How To Have Your Story in Print
Pete Mitchell | 01/11/2009 | Pete Mitchell

Posted on 01/11/2009 3:21:04 PM PST by ModernDayHeroes.com

Here is a great way to honor your C.O., family member or friend that has or is serving in the military. Get their story in our next book on leadership!

As many of you know, Aloha Ronnie (http://www.moderndayheroes.com/aloha) was a contributing author in our wildly successful book, Modern Day Heroes: In Defense of America. Now we need your stories from the front lines!

You don't have to put pen to paper at all to get the story of someone you respect and love in front of the American people. You don't have to spend money on an ad or even buy a book. Your willingness to tell their story, or even your story of what you've seen and been apart of is enough!

Aloha Ronnie was the "Witness to the Heroism of Many" in Modern Day Heroes. What he saw and did in Vietnam still drives him today. Recently, Aloha Ronnie asked me to attend a retirement luncheon for a Garden Grove (CA) official. One of the people he introduced me to (a Vietnamese gal) had this to say about Ronnie, "Ronnie is more Vietnamese than I am!"

Ronnie is proud to have served his country in Vietnam. He is proud to serve his country still today.

Aloha Ronnie was gracious enough to give us a great story to use in our last book. I'm want to give you the same opportuity to tell the story of the heroism that you have seen.

My next book (currently titled), "The Leadership Secrets of American Heroes" is a primer on leadership for the business world with examples of leadership ripped from the battlefield.

Do you have a story that you want America to hear?

Let's do an interview. We will do a phone call and you can share your story with me. It can be a story of heroism that you have seen, a story of leadership that you experienced, or a story of success or loss that has affected you.

If your story is used, it will be shared with the thousands of Americans that I speak to and that read my books each year.

Please contact me at pete@petemitchellinc.com or call (800) 990-2734 x747 if you have a story that you would like to share. We will set up a time that is convenient for both of us to conduct an interview by phone.

Thank you!

Pete, I hope I have shared Karl’s story with you in an off-hand kind of way. Thank you.
