This book is great for anyone who is thinking about starting an online business, or about promoting an offline business on the internet. It really covers ALL the bases and is clearly organized and for this alone the book is a great investment. After all, online marketing can be very disorienting and this book does a fantastic job of laying out the playing field.
However, while it serves as a very useful overview, it is somewhat lacking in great detail which is my only gripe with the book, since it is called "mastering online marketing" and NOT "getting started with online marketing." I know the author is extremely knowledgeable but I wish he had given more specific details about the logistics and mechanics of the strategies presented.
And to be quite frank, I also find the book a little too self-promotional, since it talks at length about the author and his site and related projects. I don't mind a plug here or there, but at times the book reads more like a promotional tool than a self-contained how-to book.
Again, I'm not knocking this book, in fact, I have my sights set on reading Meyerson's previous work, "Success Secrets of the Online Marketing Superstars" -- so I think this author is giving us some valuable information, that I'm more than happy to absorb, and would not hesitate to recommend to others.
No doubt, Mastering Online Marketing is filled with useful information that beginners absolutely need to understand. However, for those of us with a little more experience, people seeking to "master" online marketing as the book's title suggests, this work falls a bit short of the mark. |
