Product Details


Product Description

From Library Journal

First-time author Mackay has produced a "how-to" book that is different. Offering a series of lessons with titles like, "If You Don't Have a Destination, You'll Never Get There," or "Make Decisions with Your Heart and What You'll End Up with Is Heart Disease," he tells parables that make the point more by example than by just giving advice. How Mackay got Morrow to print 100,000 copies of his book and give himan unknown writera six-figure advance and a $150,000 promotion budget is as interesting as how he outflanked Calvin Griffith to keep the Twins in Minnesota. Highly recommended for most public and academic libraries. Michael D. Kathman, St. John's Univ. Lib., Collegeville, Minn.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best., Jan 12 2012
This review is from: Swim With The Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive: Outsell, Outmanage, Outmotivate, and Outnegotiate Your Competition (Paperback)
Starting up a new company? This gives great insight. If you are not particularly proficient in the people skills department, which you will need no matter what business, this will give you a blueprint.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nuts!, April 26 2004
By 
Ronald Davis (portland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A bunch of feel-good stories about the author. The only real meat is his list of questions about his/your customers. The substance of the book is: find out all you can about you customers AND find out how they fit in and see the companies they represent.

The only good news is the book has so little substance it took me only an hour to read it.
