Rating: Summary: Highly recommended reading for the business community.. Review: Don't let Jay Abraham's title fool you. It may sound like just another "me generation" appeal to greed, but a careful reading will reverse that impression. What Abraham stresses throughout this helpful marketing book is that you must earn your rewards through serving others. What you have to sell (whether a product, an idea, or a service) must fill a genuine human need. You will earn the loyalty of clients only if you sincerely care about satisfying their needs. From the numerous success stories in this book, we can believe that Abraham has helped more than 10,000 businesses, large and small, to recognize overlooked opportunities and capitalize on them. His preference for the term "client" rather than "customer" sets the tone. Customers are people who buy from you. But clients are those for whom you provide some guidance or who are under your protection. Think of yourself as serving your clients, he says, helping them make the decision that will be most satisfactory to them, so that they will come back again. Much of Jay Abraham's advice has the ring of the tried-and-true, those fundamentals of marketing that have applied to human transactions from the beginnings of barter and trade. As always, you must offer quality and value, deal honestly, and back up the claims you make for your product. In today's world, you must also function efficiently, find your market niche, and test your advertising concepts (he tells you exactly how). You must maintain a reliable database of clients and contact them periodically to discover their changing needs. Abraham offers sound strategies for obtaining referrals, maximizing your advertising dollars, and writing appealing advertising copy. But many of Abraham's ideas are imaginative, and he encourages imagination in promoting your company and its products. He cautions against departing too radically from the promotional strategies that have worked well, yet there is also a need for original and fresh approaches. E-commerce, says Abraham, follows basic marketing principles within a new medium. He discusses the unique advantages of Internet marketing, showing respect and familiarity with the milieu of Cyberspace, while suggesting sensible precautions to avoid wasting your time and money. This section alone is worth the price of the book. Helen Heightsman Gordon, Reviewer

Rating: Summary: The "Hot Speaker" You've Got To Hear/Read Review: Seminar "junkies" spend their lunch breaks looking to pick the brain of the "hot speaker" heard at the morning session. Some of us know that the speaker is either dining with the president of the organization or is in his room eating a sandwich and changing his shirt for the afternoon session. Jay Abraham makes it easy for those of us who are chronically afflicted with the desire to Out-Think, Out-Perform and Out-Earn our competition. My enjoyment was enhanced by the feeling that I had just gotten off a plane after sitting with a most interesting seat-mate. A seat-mate who had devoted a career to distilling the most important Business Success tools for my personal use. Unscheduled luncheons and random plane rides are a chancy way to assure opportunities for business success. Thank you Jay Abraham for sharing these "breakthroughs" in a concise, practical book that takes it's place as a permanent reference on my desk.
