DESCRIPTION:
Solid. J. Gray If you pick this up at a store and just flip through it, alot of the influence chapters seem like 'duh' moments and suggestions, (for example, sex sells) and if that's all you get out of it you'll be missing alot of value. For me, the value of the book was revealed when I was re-designing my company's website and coming up with advertisement banners - having all the main influences, examples, and a walk-through on how they work and why really helped me crystallize the value of my brand and bring to the surface (and to the eyes of my customers) some of the influences. Nice Information and Nice Read Very cool book. Clever writing that's clear to understand and not too wordy. It's already gotten me re-thinking the way I approach selling myself in a few ways. Nice.. Five Stars Aida Guerra Anzaldua Excellent book!
