Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Many new owners of home-based businesses often need help in developing the marketing and sales skills that can enable their businesses not only to survive but to grow profitably. In this step-by-step guide, Gordon discusses successful techniques and strategies, showing readers how to develop and implement a "proactive" sales program. She also outlines methods for successful meetings with clients, from prescreening to the closing sale, and she devotes extensive coverage to producing and using successful presentations and seminars. Gordon also notes how to build the image of one's company through the media, providing advice on planning, selecting, and placing ads. Paul and Sarah Edwards's Getting Business To Come to You ( LJ 10/15/91) covers many of these same aspects, but Gordon's book contains valuable case studies. Recommended for all small and/or home-based business collections. (Index not seen.)-- Loraine F. Sweetland, Rebok Memorial Lib., Silver Spring, Md.
