Rating: Summary: Nothing Else Like It Review: There are a lot of good e-commerce books all of which are well intentioned, but few of which really inspire. Then there's "StrikingItRich.com". Because it only has real world examples, prepare yourself to be completely motivated, inspired and downright dizzy with excitement. Jaclyn Easton doesn't tell you how to be successful, she proves it by introducing you to people just like yourself, who, with as little as $30 started websites now worth millions. The book focuses on all types of sites, including B2B and subscription sites (those which charge a monthly entrance fee) in addition to consumer retailing and content ventures. What I found most rewarding is how different each story is. This could have been the same tale told 23 different ways. These profiles are as different as can be, each with a fresh perspective that practically insures that your web business can be one of the ones striking it rich too.
Rating: Summary: I've Read It 3 Times Review: This is one of the most important books on "virtualpreneuring" since it focuses on case studies of successful Web-commerce sites. It was exhilirating to read about companies that are actually driving revenue and earnings on the Web. This book is must reading!
Rating: Summary: very entry level Review: I don't mean to be offensive to the writers, but for me this book was a waste of money. If you are looking to see how people got started on the web two years ago, and you are totally new to e-commerce, then it may have some value for you. Particularly if you are and plan to stay a small business. If your desire is to create a business $5M or more in annual sales online, then I recommend looking at some other titles. I gave my copy to our local Human Needs Center.
Rating: Summary: Absolutely Amazing Review: This is the most informative book I've ever read about e-commerce. It's stuffed with stories of people like me who have a little bit of money but now are making millions online. Jaclyn Easton's writing style is also really fun.
