Once again, Klein has delivered exactly what he promised. This is a great aid for any professional involved in public speaking or who meets with clients and wants to break the ice. When I prepare for a speaking engagement, I review this joke book and select a few of the many great jokes Klein presents. I pepper my presentation with this witty stories and it helps immediately create a strong bond between myself and the audience.
Anyone who speaks publicly without this book is at a dissadvantage.

This book is terrible. Overpriced and underdelivers. What a disappointment.

Surprisingly, some of the jokes in this book are actually funny. But, I have found from experience to steer clear of anything published by Larry Klein. For those of you new to the Financial Services industry be very careful when dealing with any of Larry Klein's companies. He does have some good stuff, but don't expect much service or follow-up.

I subscribe to Larry's ezine. I read and thoroughly enjoyed and prospered from reading Marketing to seniors about 4 years ago. The book here is good, not the best. The Cd however is thoroughly disappointing and lacking in content. The jokes from the book can actually be used in seminars.

It would be helpful if the publisher can make it clear that the CD contains only 5 minutes of sound. So people know what they are getting. The book is OK, but the CD has nearly nothin in it. No doubt, it is over priced.

If you can't find a dozen jokes out of this book that fit your style and get a laugh every time then you aren't trying. I went through the book with my son. Taking turns reading the jokes to test them. I can't wait to give my next seminar. The audio CD gives some good tips for telling jokes.
