Excellent Book for Service Businesses, 2008-12-14
I chose this book because I was overwhelmed by the idea of marketing. I needed a book that would help me structure a plan, design it, and be able to implement it quickly.

This book was all that and more. Within 1 day I was able to narrow down my strategies from too many to 2 focused and high gain strategies - CJ says that by being focused, we get better results.

Within the 6 strategies in the book there are many, many action steps to choose from. A great tool is the action menu. She breaks down the action steps into 'appetizers, main course and dessert'. And just like a well balanced meal, we choose from the menu of items to create a balanced marketing plan. And if you were stuck, she offers several 'recipes' for each strategy to help move you along. The 28-day plan and tracking sheet will help you measure your actions and hold you accountable to implementing the plan.

Brilliant in its simplicity and ease of execution.

A must for consulting and other client-based businesses, 2008-06-04
This book contains a set of exercises and activities which have, in at least two cases that I know of, brought small businesses from near-insolvency to client saturation. Without spending for advertising, there are multiple techniques and a framework for effective implementation to make a company visible to its potential clients. You should have a buddy to do the 28 days, but it doesn't have to be someone from your own company or even your own industry. You can find one through the companion website if needed. It's like Nike: just do it.

Good, practical handbook on building your business!, 2008-05-25
This second edition is a sound primer for those in any profession looking to build their business. It emphasizes the notion of an entire marketing cycle and process. The process never ends and you need to devote as much time and effort to the marketing process as you do toward the technical aspects of your profession. That is a hard conceptual wall for many to break through.

GET CLIENTS NOW! has a practical. hands-on bent with leads to lots of other books, resources, articles, websites, etc. It has useful forms and sound day by day tips on jumpstarting your marketing efforts. I especially liked the concept of continually "feeding the pipeline"!

A good resource!

Good way to get started..., 2008-05-01
This book is pretty good way of getting new clients. I read each page with interest but could not get into following the daily ritual of doing tasks like cold calling contacts, warm contacts, networking, speeches e.t.c. It reads more like business coaching and generalized and may be more of fit for coaches. I skipped most of the hurah and completed the book. Overcoming sales objections e.t.c., small business networking and other tools proved to be valuable reading though. would recommend this book but should be coupled with supplementary reading on the subject.
