our second copy of Tribes, unbeknownst to my Better Half. However, being the kind, gentle, giving soul that she is, I'm sure I will be suitably rewarded for this selfless and altruistic act of generosity.

    At least, that's what I'm counting on...
