WHAT NOW? IMPORTANT NOTES Publisher’s Notes This book was first published in 1998. Although the information, help, tips and advice remain just as valid and helpful today, some things have changed. Prices, for example. And most of us have now probably heard of a company called Amazon! I’ve left the prices as they were - any changes made for this edition will just go out of date as well. Please do remember the date of the original book as you read this one though. Where possible, I’ve converted sales letters to plain text so that they will work in whatever formats and sizes you are using. Images have been used to display layouts, but the original detail has suffered in the conversion to ‘one size fits all’ ebooks. That’s the nature of the beasts, I’m afraid. So where relevant, I’ve also included the body copy text of the ads. I do hope you enjoy the book, it is one of my all-time favourite business references, and has certainly helped me along the way. Paul Hurst How To Use This Book To Grow Your Business This book is divided into five parts. Although I know you will be tempted to flick through it, and go straight to sections which apply to you most, you should, when you’ve finished flicking, read the whole book in order. Why? Because this information is most powerful only when you use it in combination. For instance, if you skipped right to Chapter 15: How To Out-Advertise Every One Of Your Competitors, without understanding the secrets of human-response found in Part 2, you’d miss out on the power of persuasion that enables you to write powerful ads. The book gives you—Part One: a revealing understanding of your business’s real potential to attract customers and generate wealth. Part Two: an understanding of human nature—the strategies and communication approaches that compel customers to respond to your sales message. Part Three: high-profit marketing techniques, methods and concepts you can use to rapidly build your business. Part Four: Cash generation—how to generate up to £10,000- £1,000,000 new business and cash, virtually overnight. Commit to applying the strategies in this book. They work! Here’s what I suggest: If your e-reader makes it possible, highlight every passage that is important to you as you read it. Tests have proven that when you highlight a passage, you absorb information two-three times more effectively. Second, take immediate action on each worthwhile strategy. That said, let’s move on... Introduction Growing your business is a SCIENTIFIC process. Contrary to most professional advice, the process of attracting buying customers to your door is uncomplicated, logical, and systematic. Fundamentally, you only need grasp one simple— but critical— principle, in order to build your business to almost any size and financial level you want. Nothing can stop your progress once you incorporate this foundational principle into every contact you have with customers and prospective customers. It is this: No matter what business you are in, you are really selling to the same customer as every other business: a PERSON! Think about it. Whether you are looking to buy a bar of soap, a washing machine, a car, a copper pipeline, a PC, a holiday, a.... book!, you want the same basic fulfilment from your purchase— benefits, results, and value for money. That’s all you care about as a customer. That’s all your customers care about when they buy from you.
