Customer Reviews:

Selling is an ethical profession.......2006-01-24

The author presents the best thinking about selling. I liked this book for its very professional approach to customer satisfaction and segmentation rather than the link between number of cold calls and number of appointments. The CD does a great job of presenting the basic concepts of the book and is so sensible for those of us that are on the road so much of the time. Basic concept -- get referals by being a professional and dealing honestly with your customers.

Like no other sales book I've ever read.......2002-06-01

When I first read the philosophies in this book, I was excited and relieved. It was what I had always been looking for as a sales professional. Selling, with intention and integrity. I see all the ways that I got in my own way and sabotaged my own sales success. By implementing the insights in this book, I have already closed new business and am working smarter than ever before.

Account management for results.......2002-01-28

Many of the sales 'How to' books on the market are formula based and would like you to think selling was simply a matter of memorizing the right phrases and smiling at the right times. I found Mr. Cakey's book, Same Game, New Rules to be refreshing and from my experience exactly on target for developing the right thought processes for account management in today's fast paced and competitive marketplace. This isn't a book on just making a sale. It's about doing the right things for both your company and your customer. This means profit for your business (not just low margin sales revenue) and a customer that recognizes the 'value proposition' your organization brings over your competition. Logically organized and well written.

Same Game New Rules.......2001-05-16

From the very first time I picked up the book, it amazes me, how many of the points the author makes, that I was unintentionally guilty of actually commiting.

Initially, I was apprehensive to even speak to a suspect, prospect, or an existing client, until I finished reading the book at least once. I was fearful that if I had not, I may say or do something that would prove fatal to yet another sales call.

In all the years of education, self help books, seminars, and motivational speakers, I have finally found an author who hit the mark for me. Thanks Bill.

Book Description

If You're a Sales Professional . . . You are being hit with higher quotas, more responsibilities (more planning, project management, tracking of prospects and clients etc.,) and non-selling activities. That means when you're in front of your prospect, you have to be extra effective. Marketing departments aren't providing the leads they should, so it's left up to the sales team to generate their own leads. You must be part marketer, part relationship developer, part closer, and part CEO. You have your hands full with customers who want more for less and company people who still don't see the value you bring. You have it extra tough. We'll help.

If You're an Owner . . .

You are looking to get paid more for the value that you've created in your business. Yes, you can continue to put systems in place that deliver more value for your clients and customers, but you also must have a system which helps your people translate the value you've already built. If you have 100 units of value but your sales team is only able to translate 70% of that, then you will see selling cycles lengthen, discounting continue, and you will experience a general under-utilization of your sales asset—your sales force. Everything in this book is written with the intent of helping you and your people develop a strategy for translating or communicating your value in a manner that helps you get paid for that value in the marketplace.

Decent Book - Podcast is better.......2007-07-07

I've become a big fan of the authors Podcast which airs his views of how the modern high achieving sales person thinks and treats customers, prospects, and co-workers.

His basic view is that the most important driver of sales achievement is honesty, integrity, and non-coersive interpersonal behaviors and attitudes. Many of us have heard this over and over from our managers but when push came to shove and the end of the quarter far too many managers have pulled out every "trick" in the book to try and help them make the teams number.

I discovered the author's Podcast while searching through the iTunes store for items of interest to me. It is consistently helpful and informative and is presented in an entertaining way. It really is great.

I decided to buy the book in part because the author's Website promotes it heavily. I found the book to be "OK," but not great. It does contain the major themes of the Podcast but it isn't nearly as entertaining.

I'm a big fan of Mr. Caskey but I would recommend that you download iTunes and subscribe to his Podcast (Advanced Selling) and work on absorbing his unique take on selling. Remember that you don't need an iPod to use iTunes and the many free Podcasts... just download it and listen on your computer.

If you want to have something to read in addition to the Podcast this book does an adequate but not great job of presenting his principles.

Golden Rule selling........2005-05-27

As a consumer/buyer/shopper, this is how I want sales-people to treat me. As a self-employed compu-geek, even I can understand the principles taught in this book. Caskey obviously understands righteous principles of interaction between buyer and seller, approaches, problem solving, "pain" resolution, common sense, and the philosophy of buying-and-selling. There's some good philosophy in this book without being preachy or religious.

This book lets me know I was right all along about those pushy high-pressure salesmen that seemed to always turn me off. They don't have to be that way. You don't have to manipulate people into doing business with you.

Caskey presents a whole new mind-set and framework for sales-person/customer interaction, which not only gets the work done, but also makes it pleasant and smooth for all parties. And not only for sales-people, but for anyone who deals with the public or customers.

Just What a Small Business Needs.......1999-11-28

This book takes a VERY important topic - laying out an ownership agreement BEFORE any disputes arise - and makes it accessable to all of us non-lawyers. My business partner and I are working through this book and so far have found it easy to understand. The book provides all of the "legaleeze" you need to put your agreements into a binding buy-sell agreement (one that reflects YOUR choices for the agreement). Working through this has had a positive impact on my relationship with my business partner, because it increases trust in what the future will be like. I highly recommend this book to any business with more than one shareholder.

Unbelievable returns.......2001-04-12

I first heard Joel Cassaway over ten years ago in Orlando when he was a lecturer and investment trainer for a popular real estate seminar company. Joel packs a lot of information, is fun to listen to too and a excellent trainer.Joel discussed discounted mortgages. I followed his advice and netted a 150% return!What more can I say? This guy knows his stuff.

Book Description

Is restructuring an underhanded way to make the rich richer and the poor poorer? Or is it necessary, although bitter, medicine for an ailing economy?

In The Ethics of the New Economy: Restructuring and Beyond, professionals from the fields of philosophy, ethics, management, as well as those representing the groups affected by restructuring, tackle thorny ethical issues. Referring to concrete case studies, these timely essays discuss a variety of topics, including justified and unjustified restructuring; employers' obligations during the restructuring process; equity issues; the rise of part-time employment; the effects of restructuring on communities; the internal risks faced by restructuring corporations; deprofessionalization in health care; the consequences of restructuring in the developing world; philanthropy and cause-related marketing; corporate “judo” and restructuring; and responsible and irresponsible restructuring.

Customer Reviews:

Poorly Written Overview of tax heavens.......2006-01-11

I expected to get advice on the legality of establishing an offshore corporation. In particular, how to legally retain earnings inside the corporation.

Instead I got a very general review of many World Tax Heavens, a kind of information I could read on the internet for free.

The book is strewn over with useless bits of information. Do I really need to know the quality of beaches in the Bahamas?
Do not buy this book if you want useful guide to offshore copmany formation and tax planning.

Learn how wealthy american fleece the working stiff.......2003-11-28

I always get a couple of laughs when I see these 'tax haven' and 'offshore banking books' marketed to the general public as some sort of panacea for confiscatory taxation. As if some working stiff (like me) can swim up to the pool bar at the hotel in the Caymans and rub elbows with other 'tax refugees' and flip the bird to the IRS. GIVE ME A BREAK. This subject was a pet hobby of mine over the last 6 years and let me tell you that unless you are in the top 1% of income earning americans this book is useless to you. Unless you have a hundred thousand dollars you can blow in attorneys fees to set up your 'technically' legal International Business Corporation, and have a team of CPA's certifiy your tax returns 'assuring' the government that you 'really really' dont own the other 98% of your corporation you can not LEGALLY use the ideas contained in this book. If you wanted an explanation of how the international tax laws work, while at the same time how you could break the tax laws and hide and deposit money in a place like the Bahamas you can use this book. BUT, no matter what type of person you are, you ought to study tax havens for 5 years before you do anything, legal or otherwise.

You need five years to see that a good portion of the 'tax haven' world is nothing but an international racket filled with international con-men. While this book may be dedicated to Patrick Henry 'Give me Liberty and Give me Death' and the American resistance against BRitish Taxation, the persons and mostly corporations illustrated in this book do nothing but fleece the working stiff.

Reading between the lines, all the americans who had to leave the United States to live in these tax free jurisdictions did so because they broke a serious law and were facing jail time. Do you really think that when they got to Costa Rica they stopped operating their business. Between tax cheating felons, guys that welshed out on their spouses in divorce settlements, or people who were sued and are escaping judgments, the tax havens themselves are filled with criminals on the lam.

Case in point, this book mentions that American Doctors facing killer lawsuits often have bank accounts and monies in tax havens because they are judgment proof! Normally Doctors have this incredible thing called 'Malpractice Insurance' that pays out on claims. If a doctor is escaping a judgment it is because he did not carry malpracice insurance (that tells you about the doctor right there) OR the Doctor committed a serious crime, like a sexual battery, in the course of his professioal duties so that his insurance company disclaimed coverage. In either case I think the picture is clear. Remember OJ Simpson going to the Isle of Mann off of England during the murder trial ;)

Furthermore, over the past 5 years I have seen the IRS and Congress move steadily in the direction of stopping tax haven activity entirely. It is mentioned in this work that you cna get an offshore debit card that looks like a regular Visa or Mastercard. So in that manner you could spend your undeclared dividends and interest in the USA. Well that was great until the IRS subpoenad all the Mastercard accounts where the receipts were generated to credit networks set off in a few key areas. Now who do you think is going to be audited.

Furthermore, there have been some spectacular bank failures in these tax havens, and remember there is no FDIC. The oft touted bank secrecy laws in these countries are great until an enterpirsing government agency gets a back door plant in these institutions with Mr. Benjamin Franklin taking the lead.

Really, this book is the best on the subject of tax havens by far. In fact I think this is the only book that has a TECHNICALLY legal way for them to be used by a U.S. Citizen. The book is well written and appears to cover all the bases, but I assure you it does not. The book is similar somewhat to a prospecuts of a risky investment or tax shelter that a bunch of clever lawyers and accountants have come up with. Technical compliance with tax laws will most likely spare you criminal prosecution if you get called on it, but of course you can still be hit with civil penalties.

As an American you should be AWARE of the existence of this aspect of international finance. You should be aware that you have monetary escape routes in the event of disaster, and really, this book will open your eyes to a world 99% of america knows nothing about, but it is no 'everyone can do it' tax shelter. This is a corporate shell game, and I believe the recent Enron debacle involved the use of offshore vehicles to disguise losses and such, that fleeces the public. With sufficient thought, it is hypocrital in the first degree to think that by allowing corporate fat cats and high net worth individuals to park billions offshore and pay no taxes, we, the wroking public, are somehow 'getting back' at the IRS. The only person getting killed here is me. Nothing more.

I give this book 4 stars because it is the best book on the subject, and is a good read. While it is romantic and fun to imagine oneself parking millions of dollars into some royal bank in Monaco and relaxing by the pool for the rest of your life while you pay no taxes, this is a pipe dream a sales pitch of this, and other books like it.

Book Description

"Honest, shrewd, sentimental, resolute, American primitive," this is how the author characterizes President Coolidge. The storry of the Coolidge period, a stirring drama, hangs on the undramatis and slight figure of the man who dominated the era, and by his qualities rather than by his words or deeds gave it substance and direction.

Customer Reviews:

The biography of one of our greatest Presidents........2004-06-17

Ok, so Silent Cal was not one of our greatest Presidents. He was a very honest President, who had a very shy personality. White wrote this biography in the thirties, and knew Calvin. Even though White knew Coolidge, criticism is still present in this biography. The most damning was Coolidge not taking action to prevent the build up of credit and speculation in the stock market. All indications are there that he should have limited money at some point, but Coolidge let the market make its own correction. This was one of the reasons why the market went down so fast.
White does a good job of showing how someone like Coolidge (and Harding) rose to the top of the heap. Throughout this book, Coolidge is shown as an honest politician who lived off his salary. He even stayed in boarding houses when he was Governor and Vice President. He was very shy and limited his talking. He asked people to vote for him and they did. He only lost one election, so this shows people trusted him. He worked the political system for his constituents and his beliefs. Although conservative, he backed some very liberal ideas at the time including the vote for women and opposed anti immigration efforts against the Japanese. When he told people what he was going to do, people could trust he would do it. He even made fun of himself and his personality. His personal characteristics were very admirable.
White's biography is a bit dry at times, but the subject comes across in very human terms. The book is divided into four sections, so one can read bits and pieces of that history which may interest the reader. The first one hundred pages was slow going, but it gets better after that. For those interested in a President who governed for six years, this is a good read.

A mindwarp is right.......2007-10-16

As anyone can tell you, Going through depression turns your world upside down. The intention of this book is a "journey into the mind of a depressed person" and I think it succeeds. Its brutal, no holds barred honesty about living, wanting to die, and bouncing back. I hope for anyone going through depression, or has a family member going through it, this book will help provide insight and understanding.

Book Description

John Frederick never met a camera he didn't like, and the feeling was mutual. It's little wonder the actor with the sturdy physique and photogenic face was sought for roles in theater, motion pictures, and television - ranging from hero rancher to despicable villain and from Broadway baritone to movie Tarzan. He appeared in such films as The Ten Commandments, the Shoes of the Fisherman, Cleopatra, and as Lord of the Jungle in Tarzan Meets His Mate, and on television series such as Superman, Bonanza, Twilight Zone, Tales of Wells Fargo, Death Valley Days, and Playhouse 90 with Helen Hayes.

Frederick's autobiography, Name Droppings on Your Head, begins in rural Iowa where the starstruck farm boy sold his prize calf to fund a trip to Hollywood. The stardust remained in his eyes and the pull of the theater infused his blood. The adventure had begun.

Book Description

The silence of pain created havoc in my mind and sickness in my body Suicide is a non-fiction, based upon the experiences of a love in the life of a woman who seemed to have searched for love in the wrong place and at the wrong time. He was tall, handsome, intelligent and a definite ladies man. He was everything that she dreamed of. He had taken her heart with one look and she was ready to surrender all. This is a real and moving story of love and lost to a terrible fate, of suicide. Suicide is genuine and authentic, to those person's that suddenly find themselves in the middle of its horror; as if being caught up, in a tornado's wind storm, that had come, too soon. Suddenly, one finds him or herself standing, such as the old oak tree, statuesquely tall, durably solid and gallantly strong; after the tornado has past, never realizing that much damage has occurred, on the inside.
