Review
" Tony Gattari, the young salesman credited with driving the Harvey Norman Group to dominance in computer sales, typifies the Harvey Norman style: straightforward, passionate, optimistic and an enthuser on a grand scale."

"The man credited with tightening Harvey Normans extraordinary grip in the retail PC market, Tony Gattari is now selling his secrets."
The Australian Newspaper
"Tony Gattari is in danger of becoming a legend in Australian computer retailing. He first hove into public view as the fast-talking sales hurricane behind Harvey Normans computer superstores, moved onto an ill-fated computer e-tailing venture and somehow managed to keep his investors on deck long enough to reinvent the company as an e-commerce engine for retailers wanting to sell their wares over the Internet."
The Sydney Morning Herald
"Tony Gattari, who flourished as a computer retailer in the 1990s, but failed as an online entrepreneur, has resurfaced as a motivational speaker and business adviser. He said his internet misfortune made him better placed to give advice. Computers made up just 5% of Harvey Norman sales when Mr. Gattari joined in 1991. When he stepped down nine years later, the division was turning over $565 million a year, or 30% of the franchises total sale."
The Australian Financial Review
"For his first big test, Gattari took the reins at Harveys computer division at his Harvey Norman stores. It was the success of this division that transformed Harvey Norman from a furniture seller to a retail powerhouse..."
