Over the last few days, I've been noticing these promotions from small presses and self-published authors. I'm always looking for ways to promote - with a budget of 0 dollars.
Two different promotions were offering free money. Perhaps more were, but these two caught my eye, for the way they were worded:
The only qualification to get the $100 is, it seems, to purchase the book! What will these people do, when someone says "Okay, I bough the book; now send my $100 to..."
Yeah; most people wouldn't do this. They'll understand the meaning. But it would only take one, threatening to sue, to ruin an otherwise successful promotion.
Just my thoughts.

I know what they meant, but if a group of people got together, these people could be putting out a small fortune!

BUY [THIS BOOK] AND WIN A CHANCE AT $100!
Would be a lot safer!
Just my thoughts.
