Google Book Search Helps Authors Sell More Books
| |
| The jury is in… and it’s a split decision. Split on the Google Book Search Program that is. Some people love it. Others think it’s the apocalypse. I really don’t want to get into the legal ramifications, copyright law and every other argument out there. The bottom line: From a book marketing standpoint, it’s a good thing. Why? It’s simple. People can’t buy what they don’t know about. Google Book Search lets people find a book with the topic they’re searching for and allows them to peek inside. If they like it, and want more they can buy it. |

The Secret - Ancient Scrolls and Their Impact on the Sales Force
| |
| Al Turrisi was kind enough to give me a book called the Power of the Kabbalah. Its ancient scrolls originated around 4,000 years ago, inspired The Secretand predate Moses and the Bible! Since this book is not the Kabbalah itself, rather a Cliff Notes version, it tends to read more like a self-help book. It is far more powerful than a self-help book though as it points to a number of rules that will cause a transformation in one's life. |

| |
| There are several reasons to rename a book such as adding a subtitle to be friendlier to search engines.

A review of the book, Pitch Anything, by Oren Klaff
| |
| As President of the B2B demand generation company, Find New Customers, and a prolific blogger, I’m often invited to do book review. But after doing quite a few, one grows jaded a bit – so we ask tough questions.
The two questions I ask every time I do a book review:
Does the book bring fresh insights and perspective?
Is the book well written and easy to read?
Only a book that gets a “Yes” on both questions gets a 5 star review. |
