I've bought and read all of Dan's No B.S. books and was very dissapointed with this one. While he does promote his books and services in the other books, it's not in a blatant hard sell fashion as in this book. So much so, the whole book seems to be a tease and a marketing attempt for his inner cicle's services.

Nonetheless, I'd give Dan the benefit of the doubt, he is after all a marketing guru. In fact, I got a lot of good ideas from his free newsletter. It seems to me, however, that ever since he partnered with Bill Glazer, everything that's published under his name is a non-stop commercial for the Kennedy inner cirlce.

Disappointed April 12, 2007
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I am not sure if I should be disappointed with the book itself, or the fact that Dan Kennedy's students run around online giving all his products 5 star blindly.

This book is NOT written by Dan Kennedy. Dan Kennedy only wrote the first chapter, and from that point on, each chapter contains teaser content and a plug for a different guru.

This book has some nice overview of some examples, but it is not as good as the reviewers make it out to be. You will not get anything concrete out of it.

Format:Paperback
This book is nothing more than a marketing tool for the author to get you to buy more of his books, seminars and products. Each chapter gives a taste of a marketing concept and then ends the chapter with a website to go to for more information. Of course these websites want you to purchase the information in the form of more books, newsletters, seminars, etc. I also purchased 2 other marketing books at the time I bought this one, "How To Become A Marketing Superstar" by Jeffrey J. Fox and "Your Marketing Sucks" by Mark Stevens. Both offered complete, sound marketing concepts that I've already put to use and are showing results. And best of all...they didnt' try to sell me anything!

lots of hype and upsells
While this was the first Dan Kennedy book I purchased, it is also the weakest. While it does have some original content, most of what is written is recycled from the older books. Read more

Strategy & Techniques? No. Pie in the sky? Yes
The review promises "behind the scenes & off-the-record strategies of today's top direct marketers." This book was woefully short on strategy or technique. Read more
