Infomercial for CCBN,
By A Customer
This review is from: Investor Relations in the Internet Age : a CCBN Perspective (Paperback)
Don't be fooled into buying this book. You'll be paying for an infomercial for CCBN and its affiliates. The book is all about how CCBN can help the IRO with IR tasks. There is very little substance besides stating the obvious. These guys must be good at marketing.

Old information, precedes Sarbanes Oxley,
By "djones343" (Toronto, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Investor Relations in the Internet Age : a CCBN Perspective (Paperback)
Not only is this an infomercial for CCBN, the investor relations website vendor, but the information is now very out of date. The book was written at a time when CCBN's advice was that a corporate governance section on your IR website consisted of a list of your directors with little or no biographic detail, and a list of company managers with perhaps a short bio on each. We have come a long way since then, and so has CCBN, but this book, like many to do with the fast changing Internet, is now stale. You would do better to read www.irwebreport.com or www.irbp.org, or even visit the sites of CCBN and Shareholder.com.

Bravo!,

This review is from: Investor Relations in the Internet Age : a CCBN Perspective (Paperback)
With a full plate and a relatively small IR team, I find it difficult to keep up on the latest in ONLINE IR. One afternoon of reading this book, and I felt up to speed. Well written. Easy to read. Rich with examples. Bravo!
