Welcome to the Better Business Bookshelf!

I receive many emails asking which business books take up space on my personal bookshelf. Over the years I've amassed quite a collection, with a broad array of topics, depending on my own stage of business development at the time. 

Below are the books that I continue to reach for time and time again. Some are inexpensive print or ebooks, and some are comprehensive manuals that initially sound expensive, but deliver so much useful, applicable, profit-building information that they are actually real bargains for the price! I never recommend any books that I don't personally use, and those listed below get my personal endorsement as great business resources. They come with money-back guarantees from the sellers if you don't agree. 

I'll be updating this bookshelf as I find new helpful business-building resources, so feel free to bookmark this page for future updates.  

Business Operations and Development:

How To Make Your Business Run Without You
Susan M. Carter
Yes, this is a shameless plug for one of my own books! But, it does sit on my bookshelf, and I do refer to it often to keep my own business running at peak efficiency and profit!

Automate Your Web Business
Marlon Sanders
The ONE request I receive over and over and over again is for a course to show online entrepreneurs how to streamline their business operations the way my book and home study course show offline entrepreneurs how to do it. Thanks to this outstanding program produced by my colleague, and online marketing mentor, Marlon Sanders, that course is now available. It is a MUST HAVE. step-by-step systems-builder for anyone wanting to free up their time and pave the way for profits. For details CLICK HERE.
Rich Dad, Poor Dad
Robert T. Kiyosaki
Reviews for the Rich Dad, Poor Dad series of books and products are either wildly glowing, or harshly critical -- there is little in between. Despite criticism for being repetitive, Kiyosaki's story of his "two dads" offers enlightening lessons for aspiring entrepreneurs. This is not a how-to book; it is designed to simplify the "big picture" of building wealth, and give the reader an "aha" moment on how to do it. The lessons I learned from this, and other books in the series, were the catalyst for my own multi-business development success. For more information CLICK HERE.

Marketing:

SPLASH Marketing for Overworked Small Business Owners
Susan M. Carter
Yes, this is another of my books so I'm going to plug this one, too. There are hundreds of books about marketing, yet I've received countless emails thanking me for having developed a simple system that you create once, and use over and over again for repeatable results.

How To Be  A Kick-Butt Publicity Hound
Joan Stewart and Tom Antion
If you want to make publicity a major part of your marketing strategy, this is a how-to resource that will quickly become dog-eared, marked with sticky-backed notes, and peppered with countless, colorful, highlighted areas. It's delivered as an e-book, but I printed out my copy of the 300+ page manual because I refer to it so often. For a complete description, click here.  

The Small Business Marketing Bible
David Frey
This is another hefty, 300+ page masterpiece! If you have never heard of David Frey, I assure you that, once you read his marketing material, you'll never forget him. I have been a long-time subscriber to his e-zine, and when he finally published this book, I jumped at the chance to buy it. He's generous with his advice, specific about what you need to do, and doesn't seem to ever run out of ideas that he's more than willing to share with readers. To get a detailed description of this remarkable small business marketing book, click here.

The Amazing Formula
Marlon Sanders
By referral, I purchased The Amazing Formula 5 years ago when I started getting serious about finding a way to run an online business without losing my offline client base. And it was just the system I needed. To my surprise, this isn't the 'end all be all' for online marketing -- it is the 'end all be all' for marketing online AND offline! Like so many of you, I have my feet firmly planted in both worlds and dovetailing the two together can often be a daunting task. I've purchased many great resources, but whenever I start feeling overwhelmed with all of the information overload and different advice about what to do and how to do it, I reach for The Amazing Formula to put me back on track. It's my 'go to' guide. The 2006 edition is updated and unbeatable. At $67 bucks, it's a bargain investment for your business. And, if you buy it and don't agree, you have ONE FULL YEAR to return it for a full refund! Like other marketers, Marlon offers you bribes for trying the product, but I pay more attention to the testimonials. In fact you'll see one from David Frey (above) and, like me, David doesn't endorse ANYTHING that he doesn't fully support. It's just that good, and you owe it to yourself -- and your business -- to discover what it can do for you. Click here to learn more about The Amazing Formula.  

Online Marketing:

The Marketing Dashboard -- NEW!
Marlon Sanders
Once again, I am shouting accolades for Marlon Sanders and his ability to make sense of starting, running and marketing an online business. As you can see from the short list of "others products" recommended on this page, I don't give recommendations lightly. Marlon has earned his way onto this page by producing outstanding products that get right to the heart of what every business owner needs and shows you exactly what to do. And here's a perfect example of his online marketing genius:

I just learned about (and purchased) this easy-to-use marketing system (and you all know how much I love systems ...) designed for those who hate having to read big, bulky how-to manuals and want to point-and-click their way to action. This one product, in my opinion, will accelerate your online marketing success and catapult your business to new profit-producing heights. With an "I can't believe that's all it costs" price and a bunch of trial offers that let you prove the system to yourself before you spend another dime, this Marketing Dashboard is destined to set the standard for the future of Internet marketing how-to programs. Click here to learn about this incredible Internet marketing profit-booster. I highly recommend it.

 

The Insider Secrets to Marketing Your Business on the Internet 
Corey Rudl / Derek Gehl
