Dear BBB Members:
It gives me great pleasure to inform you that my new website has been launched. The primary aim of this website is to promote my new ebook, entitled LEARN TO PLAY THE PIANO IN 12 LESSONS.
If you’ve always had a secret desire to learn the piano but have been putting it off, this is the ebook for you. Written in plain and simple English, it walks you through the 12 lessons, simple as that. This ebook is perfect for beginners and even for people who have had piano lessons in the past, but forgotten about the basics. More info is available at my website.
And for all our BBB members, here’s a special offer: purchase my ebook for the special price of $19.99 (that’s 20% off the regular price of $24.99! Offer expires on December 15, 2008) Click on the link here.
Thanks, and look forward to hearing from you!

I’ve been telling folks about your ebook because it really is something one-of-a-kind and good and entertaining and… well, just perfect. Best of luck with this endeavor, my friend, and I would urge anyone at all interested in whetting their appetite for music to give this a try. You will have fun, and maybe discover some hidden talent or passion you never knew you had!

August 2, 2008 at 12:59 am #170770Jeff HesterKeymasterCongratulations on the launch of your site and the publication of your book! Looks great!
August 2, 2008 at 5:37 am #170773MrOatsMemberCongrats Philip! Very nice site.
About the eBook: I have a question. (Which may sound stupid)…But, could one learn to play the piano on an electronic keyboard? The reason I ask is because my mom sold our real piano years ago, and I was thinking of getting her and electronic keyboard for Christmas for her choir practice (she uses a keyboard for the notes on her music sheet).
If you can learn from an electronic keyboard, I would be delighted to buy your eBook in a few months! (It’s a while…but that is when I will have a keyboard.) My mom and I love listening to the piano, it would be great if we could learn (easily) how to play it.
Also: have you considered listing your eBook on eBay.com? I think it would get your eBook alot more attention. Just a suggestion.
Good luck with your site and selling your eBook! 🙂
August 2, 2008 at 6:15 am #170778PhilipModeratorHey thanks, Andrew. And to answer your question, YES, you can start learning piano on a digital or electronic keyboard (see my site FAQs here) In fact, a lot of my beginner students started off with digital keyboards, because they’re relatively cheap, portable, and are always in tune.
And thanks about that eBay suggestion. I’ll look into it.

But, I did this time. Very nice, answered all my questions!
Your welcome about the suggestion. You can link to your site and everything in the eBay listing if you wanted (“Don’t wait for the auction to end! Buy it now for $24.99 [or whatever price you chose to change it to] direct through my website!”). I have sold a few things on eBay myself and know a thing or two…:)

That gives you the perfect excuse to get a piano keyboard, doesn’t it? 😀 Pretty soon you’ll be rousing the whole household playing and singing, “…I did it MY way.”
