Over 43,000 Listeners Achieved – Report January 1, 2007
The predicted growth-rate was for 30,000 listeners by the end of the year. We started at zero on April 16, 2006. Stefania and Strephon celebrated this achievement in their New Years Eve toast and talk as the Dutch fireworks banged away outside.
Success And New Website Coming
Now we have the experience of success like this we are quickly switching for 2007 to implementing a new website organized around two areas of subject matter: Writer’s Interface Writing Tools, and Expert Psychology. The sub-branches will be many subjects in both fields.
What does our success so far mean for 2006?
The goal was achieved of seeing whether there was good interest in the style of presentation and the ideas that Strephon has taught his students for years, and written into several books now not exactly in print that much.
The Internet Revolution
The revolution that has recently occurred is that the Internet has become the chief information publishing medium for the world. This represents a rebirth for Strephon and his thought.
Strephon shall no longer be concerned about publishing books in paper. They take years to write and to get publishers to publish. Through the Internet we have almost instant publishing and instant readers.
The Writer’s Interface
One further success in 2006 are the first sales of Strephon’s first interactive 92,000 words book, The Writer’s Interface. The success is immediate with immediate readers and users, unlike in the paper publishing world. Why even think of publishing in paper anymore?
Strephon may have created another first in being the first in information processing history to publish a full interface between software and its users. Software has become complicated, so that now regular users may only use thirty percent of a software’s functions. Many users do not have the time or special intelligence to figure out completely how to use a software’s capacities and apply them to real life product-creating situations.
In The Writer’s Interface Strephon not only explains and uses many of the functions of the best in its field, the WriteItNow software, but also adds to the software hundreds of writing-craft tools for the end user writers to use in writing novels, memoirs and screen plays. This is a first time feat since the help files and tutorials that go with writing software are not written by expert end users but by software developers.
It is a curious fact that while there are many excellent software manuals in paper, none of these useful compilations of information are built into the software itself. The Writer’s Interface changes all this, at least with regard to writer’s craft knowledge and using good organizing software to write novels and plays.
2007 Internet Publishing Plan
We shall publish much information in audio books this coming year. We shall also have downloads of Strephon’s writings available. There will be reasonably priced online buying of this material.
Podcasts and vodcasts will continue to be partially free, which means some free, but a complete set not free. It is time to earn a living through this new dominant medium of information publishing.
The Internet Web Revolution
It is time for a revolution in publishing! We in our own niche want to be at the forefront of this movement.
-It is only in the last year that online easy web-page design and functions have been made available at reasonable prices.
-It is only in this past year that the public has learned to buy online in a big way.
These two factors combined with the success of our interest area in Strephon’s thought and inspiration can now come together for what we hope is a successful new year with our projects.
We also are amazed and happy that our outreach is universal around the world. Thus the forth factor is that the Internet now allows us to easily find our audiences wherever our consciousness-lifestyle person lives.
Global Community
From today’s report here we note that only six of twenty-five visitors are from the United States, Strephon’s home country, twelve are from European countries, two from Canada, and the rest from the Far East. It’s a little difficult to read the above accurately.
We are now part of a global, spiritual consciousness community. Not, we add, unconscious spirituality, but persons working on integrating and making conscious their dark sides as well as realizing the positives in life.
We welcome all our listeners, viewers, learners and buyers for those of you serious about your own growth and purpose in life.
Thanks also for all your support with feedback and passing the word to others.
We are here for each other in 2007! That is the plan. Our thanks to all our help, including Ineke of Fotografica and Monique of Monique Family Incorporated.
Stefania and Strephon
