This book is EVERYTHING you need to know to REALLY understand promotion and marketing. This lady is some kind of genius or something. I learned more from this little book than I did in all the previous marketing classes I'd taken with fancy guys like Jay Abraham. What an impressive book this is, and it's so well-written it was easy to follow and create a marketing plan customizzed to MY needs. I refer ALL my clients to it now - the one book to have if you don't want to spend a lifetime studying marketing! Good work, Ms. Pinskey!

Raleigh Pinskey, makes it nearly impossible for you to fail in promoting yourself using this book unless maybe by chance you apply the following three methods

1.) You accidently put this book in a corner and can't find it.
2.) You close your eyes and can't remember where you put it.
3.) You use this book as a hat rack.

Well I didn't try anyone of the above techniques because I was too busy trying to read this book.

Raleigh is truly a Viz-ability coach who knows her stuff. On page 76 she tells you to "Sponsor A Contest", pg 212 she informs you to use Testimonials, pg 21 put your picture on a business card and promote yourself some more and last but not least she gives you 98 fresh, interesting, exciting other ways to get started on your self promotion mission.

Pinskey provides all the little bitty tid bits necessary for you to move from the rank and file of the average into the upper board rooms of the highly exalted. Pinskey's book roars with detailed steps and a caring that you rarely see in a tell-all-book like 101 Ways To Promote Yourself.

I only rate it four stars because I myself am a sole proprietor and it does help to have a book with a bunch of marketing ideas all in one. I do admit that some of the ideas for a sole proprietor is a little far fetched, but I reference it all the time to get some ideas going to market my services. I would still recommend it for those starting a business.
