Thank you Alan for giving the little fish a chance to win.

Blessing!

You haven't read any marketing book like this one

Where does The 1-Page Marketing Plan rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Among business books? Right there at the top. Among books? Surely in my top 10.

Any additional comments?

Most of us have read dozens of business books that attempt to teach us about sales and marketing.
They even go as far as saying that marketing is key. Well, this book doesn't do just that, it explains how marketing is up there in priority with the very design of your business.

It doesn't just contrast positioning with product-focused theories, it debunks some and sets others exactly where they belong.

Invaluable lessons to be learned on what a prospect is and how to treat him, how to craft your offer, how to make competition irrelevant (like that: make direct comparison to competitors an apples-to-oranges comparison), how gain the most out of your relationship with your customer, how to avoid the hell of commodity-based offers... And a ton more practical guidelines on how to change your mindset from an ad-for-sale business to one that's value, authority, and trust-based.

No book I've read on marketing comes near this one. It's simple for the rest of us, it doesn't get lost in the technical details of the marketing field, it is completely connected with the rest of what you have to learn as an entrepreneur.

It's an invaluable resource and I'll be sure to read it many times over.

Plain language education in marketing

Fantastic, easy listening audio book on marketing. Allan easily puts marketing buzz words into everyday language with simple analogies and metaphors. Well written. Great book. Already referred friend. 'RAVING FAN CREATED'.

Just what I needed

Would you listen to The 1-Page Marketing Plan again? Why?

I am a mortgage professional using Allan Dib's concepts to create a sustainable business to last for a long time. I am actually on my 2nd time listening to this book. It comes w/ great material to supplement the book like a "greatest headlines" list and a 1 page marketing plan guide which I am in the process of filling in. Even the 2nd time around I'm catching new tidbits I missed at first. This book actually got me excited to begin my marketing plan and Allad Dib has lead me in the right direction. He also offers his email address for questions afterward...awesome.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The 1-Page Marketing Plan?

One of the most memorable moments was when I was able to access the pdf with nine boxes which I fill in to complete my marketing plan. As I'm filling out this template, I feel like I'm touching on all facets needed to properly market my brand.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

It was short enough to listen to in one sitting but I had to break it up as I have a busy schedule

Any additional comments?

I'm currently picking up more copies for my Realtor Partners so we can work together and implement these strategies together.

Great Marketing Book

Solid information. Great read for anyone looking to improve marketing skills. Straight forward. Couldn't put it down once I started reading it. Go with the audio as well.

top ten business books I've listened to.

gave me a lot of great ideas to market my product. it covers the basics of marketing as well as some other aspects of business, but as they relate to marketing. it's not perfect but I found it extremely helpful. not just the content, but the pace and attitude are inspiring, but not by trying to be. they inspire because it comes from the authors real world experience... sorry no caps, my phone has issues.

If you only had one marketing book, get this one

This is an all-around excellent marketing planning primer, well written, funny, and to the point. The beginning starts slowly but builds. But that foundation is important, and by 1/3 the way in you are really getting to the meat and it keeps going from there. HIGHLY actionable, and good for the solo entrepreneur as well as the large corporate marketing person.
I'll be reading this at least once a year from now on and being sure to take action.

amazingly clear roadmap for marketers

If you are a business owner or marketing specialist, this is a great read/audiobook. I spend almost $1,000,000 a month advertising and still learned a lot from this book. Follow the plan. Amazing result await.

The Best

The best business and marketing book I've listened to so far and I've listened to a fair few! Great practical advice that will no doubt pay dividends for my business if I follow the steps (which I intend to do).

A book of two halves

The book is a very useful resource for any small business or start up and gives good all round advice. I would certainly recommend it for a listen. I found most of the content in the first half of the book with the second half being filled with anecdotes and examples of how not to run a business.

Essential book if you want to seriously boost your business

Very good listen and I will be buying the hard copy as my only criticism is no chapter titles on audible which may be picky but I much prefer books that include this as it makes it so much nicer to refer back over. Fantastic book though and so so valuable

Exceptional

What a great book. Every small business owner should read this and implement as much as possible as quick as possible. Whatever industry you are in the content is relevant and very educational!
