Web Copy That Sells: The Revolutionary Formula for Creating Killer Copy Every Time Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Ms. Veloso is a specialist in writing the kind of copy which sells online courses and other one-per-website items. Because these items often have high selling prices, they take a lot of long, intense, hard selling to convince buyers to pull the trigger. If you're trying to sell a book, course, get rich quick scheme, diet plan, etc., this book will give you great advice on how to write hard-hitting sales copy.
However, if you, like me, wanted advice more about selling a bunch of products in a more traditional e'commerce catalog with hundreds of products, you won't find such info here. SOME of what she says applies to that type of writing, but if I were to use her hard-hitting sales techniques on my customers, it would put them off and make my site seem a little too miuch like a used car lot. A better choice: Catalog Copy That Sizzles by Herschell Gordon Lewis. Also Persuasive Online Copywriting by Bryan and Jeff Eisenberg will give you much of the same information but without the hard sell.
Now, that said, Veloso does give lots of information about the psychology of sales that is helpful (so do the Eisenbergs in their book Call To Action). And there are many, many tips here for other kinds of e'commerce that work WITH a catalog, partuclarly email, autoresponders, SIG files, how to avoid SPAM blockers, etc.
My goal for any business, advertising, or marketing book is to get at least one solid idea that I can put into practice...if I get at least one, the book was worth the cost. And I got a lot of "keeper" ideas from ths book. Also, I judge books by whether I feel like selling them on Amazon afterwards or whether they stay on my bookshelf as a reference. This one will stay on the shelf.

Never Fly Solo: Lead with Courage, Build Trusting Partnerships, and Reach New Heights in Business Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm an authority on sales training and have lost consulting deals over the years. But I have NO IDEA what it would mean to lose as a combat aviator. Think about it. Rob "Waldo" Waldman has to make the best decisions possible or he loses - he doesn't return from his mission.
What an outstanding resource Never Fly Solo is for anyone in the work world.
His thinking reinforces what I believe is the best way to distinguish good from bad business professionals. That is to recognize everyone makes either good or bad decisions. It gets no simpler than that.
Read here how an Air Force officer who flies is humbled to learn he's not the hotshot in the sky, but a part of a team that includes ground crew, mechanics, controllers, wingmen and more.
And from that experience flows wisdom that you can apply in business today.
One of my favorite stories is his description of "chair flying," actually simulating a mission in a chair prior to experiencing it in the cockpit. Mentally running every possible scenario, good and bad, can prepare you to succeed in life, as Waldman did in the air over 60+ combat missions.
I most highly recommend Never Fly Solo.

World's Greatest Direct Mail Sales Letters (Ntc Business Books) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a direct mail copywriter, this book is one of my top resources. Here are 96 of the all-time best selling direct mail letters. (My only criticism is that I had to count the number of letters because it was not listed.) Before each letter, the editors explain the challenge, the solution, and their comments.
These letters contain ideas and patterns that can be "borrowed" as templates. How would you like your letter to be patterned after one that brought $1B in sales to American Express?
The chapters are conveniently divided by product or service category: Subscriptions, Collectibles, Products, Books, Financial Services and Investments, Memberships, B2B, Personal Services and Insurance, and Fund Raising. Do you need a letter to sell subscriptions? See how it was done by The Wall Street Journal, Worth Magazine, and others.
If you are involved in writing or publishing direct mail, this tool can only increase your R.O.I.

The Million-Dollar Financial Services Practice: A Proven System for Becoming a Top Producer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I must not have read the same book as the other reviewers or I did not work with Mr. Mullen. I ordered this book looking for great things after reading the other reviews. I was sadly disaapointed. This book could be summmed up on one page.
The what: have 20 years to chase people with at least $250,000 to invest in modern portfolio theory. The How: You accomplish this by contacting 100 prospects (people you have met and would be open to meeting with you again) at least twice a month. Once via a phone call, letter or email. Once via a drop by in person. Raise at least $120 million with an ROA of .8% and you have a $1 million dollar practice. His scripts are very different than the ones on his website and the 15 marketing plans are a joke. For example, Mr. Mullen states that 52% of the millionaires in the US are business owners and he spends 5 pages on a marketing plan with three of the pages scripts. Where is the detailed step by step plan.
Great promise, not much substance.
Save your money and DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK!!!! I would be curious why Mr. Mullen is retired and why Merrill Lynch would let him if he has worked and produced so many great advisors.

The 10X Rule: The Only Difference Between Success and Failure Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Hi,
Thisd book can potentially be life changing.
I've created many of my own products and sold millions online. Yet, I
took away some very valuable ideas from this book.
Here are the top 7 things I learned (or was reminded of in a positive way):
1. Instead of blaming the economy for down sales, blame your activity level for being too low
It's easy to get in the mindset that the problem is the market or the economy. He makes a
great case that the problem is the activity of you and/or the employees in your company.
2. Become omnipresent
He has a chapter about omnipresence. This is a GREAT mindset for marketing....become
omnipresent in your market.
3. Seek to dominate your market instead of being competitive.
Being competitive is the wrong target. This is a great point and changes your mindset
totally.
4. We consistently underestimate the activity level required to get a result
The problem isn't laziness or anything else. It's simply that we underestimate
the activity level required to launch a new product, make sales or create a
successful marketing funnel.
5. 10x thinking + 10x action
This isn't about thinking only (like Think and Grow Rich) or action only.
Action without the right thought behind it spins your wheels.
6. Set your goal to be 10x greater than you think you need
Expand your thinking. I like this idea. It changes the activities you
plan to reach your goal.
7. Plan to take 10x the actions you think you need
Now, there are a LOT of ideas and nuances I didn't list above. One
of the things he does that's terrific is covers objections to increasing
your activity level.
He made me think about some of the ideas in my own thinking and
re-evaluate them. Very useful.
I highly recommend this book.

She even makes talking to clients about money something I can now do in a way that feels both appropriate and respectful - to me and to them.

Age of Conversation 3: It's Time to Get Busy Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Most business books take 200 pages to explain one basic notion. Not Age of Conversation. Since this is a collaborative book by over 170 people, pretty much every page contains a stand-alone insight. This is a perfect book to pick up in lost moments to quickly read a couple of thought-starting entries. Even better, because the 170 marketing, PR and communications experts actually communicated whiel they were writing this, after a while it turns out the stand-alone insights are all connected to form an interesting collection where many ideas build one greater story. Very cool.

"Social media" may be the business buzzword (or, buzz-phrase) of 2010, but what's happening beyond the hype? What new practices and guidelines is social media imposing on business-as-usual? And what makes this type of media so much different than the media we're all used to?From the boardroom to the locus of customer interaction, social media is transforming the way we do business. The impact of this is being felt in every customer interaction, each business decision, and even in the way we source, retain and engage our staffs. This third book in the Age of Conversation series is crowdsourced, bringing together the world's leading practitioners to share their stories, perspectives, observations, and strategies. Their diverse insights and varying approaches are a reflection of the global, changing nature of business today.

Facebook Marketing: An Hour a Day Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Any user of Facebook needs this book. If you are a small business owner or active online promoting your brand it really helps to have a guide and a shortcut to being effective online.
I first met Mari Smith online as I was getting my profile and fan pages up and operating.
Since then I found that she is THE leader in anything Facebook and is accessible from her fan page to help with any updates or questions that might come up.
What I liked about Facebook Marketing An Hour a Day is that it gives you a background on Facebook, defines it, and then helps guide you into developing a strategy and how to measure it.
In addition it also teaches you how to use pages and groups, how to use ads, and advanced tactics--so it is great for the average user or the small business person or online marketing teams.
I selected the Kindle edition because of the rapidly changing nature of social media so I could get it right away.
Things in social media change so fast (just like Facebook's new revamps over the last two weeks) so I do encourage you to download and begin using it right away.
This book is well worth the investment--go get it now and then go find MariSmith on Facebook!

The One to One Future: Building Relationships One Customer at a Time Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Peppers and Rogers may be the pioneers of one-to-one marketing techniques (or maybe even not), but they're terrible book writers. I've read their articles on the same topics, and they're much more concise. In the book, you learn all you really need to know in the first few paragraphs of each chapter; the rest is just regurgitation. I eventually gave up; I just couldn't read it anymore. You'd be better off reading a few articles, or someone else's books, unless you have an extremely high attention span or no background whatsoever in the concepts they discuss. They're very smart people, but if you've already learned the basics, this book will waste your time.

"I Love You More Than My Dog": Five Decisions That Drive Extreme Customer Loyalty in Good Times and Bad Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a one-of-a-kind book who's title "I Love You More Than My Dog" tells you how to create emotional bonds for life with your customers...the type of faithful relationships dog lovers have with their dogs. The 5 decisions Jeanne discusses that drive extreme, 'for life' customer loyalty in good times and bad are right on. The book provides every day tools that you can use to understand how you make decisions -- not only for your business, but for you personally - to become a beloved company with devoted customers.
Jeanne's book builds on her equally strong first book, "Chief Customer Officer", which provides specific methodologies for building customer centric organizations. Her new book builds on her already strong credibility as a customer zealot and provides real life examples of companies that demonstrate the 5 decisions every day, and have the business results to prove it.
"I Love You More Than My Dog" is a must read for anyone who wants to understand and act on the difference between having customers 'like' you and really 'love you' for life. More than your dog.
I'd give it 10 stars if I could.

Ready, Fire, Aim: Zero to $100 Million in No Time Flat (Agora Series) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I enjoy the occasional book on marketing and how to acheive success. The cover blurbs for "Ready, Aim, Fire" seemed promising as did some of the Amazon reviews. So I figured why not.
I can now answer the question "why not" in detail and at length.
First, the good news. Michael Masterson does a reasonably good job of distilling the advice offered in dozens of other books on advertising and marketing, from Napoleon Hill to Rosse Reeve's "Reality In Advertising". However, the solid advice gleaned from those classics is diluted with Masterson's endless preening and outright bragging.
The overall experience is not necessarily enjoyable or instructive, unless you are inspired by someone telling you, over and over and over again, of how successful and great he is.
A careful reading led me to become very suspicious of Michael Masterson and to do some quick research. Masterson claims to have had titles on the New York Times, Wall St. Journal and Amazon best seller lists. Indeed, on two occasions - and that means two distinct dates - Masterson was on the Wall St. Journal best seller list. This is not like being on that list week after week: it was twice for one time each. As for the New York Times, a Nexis search shows Michael Masterson appearing in the Times just once, with a comment in an article. No appearances on their best seller list. Amazon's best seller lists are very different and appearing on them is on meaningless. It is said that having 30 friends order a book at the same time will put you on their best sellers list for a little while at least.
More disturbing are Masterson's associations, one of which is Agora International, which publishes a number of investment newsletters which seem to be of the "we have a tip for you" variety. Agora was sued for fraud by the SEC at one point. This does not reflect directly on Masterson since he claims a nebulous role of "consultant" with them. It does, however, reflect on the company he keeps.
The company he keeps also includes AWAI, American Artists & Writers, Inc. Masterson doesn't say that he authored a product for them, a course on copywriting. Both AWAI and Masterson are the subject of literally hundreds of online complaints.
As I said, much of this book is borrowed and adapted. I don't have a problem with that since solid knowledge is intended to be passed on, as long as it is not plagarized in violation of copyright laws. But even here, Masterson leaves himself open to question. He attributes the concept of the "unique selling proposition" to a 1980 book called "Positioning". In fact, Rosser Reeves first put forth the expression and the concept in his 1961 "Reality In Advertising".
Would I recommend that someone read this book? Sort of. It is an adequate distillation of marketing advice from many reputable sources. To his credit, Masterson doesn't claim to be the original thinking here. On the other hand, Masterson's personal credibility is questionable and you really have to take what he says of his own success with a very large grain of salt. Personally I think there are better books in this area to be found.
Jerry

The Never Cold Call Again Online Playbook: The Definitive Guide to Internet Marketing Success Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased one of Mr. Rumbauskas' books about a year ago. I thought it was pretty standard stuff, but not too bad. When I got the email announcing "Online Playbook" I was curious. I thought I would give Mr. R another shot to impress me. There are several free bonuses that come with the purchase, so I thought $14 would be worth the spend. As it turns out, this book does nothing more than scratch the surface and is mostly full of information anyone who has advertised on the net once or twice would know. To get the actual "power secrets" Mr. Rumbauskas entices you with, you will have to shell out $500.00 for Rumbauskas' Marketing Opus program, which the author will happliy tell you all about when you register for the free bonuses. A real bait and switch tactic that left me cold. I would also recommend stearing clear of some of Mr. Rumbauskas' team mates - Joe Vitale, Matt Morris - who use some of the same infuriating tactics. If you don't mind fluff, get this book and your free bounuses. Otherwise don't waste your time or money on this one.

The Regis Touch: New Marketing Strategies For Uncertain Times Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Very good book that explains how to market technology products. Buy this book and "Crossing the Chasm" by Geoffrey Moore to get a good understanding of the specifics of technology marketing.
"The Regis Touch" is a book from the eighties but is still very interesting and insightful, with lessons you can use today.
