Give Me One Good Reason to Buy: How to Identify and Sell Your Unique Sizzle

In my review of the book

Attention: Make Irresistible Compelling Offers by Bob Oros

posted on Amazon.co.uk, I gave it 2 Stars.

Here is my review.

Not what I was after, it’s more about improving selling skills and getting the customer to listen to you

I bought this book because I believe “crafting offers” is an overlooking skill since phrasing the offer, “this is what you get for your money”, is the core of marketing.

The book turned out to be one of a series about improving your selling skills and the focus is very much on what you can say quickly to encourage the customer to listen to you.

It didn’t meet my needs or live up to its title “Attention: Make Irresistible Compelling Offers” although some may find it has some good points.

However this proved to be a disappointment because it wasn’t the book I was expecting from its title. [continue reading…]
