The information in this book has turned keystrokes from my fingers, into millions of dollars in sales. Some of the concepts inside have been able to turn a poor man, into a rich man, by simply re-arranging some words on a page. This is an incredibly short book (about 54 pages) that you can read in one sitting. If this book gives you even one tip that increases the performance of your writing....(and keep in mind, writing is a skill you will keep your whole life)....then this will be a fantastic investment for yourself. This information is laid out in the same way I made my famous KopywritingKourse. The structure of that course just naturally taught people how to write better in a logical and fun way. This book is in the same format, except you can go over it anywhere (although watch the video KopywritingKourse for live examples). I invite you to spend 45 minutes with me reading this book. STEP 1.) Grab a beverage of your choice. I prefer a beer or tea when reading. STEP 2.) Grab a notepad and pen before starting (for notes) STEP 3.) Find a very comfortable place to sit and read this book. STEP 4.) Begin absorbing these mind-hacks and formulas laid out in the book....and apply them to your own writing. Enjoy the book, and please contact me if you have any questions before buying!Neville Medhora :: NevMed@gmail.com :: 713.301.1546

    The new way is to create truly innovative products and build the marketing right in. But how does a brand make the transition from old to new? According to advertising gurus Alex Bogusky and John Winsor, it starts with the realization that the message is not the product, the product is the message. In Baked-In, they offer a step-by-step guide on how brands can adapt and thrive in this brave new world. Using these tools, Bogusky and Winsor have successfully marketed some of today's most important brands, including Google, Nike, Microsoft, Patagonia, Toyota, and Burger King. They reveal how, through tools at hand -- product design, brand history, internal collaboration -- and the new tools of digital technology -- YouTube and the web in general -- companies can succeed in the 21st-century marketplace.

    But too often, even the most innovative organization quickly becomes a "giant hairball"--a tangled, impenetrable mass of rules, traditions, and systems, all based on what worked in the past--that exercises an inexorable pull into mediocrity. Gordon McKenzie worked at Hallmark Cards for thirty years, many of which he spent inspiring his colleagues to slip the bonds of Corporate Normalcy and rise to orbit--to a mode of dreaming, daring and doing above and beyond the rubber-stamp confines of the administrative mind-set. In his deeply funny book, exuberantly illustrated in full color, he shares the story of his own professional evolution, together with lessons on awakening and fostering creative genius.Originally self-published and already a business "cult classic", this personally empowering and entertaining look at the intersection between human creativity and the bottom line is now widely available to bookstores. It will be a must-read for any manager looking for new ways to invigorate employees, and any professional who wants to achieve his or her best, most self-expressive, most creative and fulfilling work.
