Keep out of the hands of your competitors

What made the experience of listening to Piranha Marketing the most enjoyable?

The authors do a great job talking back and forth and share techniques and real life examples of what has worked for them and others. I made you feel like you were getting coaching worth thousands of dollars.

What did you like best about this story?

The stories and examples were engaging and they talk about many different industries and businesses using the methods.

Which character – as performed by Joe Polish and Tim Paulson – was your favorite?

There was only two characters both Joe Polish and Tim Paulson did great and I will buy more material from them in the future.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

At first I didn't want to write a review for fear my competitors would get on even playing field by listening to this program too.

Any additional comments?

If you own a business, do marketing, or sales this book will give you information to not only grow your business but have a system in place to know where the success came from and how to duplicate or increase your success.

Starting a business?

Helped a great amount but what about just starting a business with no clients? A lot of their tactics was based on already having clients.

A good message of tried and true marketing methods

Excellent collection of marketing strategies for classic business models. Would have gotten 5 stars in 2004 when it was published. I'm left a little wanting wondering what a 2016 revision would have updated. Regardless, 90% of the strategies I can implement today and I feel it would be beneficial.

Worth your money 10X

I recommend this program. Those who write bad reviews most likely have not tried any of the strategies shown inside. If they have. It would be nice they could share the experience and why they didn't work. I think the most valuable lesson is to take action and use the strategies and imp,enemy them in our business. Otherwise we are just spectators.

Unbearable

What would have made Piranha Marketing better?

If the publisher would have slapped these two idiots and sent them back to cleaning carpets.

What was most disappointing about Joe Polish and Tim Paulson ’s story?

It's not a book. Its a recorded discussion. That's not a bad thing. But they often get side tracked, say unimportant things and repeat the same thing. The worst though is taking 10min to make a point that could have been made in one sentence.
They seem to be stuck in the 90's, taking a lot of time discussing why phonebook ads are not a great idea. Yes they actually send a lot of time talking about phonebook ads. They also talk A LOT about recorded answering machine messages to deliver info. I got a few hours in and haven't heard about any content delivery systems that didn't exist in the 80's. The only useful information is basic common sense. There is nothing redeeming about this audio. It's a pointless, repetitive, outdated, boring, waste of time.

Would you be willing to try another one of Joe Polish and Tim Paulson ’s performances?

I would rather die

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

A million times, no!

Any additional comments?

So so so so bad.

An oldie but timeless content

Joe's methods are timeless and the thoughts behind them . Tele seminars and audio recordings may be considered out of date tech but the principals

Amazing book.

Really insightful and actionable book for any industry. There is literally no BS or page filling in it. Any entrepreneur or business owner should buy this, it's better than a seminar.

Ahead of it's time but quite dated now

Interesting - the foundations of what is considered good marketing in the digital era. But talk of free recorded messages is a little dated now.

Ridiculously Awesome!

Love it so much! If you want to build an Easy, Lucrative & Fun business... then do yourself a favour and grab this training. God bless Joe & Tim forever!

Essential learning!

It goes straight to the meat and delivers key principles along with great techniques. If you pay attention, take notes and implement as instructed, you'll be well on your way to seeing real change in your business!

I was very excited to hear how simple approaches to marketing can bring such great long term results. As is often the case, the things that work best are rarely ever overly complex.

Every chapter introduces a new principle and a technique and with even half the wisdom from this book, you could probably see a difference in your business .

The lively authors also narrated the book and I quite their chemistry and honesty, it made the experience easy to get through.

Overall, I'd highly recommend!

On My Second Listening Excellent Marketing Advise

Would you consider the audio edition of Piranha Marketing to be better than the print version?

Yes although its been handy finding the bookmark option on the Audible App its till nice to read and take notes which is much needed with this.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Piranha Marketing?

There are many memorable marketing highlights and most I will implement.

Which character – as performed by Joe Polish and Tim Paulson – was your favourite?

They both are very knowledgeable and come across as good guys

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

A lot of aha moments.

Any additional comments?

This should be a must listen/read for anyone wanting to start a business or who is looking to improve there current business.

learnt a lot

I found the book very interesting and it gave me a few good ideas. Some of the tips may be a bit dated but then you can just adjust them slightly. I will definitely listen to it again
