You
Can't Teach A Kid To Ride A Bike At A Seminar
David
Sandler
If you don't have $4,500 to take Sandler's
general selling course, you can get the new book that
reveals all.
Not that it's a substitute for our
newspaper-specific course, but it gives some great
tips on how to turn the tables on any sale and
get the customer to ask you for the sale. Find out more
about this book and buy it here.

Ogilvy
on Advertising
David
Ogilvy
Make your accounts think you've been
in the advertising business longer than you have, and
you might convince an account or two to get rid of that
ugly reverse or to increase their ad size big enough
to make the type legible.
"Ogilvy on Advertising" will give you instant
advertising experience. Though it deals with more branding-
based advertising than local advertising, it's full
of ways to increase response of your ads.

How
to Master the Art of Selling
Tom Hopkins
I brought my Newsday staff to his
live seminar which was a lot of hype and a little disappointing,
but his book is incredible. As far as providing
general sales techniques, the information in this book
rivals the best general sales courses I've taken (and
I've been through the best). Covers just about
every aspect of sales. I used to use it in staff
meetings and required every new salesperson to buy one.
A great book! Find out more about this book and
order it here.

Winning Ads For Real Estate
Steve Kennedy
To be honest, we haven't read this
one, but with so many ads you'd think that a few of
them would be worthy of incorporating into a spec ad
presentation to a current or potential real estate advertiser.
And with Amazon.com's return policy, you can always
send it back if it's not helpful. Find out more
about this book and order it here.

friends with stories about how the Internet has and
will continue to change the way people do business.

it might give you good ideas about what to do after
your newspaper stops publishing on paper. Some great
case studies. Find out more about this book and order
it here.
