Studies show that the average person sees 3,000 ads a day. Truth is, they ignore these ads. Your customers are fed up with traditional sales materials. They routinely tune out ads, junk mail, cold calls, and brochures. Customers want to make well-informed buying decisions, but they're overwhelmed. To cope, they desperately search for credible experts to help them make sense of this information overload. Credibility and trust have become priceless assets. CEOs and marketing executives must transform their company's image, becoming the industry experts that customers notice and seek out. Traditional sales materials can't create this perception-but publishing a book can. You must publish first, teach second, and sell third. It's the fastest and most effective way to establish credibility, build trust, and increase sales-in that order, because that's the sequence by which prospects buy. So it ought to be the sequence you use to market and sell. Bookmercial Marketing shows you how.

What separates the CEOs that run hyper-growth companies from those running slow-growth ones? What do they do differently that matters? Victor Cheng deconstructs the management practices used by fast growing technology companies and adapts these practices for use in other industries. While most business books tout one new big idea that will magically solve all your problems, Extreme Revenue Growth provides a refreshingly different and practical approach, combining many cross- functional practices to create a blueprint for explosive growth. The big secret to growth isn't getting your strategic planning, sales, marketing, R&amp;D, operations, or human resources right. The big "secret" is getting them all right at the same time. Optimize any one functional area for growth, and you get modest growth. Do it all at once, and you get a multiplier effect that triggers rapid growth. In Extreme Revenue Growth, you'll discover how.
