Customer Reviews

Online Marketing in Human Words
A great book that walks you through internet marketing in plain english and in ways that are easy to follow and even better, easy to implement. It's definately not a technical book, it's a great book designed for marketing and sales people.

It gives the how for a changing market.
The book works for business owners of all size. It lays the groundwork for the creation of workable marketing programs which can then be tweeked for each opportunity. Since I have yet to work in a business where everything deal is the same, it works perfectly.

I do like the way the author has sectioned out the book. I have a great deal of brand building and advertising experience, so I could skip to the area I was interested in without having to re-hash what I already know.

In all, a very good book that provides real information for the real world and examples of people who have already done it. Now, the more time I spend on the net, the more I see Mr. Cannon's ideas being used.

Well done...

No depth, out dated strategies and examples...
I read through other peoples reviews here at Amazon.com and bought this book. But it did not meet expectations at all. If you are a first time net users or are planning to wet your feet in the internet space then may be this book makes sense. But, if you already know the basics and are looking for depth of knowledge, strategic thinking and effective implementation tools for good content management...this is NOT the book. The author probably worked for an ad agency when ad agencies did ' business stategy work'.... I strongly recommend Killer Content by Mai-lan Tomsen instead.
