Significant New Books
Essential Business Tactics for the Net, by Larry Chase and Eileen Shulock (Wiley, 2001) has gone through a complete revision. It was one of the early great buys for Web marketers. Now we get the benefit of all Larry Chase has learned in the interim. The book covers saving money inside your company via the Internet -- cutting costs, human resources, research, and corporate spying. Then it discusses the marketing uses of the Web: brand image, e-commerce, PR, direct marketing, and sales support. Great advice from sound practitioners!
Make Your Net Auction Sell! is the latest book from Ken Evoy's SiteSell enterprise. Author Sydney Johnston explains how to use auctions such as eBay to develop a thriving business. Explains the basics and pitfalls of the auction process, and then explains how to market your wares, polish your site, and build. Explains how to develop a profitable niche business using the auction medium. Practical, workable instruction. Dynamically priced, though at press time the book was selling for about US $36. http://sales.sitesell.com/mynas/
