One of my favorite books on marketing
This is an excellent book. It is short and to the point. I love his way of thinking about things, and there are tons of ideas in here on how to grow your business. Focuses on service businesses. I reread this every few months.

Very practical, realistic 'service' focused book
Harry Beckwith has a way of getting right down to the bottom line. My favorite chapter is: Marketing Is Not a Department! As a marketing consultant, it's my job to hlep my service business clients embrace the wholeness of marketing a service business.

Hints to make you think, reflect, and act
I read the book in 1999. What caught my attention was the product: service. I enjoyed and found I was not the only one who perceived focus groups and other instruments not working for the intended purpose. In 2000 I read the book again and created a list of ideas per chapter. I understood better the difference between a toothpaste product and a dentist service one. I am reading it again. This book makes one reflect and see things from a different perspective which promotes imagination and creativity in how to do marketing. It is short and down to the point the author wants the reader to pay attention to.
