Social Media for Direct Selling Representatives by Karen Clark
This product was recommended by Russell Nauta from CreditCardReviews
This book speaks on dos and don’s of engagement, community building, and pretty much every other aspect of social media marketing. Karen Clark has over 20 years of marketing experience and the book is not only packed with actionable strategies, the plans are very easy to implement, and the tone she uses, while technical enough, isn’t like ready a whitepaper.
Zero to One Zero To One By Peter Thiel
This product was recommended by Dipesh Purohit from Blogging Kraft
It is a great book for all the Bloggers and entrepreneurs or anyone thinking of starting a business. This book goes through all the aspects of starting a business and building it. Buried within a book on business and startups is a deep thesis about the relationship between technology, society, and our historical moment. There are subtlety and thoughtfulness that are rare in the business book Genre. In the author’s own strange but beautiful philosophy startups is a kind of salvation from societal decline and stagnation. This makes the book more interesting and important. I recommend this book for all the bloggers and entrepreneurs because it gives a new insight or perspective into business.
Psycho-Cybernetics by Dr Maltz
This product was recommended by Dipesh Purohit from Blogging Kraft
In psycho Cybernetics as its name implies, it guides you through a journey of exploring how does the human mind perceive the environment and it is psychological makeup. The thing that really impressed me was that this book is considered the guru of self-help books written since 1960, and many of the books I’ve read contained many principles Dr Maltz mentioned.
The writer was a plastic surgeon he wasn’t a psychologist. He noticed that many of his patients came to him complaining about their ugly noses or an apparent scar and believing that due to those disfigurements they had a miserable life or unsuccessful business or marriages. After the surgeries their lives changed dramatically, the question raised was, why?
The beautiful nose nor the scar changed their environment or that their IQs increased. Thus there must be something in their own minds something has to do with their own perception of the environment and attitudes towards it that changed, something that didn’t come from the outside, it came from within!
The Entrepreneur Mind by Kevin D Johnson
This product was recommended by Dipesh Purohit from Blogging Kraft
This is the real story of what it will take to succeed, from a guy that has done it. Right from the introduction, Kevin lays out the roadmap to successful entrepreneurship succinctly, directly and without hype or fluff. Elite entrepreneurs respond quickly, put their business first, consult with mentors often, hire the best team, create an environment of stressful urgency, use time wisely.
Kevin Johnson As Kevin clearly spells out, your critical thinking processes and your ability to deliver are the keys to determine your reality, not your status, standing, enthusiasm or potential. He also focuses on some of the more specific topics around your life, attitude & what it will take to develop a winning entrepreneurial mind. I reckon he might’ve also had his eye on some us older, more seasoned campaigners when he wrote this book. Kevin D Johnson’s book is without question the best I’ve read this year, and any aspiring (or struggling) entrepreneur should make this the very first book that they read before they take another single step. So do yourself a favour; learn the rules, and play. I personally liked this book a lot and It really helped a lot in my blog’s success. I recommend this book to everyone who wants to be an entrepreneur.
The 4-Hour Workweek by Timothy Ferriss
This product was recommended by Dipesh Purohit from Blogging Kraft
Timothy Ferriss’s book the Four Hour work Week is incredible in its own way. A few of the managers came back pretty impressed, so I cadged a copy off of a manager and skimmed/read it one sitting Friday night. Then add a dash of narcissistic personality disorder to get an idea of the tone of this book. The part of the book that I greatly enjoyed concerned time management and gave valuable tips on how not to be such a fucking patsy at work. He offers great advice on handling email (check only twice a day) and handling it (send clear if-then emails). But in this day of telecommuting, this is really less radical than he makes it sound. He makes a good case for quitting any job that doesn’t allow working from home on a regular basis. It’s too bad that the rest of the book couldn’t take on the same humorous and likeable tone while making its sometimes valid points. I guess you could sum up this book like this: There’s no TEAM in I. This book is one of the books that influenced me to quit everything and start a blog and it is working fine by me.
The One Thing. by Gary Keller
This product was recommended by Dipesh Purohit from Blogging Kraft
The one thing is another such book that actually changes the way you look at things. This book is really deep. While the title is easily marketable I felt the insight was really profound and one of those books I’ll definitely need to reference throughout my journey. This book goes through the mental aspect of the business and how can you focus more and more on what you do.
