Is Marketing Champions Really Worth It? Well is Breaking the Marketing Code Important to You?I'm
not sure just how much thought went into this book. It's also very hard to figure out how many hours the authors
Roy A. Young, Allen M. Weiss and David W. Stewart contributed to the over all preparation of the concepts
put into this book.
But after countless hours reading the chapters of this book before the
advance uncorrected proof, scrutinizing the first five chapters with heavy introspection and experimentation
of the ideas I can tell you the following: It would take you countless personal hours, immeasurable amounts
of interviews, and the experience of CEO's from dozens of companies to amass the wealth of knowledge that you can
easily pull out of this book.
So would you want to try to attempt what these authors have
personally done for you in order to give you insight beyond the competition? If you wouldn't do you dream
of failing in your endeavors as a marketing advisor, consultant or company? Well I'm very proud to say that some
of the above endorsements from Phil Kotler and Seth Godin are more than advertising endorsements by some
of the leading marketing experts. But they are genuine endorsements that really help you to recognize how rare
this book is. More importantly how different the perspective of these three gentleman really are.
For example their input about what is a marketing compass?, How does a marketing compass work?,
and what you can do to put your own marketing compass in order are sure to cause you to think more deeply about these
concepts.
Part one and two are so full of marketing ideas, so architecturally rich
in sound marketing concepts that truly the authors could have clearly pulled their stop sign out and said "hey
were going to stop right here" but thank God they didn't. They went on in part three to go deeper than a
scuba diver in their exploration of how to manage east. Exploring ideas that show you how you can "Bust Silos and
Build Bridges" giving you five techniques to apply some wonderful ideas.
And this is after
a wealth of information where they show you how to break down your Myths of Marketing. I'll admit first that my myths
were trapped but what I discovered from Roy Young is quite an eye opening list of good marketing strategies
that work. Their input on how to improve upon your Marketing language will make a huge difference in your
marketing relationships. Whether they are in the company or outside of the company the language barriers with in
your grasp are very limited.
Here's your chance to break the marketing code. This really
is a great book with so many ideas I put it in the reference part of my library. Why? Because I'll be using
it to reference for many years to come. Thanks for your time....................

& Dr. of Marketing,

| | A Crying Shame...And A Constant Reminder!
As a
child who lived in the Chicago housing projects prior to moving to Germany I became lost for words as I turned the
pages of one of the most moving books I've ever experienced. Places I've seen as a playful child running
across the country side now become surreal in my mind as I think about the innocent lives that were slaughtered on
that same ground. And now that I've observed the photographs of my Jewish brothers and sisters in this book
"The Holocaust Chronicle" some things will never be the same for me. I also believe that you will view
life differently after you've read this book.
For one this book describes the ghetto's
of Europe during the Holocaust using pictures and words that one would never imagine. It has so much depth
and meaning even in the words that it is quite amazing. For instance the word "ghetto" (which in the United
States has become a word referencing the slums where poor Americans live) will no longer have the same meaning
for me as it use to. Some call the Housing Projects that I came from in Chicago a ghetto...but this is a poor, poor
use of the word now that I've observed the ghettos of Europe during the Holocaust. Read the book and you'll
see exactly what I mean.
The Holocaust Chronicle is an excellent resource for virtually anything
you would like to know about this event in history. This book should instantly become a part of all libraries
in every community, private and personal.
Having lived in Germany for nearly 5 years as
a lad I've always considered myself quite a history buff especially concerning military affairs since my
father spent his whole life serving the U.S. Army. But I must say this amazing book proves that I am very ignorant
of what went on from 1933-1946. The humiliation, the physical and mental anguish, even the use of art and
symbols were all reconstructed to try to destroy the Jew but thank God they were delivered from the hands of their
enemies. Although this book does not turn its face away from death but sometimes deals with it head on it
still contains with in it the hope of deliverance, the determination of faith and the triumph of those who
suffer persecution.
I have now done much diligence to understand this part of history so
that I can connect with other human beings on this planet in a way that is respectful. I must say Louis Weber
the publisher and all the contributing Authors and Consultants who poured their hearts and souls into the
development of "The Holocaust Chronicle" deserve much credit.
Although there is
much suffering between these pages the details within this book give us great understanding. It helps us all to realize,
respect and appreciate why we should be committed to never allow this to happen again regardless of our
religious beliefs, cultural, racial or ethnic background. As you turn the pages you will be exposed to the
criminals but at the same time you will find yourself rejoicing when heroic men and women went beyond what their
government would not give them the authority to do. Please hurry up and get this book, read it today and
share your ideas with others as I dedicate this review to my Jewish mother Anita Gold.

| |  Why should you Mind? Or Why should you play with it?
In the book writing industry there are hoards of books that grab your attention by title. So the question becomes
why should you mind? or why should you play with it? --that is your mind-- I mean when it's the only one
you've got... why waste time playing "Mind Games"? Are there other things you could do better? You know
what I mean. I mean are there other sure fired ways to help your performance with the human brain ...ways
other than playing with it? Sure there are many ways to employee your knowledge and plenty of other ways to use
life experiences to become more productive. Here you go! Check out this neat little book called "MIND
GAMES". It's full of some interesting ways to play with your mind and dozen of other ways to help your brian
grow.
I've discovered or uncovered many ways that were once hidden from me all because
I stopped to play around with the way I think. You'll be surprised at how much a little playing around with it helps
your brian to become open and ready for spontanious growth. You can do this quite easily when you sit down
with your favorite drink and read "Mind Games". Oh I like grape juice with a little filtered water in it...what
about you?
The human mind is an amazing complex organisim in itself. It really
doesn't need our assistance at all. Sometimes a small application is all thats needed. While most people are literally
playing with it (and we can tell that they're playing with it by how little they really use it in a controlled
way). I think there are many productive ways to use your mind and a great deal many more ways in which you can benefit
from reading the simply written, easy to follow exercises in "Mind Games".
"Mind Games" shows you how the brain is laid out. Like an amazing map it has some mind jerking titles
that make you want to read the book. It deals with concepts such as
How to win at chess
How to master remembering names or even the telephone directory
Increasing your listening skills
Thinking like a genius
How to feed your Brain
The importance of water toward improving
increased thinking.
Developing Mental Toughness
and over 129 other topics that they
expound on that reveal major benefits to the mind enthusiast. The subject of Brian Gym is just as interesting
as How to be Assertive. One of my most favorite parts of the book was when I stumbled across the subject of how to
develop your Listening Skills. Not even you can afford to over look learning new ways that you could improve
your skill of listening towards. Well Mind games is a neat little book I'd like to recommend to you. Are you listening?
I sure hope you are..because if you're not...think of all the relationships you could make huge improvements
in if you were just listening. Thanks for doing that!
Your Servant,
Deremiah, *CPE
PS
Did I tell you that MIND GAMES focuses on improving the
mind? Can you afford not to make mental improvements? I think you should Mind...I think you should play
with it! MIND GAMES? | |

| | ONLY the rare have VISION...all the rest have Tele-VISION...Paul Arden's
a rare breed!
Dare to Think The Opposite is more than you Think...
This isn't the first Paul Arden book I've read through and examined for review. The good news hopefully is it won't
be the last Paul writes.
This book cuts to the gut of considering doing things differently
without being apprehensive. And in less time than you could read this whole review backwards you can get through
his new book. I think that's also what makes the books written by Arden interesting. Their short on paper
but long on ideas. Great for you if you're always complaining about not having enough time to get through a good
book.
I think the only way to put mileage on an idle mind is to read books that make you
say huh! "I never thought of it like that". This makes a book well worth the reading. Benjamin Franklin
said in Poor Richard's Almanack..."Reading makes a full man--Meditation a profound man--Discourse a
clear man."
So are you afraid of applying simple rules in the reverse? Do you often
just go with the status quo or follow common patterns or guidelines for thinking? If you're not afraid to think
in the opposite or if the following title with the words backwards doesn't bother you than you may be well
on your way to something worth imagining differently. "WHATEVER YOU THINK Think the Opposite" is worth
your time.
The book opens up on page 7 with a Flop...and are you willing to take one and
try an idea that goes against reason?
In this day and age how willing are you to be unfashionable?
Well get ready to put on your high heeled sneakers as you prepare to take another drastic right turn in
a left turn lane which seems to spin out of control on pg 16 & 17 in order to jump-start your thinking about
"The Height of Unfashion" and how taking risk to make a decision that's unfashionable often leads
you to the next unpredictable road to greatness.
"The Age of Unreason", and "There
is no right point of view" both make you think about perspective and how yours could be screwing you up from
seeing the things you're missing. Now if you're not into progressive thinking don't try this book. Again
I think Paul Ardens on to something and the cost of the book is worth taking a plunge to gain some great
increase in your imagination. I got a lot out of the book. In this generation you need VISION not Tele-VISION to
make it. As you can see I like the book and you will too!

| | A Franklinian mindset develops clarity of thought and sound mind
Poor Richard Ain't
Poor no More
Benjamin Franklin has put together a masterpiece of self developing ideas and proverbs for the intellectual
and the simpleton. For the mentally constipated and the indecisive. You too may think what can I learn from a dead man whose
been dead for over 216 years? I'll answer that one for you...You can learn a lot! "Though he be dead yet does he still speak".
All I can say is you too might be surprised at how many errors you could have avoided if you only had these thoughts by
one of America's pivatol forefathers of our great country.
How often have you wanted to develop clarity of thought?
To be able to look through muddy waters filled with ideas and still see clearly. Have you ever put a dollar amount on sound
mind and maybe just what it's probably cost you in worry? Well here's your chance to de-weed your ideas and make your mind-garden
grow. Every page of this wonderful book is full of rich parallels, clear contrast and productive concepts.
I wouldn't
tell you this book is valuable if it were not. It's one of the most highly read books since the Bible and after reading
it one time you'll take a look at your calendar to mark-off when you'll read it again. I know I have. Here's a few great
ideas from the book...
"Most People return small Favours, acknowledge middling ones, and repay great ones with Ingratitude."
"He that scatters thorns, let him not go barefoot"
"He that lieth down with dogs, shall rise up with fleas"
"Cheese and salt meat should be sparinigly eat"
"Pay what you owe and you'll know what is your own"
These
are some of Benjamin Franklins compulations of great thoughts and wonderful ideas to meditate upon. I think I've found one
of the few gems of Franklin and now know why he was such a great scientist, inventor, publisher, advertising man, marketer,
diplomat, teacher, advocate against slavery and framer of the constitution. You'll enjoy the book and if you don't send
me your copy and I'll buy it off of you.

Advice for a Young CEO
Young Douglas Barry, has compiled an interesting series of responses from Corporate
CEO's, Presidents and top executives on the things that really should matter to a broad range of readers. One thing I liked
about the book is how easily it read. This format comes in handy for young teenagers and corporate types too busy to spend
a whole bunch of time getting the plot.
The diversity of ideas makes it another good read for people too easily
put off by one persons philosophy. Because in this book you get several dozen different philosophies. But very few cross
cultural executives which would have opened the door just a little more on the philosophical side from a broader global
perspective.
This book also has *Skip Ability...*the ability to skip from the front to the back without having
to feel like you're being forced to move in sequenced order.
I liked a lot of things about this book but I don't
think the book gives enough detail for it to have adorned the title "Wisdom for a Young CEO". At least for me I'm looking
for more detail on specific challenges a young CEO may have to face in their first years of running a major corporation.
You know the kind of adjustments that could cause you to make a company succeed or fail. Inspite of that I still gave the
book five stars because for the age range of the author this book is a good resource whether you're a teenager, young adult
or late blooming business mind looking for direction and inspiration.
I think it is an invaluable resource for so
many types of people on a few different levels. I also believe you'll enjoy it if this review opened your eyes on how the
book may work for you. Always remember that you get out of life what you give to life on the front end. Have a great day!

If You're not Thinking Critically, you're Not THINKING!
So what is Gelb trying to tell us about thinking anyway?
And does critically thinking creatively really matter when there are so many other alternative ways to get answers in todays
non-critically thinking culture? When we've got the internet, books, consultants, and some of the worlds greatest thinkers
that have ever lived ---all living at the same time--- how can we benefit from digging up a dead man by the name of Leonardo
da Vinci anyway? Well there is an appropriate ancient proverb found in the Hebrew text that says "though he be dead yet he
still speaketh". So is Gelb's book really necessary and does it add to the wealth of knowledge that you already know about
Leonardo?
Truthfully why do we need to think like Leonardo anyway? Will it improve our understanding for the next
great mind blowing adventure we take? You'll find all your answers and so much more in Michael J. Gelb's, National Bestseller.
He writes a wonderful introspective book on how Leonardo da Vinci was able to master his amazing perspectives and at the
same time summon up all of the Curosita' you could ever imagine. What a da Vincian approach to da Vinci's multi-sided perspectives.
I've learned more about vision than I've ever been aware of. So if you want to explore why Leonardo thought the way he did
you need to get Gelb's book. Well it's time to think and what better way to think clearly than to think critically. I've
been sharing some amazing values with a class of very bright Glenwood school students and I'm expecting greater things to
happen this new year just because it can!
