It's great. Buy if you want to sell products via mail order, September 26, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: How You Too Can Make at Least $1 Million (But Probably Much More in the Mail-Order Business) (Paperback)
This is one of the guru's of direct mail. He started and sold 2 companies, then bought them back (Hennikers is the current one). He speaks from great authority and does not hold back any secrets.
This is the guy who runs those ads for $4.99 Swiss Army knives in the Wall Street Journal. And, he clearly explains why he does so (to build his in-house list). He also explains all the profitability ratios, etc.
I have heavily underlined this book. He has an interesting story to tell (he's an emigrant from Europe to South America to the U.S., to MBA school, to a corporate job, to his own business).
His opinions resonate throughout this book and leaves no doubt how to do anything. This is a great book.
