This is one of the first e-marketing books I purchased when I entered the field in 1999 and it really gave me an invaluable education in online sales and marketing. Back in the days when sock puppets sold bags of dog food online (or tried to, anyway) and gerbils were fired from cannons, Ken Evoy had a very simple proposition: if you're going to have a website, you might as well sell something. Here's a step-by-step guide to selling that something. This book is filled with timeless tips, tricks and techniques that Ken himself has used to make money online, and he continues to use them today to sell products and to educate others. It's filled with advice on copy, pricing, positioning. guarantees... the tactics you need to know to be successful selling online. It doesn't have fancy graphics, just a lot of screenshots and practical know-how on making sure visitors to your site actually buy your products. Regardless of today's new sock puppets (blogs) or flying gerbils (Web 2.0), Ken's message is just as important today as it was in 1999: if you're going to have a website, you might as well sell something.
