Promotion with my name only, that's all I have to do with it.
We need to reevaluate that women who ask for a pay raise or ask for a promotion - it's actually an okay thing.
There was a time when self-promotion was considered so verboten, especially for authors.
If I had followed my own rules - if I had eaten my own dog food - I would have created a digital book that is searchable and linkable, that can be corrected and updated and discussed and passed around. But I took my publisher's advance money. Hey, dog's gotta eat. The book publishing industry still works - for now - because it adds value with editing, promotion, sales, and cash.
Something I do love about social media is how you can expand your idea. You can make an extension of your art as opposed to just using it for promotion.
A lot of movies will deliver on the promotion but when you go see them, everything you laughed at was in the trailer.
I do all of marketing and promotion - it's the most exhaustive and rewarding part of the process and I wouldn't trade it for anything. The artist should be the person representing their brand because theyre the best person to do so.
When newspapers started to publish the box office scores of movies, I was horrified. Those results are totally fake because they never include the promotion budget.
You can't help someone unless she wants to help herself. You can give her a nudge, but if she doesn't want to help herself, no one is going to be able to force her to do anything. I like that "attraction rather than promotion" approach.
It's a hard slog doing promotion, but its nothing compared to working in a factory packing meat pies or whatever.
I was doing the promotion for Moon in LA at the same time that Tony Scott was there with [The Taking of] Pelham 123. But obviously he was so concentrating on his own film that he didn't even know I was doing a feature film.
There is no end to the promotion. There is no end to the possibilities. You can continue to promote a book for years, literally.
We feel pretty comfortable making music but beyond that there have been other things to take into account, including promotion, marketing, airplay.
I don't like to think that I'm on a treadmill of album, tour, promotion and all that.
The Andrew Principle is when the incompetence of an organization exceeds the incompetence of certain individuals within that organization, thereby allowing their promotion within said organization.
You can always tell when something is good, because the studio senses it has something good, and you can see them pour more and more resources into it. The promotion gets bigger and bigger.
There's another weight of us being in the public eye, which is this presumption that, because your work and your promotion work is very public, your private life should be, too.
Was all of Stephen A. Douglas's promotion of 'popular sovereignty' a plausible device for getting him elected president? With his death in June, 1861, any possible answer to that question went to Douglas's grave with him.
The structure of my life has changed a little. But we no longer have the time that we had, to be with family. Sometimes you can't even spend any time with friends because you are working so hard. You're either on tour or on promotion or suddenly we're taping the soap opera.
