User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars There is more to it that meets the eye
When I decided to start my own small business and self-publish several books, I quickly learned that I would be responsible for the promotion and marketing of my books. Immediately the idea of a low cost, cheap way of marketing would be e-mail!
How hard could it be? Get a list of potential customer’s e-mails, send them a regular e-mail newsletter and sell lots of books! Right.
There is a lot of stuff involved with e-mail marketing, including legal issues, that a self-publisher, or any other businessman, needs to know.
This book could have been a little more use friendly for non-tech people like me, but I am not completely sure that is possible. I am beginning to come to grips with the fact that I am eventually going to have to learn to speak “computer tech” if I plan to do business.

1 Stars Not so good
I am a bit dissapointed about about this book. I hoped for more technical advise how to write good e-mails. More do’s and don’ts but this book is mainly about how to convice an organisation that e-mail marketing is important. First chapters only keep saying it is underestimated…
