Just Sell The Damn Thing: The proven, contrarian formula to GROW your business FASTER than ever Paperback – October 13, 2017

First off, lemme say that I'm a huge fan of irony, and one of the first lessons in this book is jam-packed full of irony. Doberman Dan demonstrates, very convincingly, that people don't take information seriously unless they've spent lots of money and energy to acquire it. He's right - I've got a copy of the Robert Collier Letter Book, widely considered a classic must-read for copywriters - and I haven't opened it, because I got it as a freebie.The irony is that I got this book for an introductory price of 99 cents, and that money came from a gift card I got for completing a survey - this book cost me almost nothing to acquire - but I'd consider it a bargain at a price of $99.99. So the irony of this situation is just the frosting on a very tasty .... well, it's not really a cake - this is more like a huge hunk of steak, packed full of protein and tasty, tasty meat for the carnivores among us.I'm only about 1/4 of the way through it, and the valuable information (and low-brow entertainment) that I've gotten from it so far are hugely valuable. I'll be revamping a sales offer I've been working on for weeks to take advantage of what Doberman reveals here. I didn't get this in the nick of time, I wish I'd had it to read a month ago.Don't waste any more of your valuable time working on methods that won't work in today's market - grab this, devour it, and put the ideas in it to use, right away. You will be glad that you did.

Disclosure: I've followed Dan's work for years and have been waiting for him to put his best ideas in a book. He's one of the very few marketing advisors I listen to and check in with regularly.When I got the book I opened it to a random page in the chapter on email marketing and immediately got 10x++ my investment back in 5 seconds. And I've been email marketing since 1994!This book is not for daydreamers or wishful thinkers who want "Three Easy Steps." It's for folks who have the drive to dig deep and learn the good, the bad, and the ugly about making money with direct response advertising. Books that are this brutally honest, based in reality, and helpful are incredibly rare.Dan's a master marketer in all mediums - online and off. His network of smart, experienced business owning friends is vast. He's one of the best copywriters in the business. He's run his own successful businesses that sell things other than marketing. advice. And he's brutally honest. When it comes to marketing this is the kind of person you want to get advice from.

All I can say is "WOW!"Seriously, I've owned an internet business for the last 13 years.The last 7 years, I've been semi-retired, working from home scarcely 4 hours a week...Needless to say, I've studied a bit of marketing, sales, copywriting and general business information, and for quite some time.I've spent a small fortune on the information overload I've dumped in my middle-aged brain.And quite a lot of it, I've paid a hefty, premium price for.Doberman Dan cuts right through all of the crap.From dispelling the myths of the hope-peddlers, kicking the hot air out of the "online gurus" (who will probably drown themselves in the infinity pools they leased when they find out how much real value Dan gives) and saving you from the painful process of spending $10k for a copywriter, or work, spending that much or more trying to become one with 2-3 of the hugely expensive courses out there...Dan, BOTTOM LINE, DELIVERS.If you can't see the value in this book within the first 20 pages, you really need to just go back to your dead end job and forget about being in business.Yes, succumb to the slow death of mediocrity.Because I've been around long enough to know that just a few pages of this book is going to triple my income in the next 6 months...and I'm barely over halfway through it.What's more, Dan has a school boy's wit that will keep you chuckling as you try not to drown from the firehose of marketing knowledge he's pouring straight down the gullet.I'm serious, you're going to bust a gut laughing, all the way to the bank.Don't be stupid. Buy the book.

I like the author’s attitude about business: Just sell the damn thing, whatever you have to offer, while relying on the solid principles of direct-response marketing.What I dislike is his bad sense of humor. I’m not offended, just annoyed.He tries too hard to present himself as some kind of simple Joe who likes to have a good time or some kind of rascally mad scientist. Yet nothing he says is shocking or funny to me.All in all, though, the book has good advice for anyone in marketing.

This book is a must read for direct response kiddos everywhere. DD was trained by one of the best and has achieved his direct response god-hood. Telling it like it is, he’ll help you skip all the marketing mumbo-jumbo and clutter peddled online and cut to what’s really important - finding BUYERS and then listening to and selling to those buyers over and over. No give-away freebie junkies here. Seriously, check this out and be enlightened and entertained.

DD sure knows what he's talking about. This week have been a great investment. This is what I love about books: its like having an expert on speed dial. And Dan's conversational style makes reading flow smooth. You could be drinking a cold beer while learning life changing concepts. Thanks for the experience Dan.
