Insanely inspiring.

The narrator for David Hieatt's book is so easy to listen to. Every chapter gave me a huge 'aha' moment and I penned notes throughout. A rare and gripping 'how to' piece!

Basic

If you've never done ANY marketing this is the book for you. It'll tell you to have an email list (you know that as you're looking at the book) tell you to curate content, be interesting and know your market.

That's pretty much it. If you're already sending an email newsletter, you don't need this book. I'm not really sure who it's for. it's very very simple and filled with very basic information you could get from one well written blog post.

David Hieatt is a fabulous marketer, a philanthropic human who looks after his community. But this book? avoid
