Rating: Summary: An essential book for all marketers! Review: In readying myself for the second printing of Go/No Go, my book on real estate and building construction, Raleigh Pinskey's "101 Ways to Promote Yourself" was recommended to me. Ms. Pinskey's book is highly evocative for creative marketing effort. She obviously has "been there, done that" and dispenses her wise brand of wisdom in a clear, thoughtful style. Of particular value is the resource list at the end of each of the 101 chapters. We even spoke directly on New Years Day Eve when she answered questions for me and pointed me in the right direction for Home Shopping Programs. "101 Ways" is highly recommended for those experienced and novice marketers wishing to hone their marketing skills.
Rating: Summary: Always within arm's reach! Review: This book is one of only 10 or so that I keep within arm's reach at all times! I find something new and useful whenever I open it. Two years after buying it, I still have more than a dozen pages bookmarked with "to do" written on them.Particularly useful are the tips on using testimonials, referrals, thank-you letters and getting media publicity. This book is absolutely essential for any small- or home-based business owner.
Rating: Summary: Very good and easy to read Review: This is a small and simple yet informative book. Most of the ideas are very general but its a starting point when you are trying to figure out ways to promote yourself or your business. I would definitely tell others to buy this book. For under $10 it was really a good buy.

For someone like me, who wants to start a business and make it a success but doesn't know the promotion end... it's a Godsend. Or a Goddesssend for us gals.

Rating: Summary: Forgeddabout paying high priced PR firms! Review: This book is EVERYTHING you need to know to REALLY understand promotion and marketing. This lady is some kind of genius or something. I learned more from this little book than I did in all the previous marketing classes I'd taken with fancy guys like Jay Abraham. What an impressive book this is, and it's so well-written it was easy to follow and create a marketing plan customizzed to MY needs. I refer ALL my clients to it now - the one book to have if you don't want to spend a lifetime studying marketing! Good work, Ms. Pinskey!
Rating: Summary: 101 Ways To Promote Yourself Review: Raleigh Pinskey book is the most comprehensive book I've ever read how to promote yourself or your business. You will use this as a reference for many years to come!
Rating: Summary: Delivers what it promises without granola, some Perrier. Review: This book is not about motivation, complex inner considerations, visualisations, nor creating purpose in your life. It is about fulfilling your vision - not FINDING one- although you will be clearer after reading Raleigh, what your strong points are and where you have some holes in your marketing / promoting/ self image. You will get more out of this book when you already HAVE your business/craft/dream... THEN reading this book will be like having a professional coach in your corner pointing in all the right directions to reach your target market, whether you be a toothbrush salesman or a rocket scientist and anything in between.
This book will help you find the language and the medium to devise and deliver your message. The start point of book is you HAVE a message or product or service already. Author is 100% a pro and a Mensch. Matter of fact winning strategies.
Rating: Summary: GREATTTTTTTTT Review: This book gave practical ways and very explicit ideas on how you can succeed. It gives clear cut down to earth examples about how you can put your best foot forward and actually do what the title says it is going to do!
Rating: Summary: Excellent source for marketing yourself! Review: Raleigh Pinskey has nailed the tools necessary for one to promote themselves. Highly informative and a much needed book if your planning on marketing yourself successfully.
