In fact after purchasing WoM Magic, I was a little disappointed that you did not "try to upsell me" - and I was eagerly anticipating your next product. You cannot imagine how pleased I was when you announced that you were starting this blog a little while back... after years of not hearing from you, that email reminded me immediately, who you were and the tremendous lesson I had learned from you: Incidentally, that lesson had nothing to do with Word of Mouth... it had to do with INTEGRITY! You don’t have to be a ruthless shark to be successful (in a “karmic” sense, that even works against you), you just have to know how to bring something useful and meaningful to people’s lives and use your sales skill to do that. As a result you will be rewarded for that - PLENTY.... Your post demonstrates once again why I felt an affinity to your work and the element of integrity that it displays... Keep on posting...
