The best thing that can happen to me as a Realtor. I have always wanted to learn about short sales but was always afraid to get into them because I heard it was a lot of work and dealing with the banks was not pleasant. This book has cleared my fear to do short sales. The author has written it so well He shares and guides you step by step from start to finish on how to do a successful short sale. There are also examples that are easy to understand, which is the best part. He tells you in detail how the process works and how to save time. I can not believe how well written this book is and easy to understand. No wonder Mr Kotler is successful he has the short sale process down pack. One will know once they read the book.

For the price of this book you are getting a lot more. I highly recommend this as a "must read" for realtors who want to make money and especially in this down market. It has changed my business in a GOOD way... Thank you Mr Kotler.

This book had way more than I expected about short sales. The author does a great job going into detail about every phase of the short sale process.
It's very easy to follow along so you know where to start with the short sale and where to end. I HIGHLY recommend this for all.

Abundant Information! The best short sale book I have read to date.

This book disclosed more information than any other book on short sales I have read. After having done a few short sales myself, I've been able to learn so much more from Yuli and actually convert that knowledge into more profit.

I especially like how Yuli discusses the different strategies of closing a short sale since many gurus out there claim that their way is the only way of closing short sales. He's clarified so many questions I had about the knitty gritty of short sales that no other author has done for me in the past. This is a must have book.

This book has me more fired up than I have been in a very long time! The information is so precise and easy to understand that I feel very comfortable and prepared to take on short sales instead of shying away from them due to lack of knowledge.
I'm just SO glad I bought this book while the market is ripe with short sales. I'm still kicking myself over not buying the book last year when I had tons of opportunities to deal with pre-foreclosures. It's too late for those, but I won't miss any more.
Thank god I invested a little into my education. I've been practically going out of business because I've been avoiding short sales. Not anymore! Now I know exactly what to do. All thanks to this book.

I have been in real estate a long time and read many books but nothing compares to this Short Sale book. Yuli goes into so much detail and has so much bonus material in the book its UNBELIEVABLE. Whereas every other short sale book just tells you the same information you can basically get from the bank for free, Yuli goes much further to the point where even veterans like myself are truly getting some new & VERY useful information out of this. The best part is he teaches you how to optimize your short sale system so that you don't have to do the work yourself. His methods are highly efficient and highly effective. There are no unnecessary steps or long drained out routines that take up all your time. He has perfected his system so well that any realtor or investor can truly do this part time and still make a full time salary. I've even been able to personally work with Yuli first hand and he truly is the real thing. By not buying this book, you will be literally throwing thousands of dollars out the window. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is even considering dealing with short sales and foreclosures.

On a rolling sea of sales self help books Mr. Kasper sails a true course for success.

Every other quick-fix, programmatic, book-based, step-by-step approach to selling is weak and at best enjoy a limited shelf life. If find that customers today are sophisticaed enough to know when they are receiving a canned approach and are better prepared than ever to resist the most common methods.

Mr. Kasper offers a grown-up approach. Inside this book you will not find a quick fix. You will find the universal and timeless keys to unlocking sales - sooner. This book works for any professional sales person selling any product or service.

Easy to read without talking down to the audience - and perfect for novices to career sales professionals. This is one to keep handy - for reinforcing Mr. Kaspers clearly defined and detailed message or for just in time reminders about how customers buy and how effective sales people get more business sooner.

As a business owner I HIGHLY recommend this book. If you are currently selling products and services in a market where the sales cycle tends to drag on, then Short Cycle Selling is a great resource in reducing this potential lenghty process. I found myself stopping to take notes as I read the book. I have already started to implement some of the ideas shared by Jim Kasper. He does a great job of taking you from the early stages (prospect) all the way through to getting a referral from your client.

Must read for large account selling and closing large deals
Helpful Votes: 2 out of 3 total.
Review Date: 2002-03-21
While there are hundreds of sales books only a handful deal with large accounts or the process of longer, more involved sales. Reducing the time it takes to get business and controlling the process instead of launching a proposal over the wall and then praying for a phone call is what this book is all about. May be the most important book on sales in a long time. A must read for anyone who sells to corporations, hospitals, or other sales that can't be closed in one meeting. This isn't a book about someone else's success or entertaining stories. The book explains a way of thinking and a process to control the sale in order to make more of them in a shorter period of time.

Short selling is an unorthodox, high risk investment strategy. But it also offers some of the highest potential for profits and hedge protection in bear markets. Unfortunately, there is too little information available to investors on short selling techniques.

I am fortunate enough to have read this excellent book. Although it is not the most up to date, the fundamentals of the market are still the same. I most highly recommend this book and the Art of Short Selling for anyone interested in this dynamic investment opportunity.

Good guide for risk takers.

Since I am a French woman who flies her plane, you can believe that I will take some risks. But the French are very careful with their money, so to learn these strategies of short-selling, a French woman, like me, must be guided along the way. This book is the way to find out about these important things to do with some of your moneys. I am very fortunate to know about these things better from this book.

This is one of those books that I enjoy more than my children. In particular, it offers a contrary voice to the advertising-is-bad concept that permeates a lot of writing about children. In this book, signs convey important information to consumers, to allow them to make informed decisions. By using signs, advertising can help family-run businesses more profitable.

"...Papa is a traveling salesman. He sells signs, neon signs, the ones that light up a shop, a street, a whole town. This summer I am his helper. Someday I'm going to sell signs, too." It's time to hit the road with this charming young lady and her likable, smooth-talking dad. Every morning, they pack their convertible with their new readerboard signs, drawings, and supplies and travel from small town to town, stopping at all the mom and pop businesses, Sophie's Diner, Kelly's Market, Hansen's Drugs, where a bright and inviting sign can make all the difference..... Michele Benoit Slawson's engaging text is filled with magic as it transports readers back in time for a ride with a traveling salesman. Bagram Ibatoulline's bold and colorful illustrations are rich in expressive, eye-catching detail. Together, word and art offer a captivating slice of 1950's small town Americana. Perfect for youngsters 4-8, Signs For Sale is a marvelous little gem of a book the whole family can read aloud and share, and a nostalgic peek at simpler, bygone times that shouldn't be missed.

Having recently started a career in network marketing I found the suggestions and exercises in Dr. Losee's book to be of tremendous help in focusing in on who I am and what possibilities exist for me. The practical advice coupled with real life examples set forth in the book clearly present a blueprint for the foundation of success.

The Case of the Top-Selling Author
Helpful Votes: 7 out of 7 total.
Review Date: 2004-07-27
Erle Stanley Garner was a self-taught author who kept detailed accounts of the development of his writing method. This collection of millions of notebooks, letters, memoranda, charts, lists, and even phrases are in a Collection at the University of Texas at Austin. The authors distilled these papers into a 286 page book that has a Bibliography and Index. The Foreword acknowledges the people who helped the authors.

Erle Stanley Gardner set a record for the 'Guinness Book of World Records' as the best selling author. Gardner had ten year's experience as a trial lawyer, intensive study and writing, a hyperactive personality, and an incredibly agile imagination. Gardner became the greatest writer of mystery fiction who ever lived, only being outsold worldwide by the Bible (p.14). Gardner dropped out of college, clerked for a law firm, and passed the California bar at 21. he learned the importance of keeping records. ESG was meticulous in the use of facts in his fiction, since Perry Mason was scrutinized by lawyers.

Gardner's first stories were to wood pulp magazines. Then for the slick magazines, movies, television. There was even a short-lived comic strip (p.189). Some called it 'escapist literature', but they always dealt with real-world troubles than made humdrum lives seem better off. Chapter 4 lists what could be learned from writing for the pulps. These magazines were always looking for new writers who could be paid lower rates (Chapter 5). Gardner paid a disabled veteran to solicit comments on stories (p.84); this feedback was used in writing stories. Gardner also analyzed stories for their appeal (p.89). 'A single man, unaided, overcomes difficulties by the power that is within him' describes a lot of popular fiction (p.90). Gardner's comments are still educational (pp.93-104). This explains why Perry Mason's clients must never be guilty (p.99). A mystery consists of a series of interesting events with sinister implications, the logic of which cannot be instantly comprehended (p.101). To improve production, Gardner bought one of the first electrical typewriter (a Woodstock), but later switched entirely to dictations machines (p.109). Chapter 8 describes his writing life.

The titles for Perry Mason novels usually came from the opening mystery, rather than from the principal plot. They were carefully chosen to attract readers (pp.193-4). When ESG was in 'financial straits' he developed a new series writing a 'A.A.Fair' with a new style. Page 202 tells how he planted evidence to support the existence of this author. [But the 'legal skulduggery' suggested ESG]. Gardner wrote books for readers, not for snobbish critics. Gardner would start with an incidental mystery to intrigue the reader and introduce the characters. Then the murder would occur; it would be result of basic human motivation. As in life, there would be conflicts and obstacle to goals. There were few murders from a sudden rush of anger or passion. The murderer would be found out once false stories and clues were found out; this was his mystery story. There would be some minor facts that wouldn't mesh with the cover story; this would lead to the solution. Appendix I lists his 'Fluid or Unstatic Theory of Plots'. The other Appendices show Gardner's organized method for dealing with plots. What could Gardner have done with a personal computer in place of his mechanical plotting device?

Selling America is an anthology of brief, inventive stories, all bound to the common theme of selling and buying. Each tale reflects a different aspect of America's modern product and consumerism-driven culture, with advertisements hidden under virtually every rock and tree, and deals made during every moment of life stretching from before birth to after death. At times darkly comic, at times tragic, always with biting insight into the relentless drive of materialism, Selling America is highly recommended.

I had been wanting to read this book for some time, and everytime I went looking for it, there were none left, until now! Sadly I have to say that it wasnt worth the wait. The stories were decent but somewhat predictable. However this was a fun quick read that I'm sure will please some.

The novellas in "Cream" are written by, T.N. Baker, Tu-Shonda Whitaker and Danielle Santiago. The reason I state the word "novellas" is because this book contains three short stories of different characters in totally different problems.

The first novel is "The Last Run" written by Tu-Shonda Whitaker. I was hoping more out of this story because I do like a couple of books by Tu-Shonda but this did not cut it for me. Although this story plot was decent, I was hoping for more action.
~The story is based upon characters "Bruh" and "Zion". Bruh has just come out of a two year bid in prison to come home to his sneaky baby mamma and her gorgeous best friend Zion. Bruh had always been attracted to Zion, but being as his baby mamma is her best friend he decides to lay low...but for how long? Read the novel "The Last Run" to find out whats "really" going on between Zion and Bruh and if she'll be able to stick around long enough for his "Last Run".

The novel "Fair Exchange, No Robberies" was written by Danielle Santiago. I will have to give it to her because I found this particular novel extremely interesting and un predictable. I am not a huge fan of Danielle Santiago, but I was suprised what came out of her with this short story.
~The story is based upon characters "Nicky" and "Lovi". Nicky is back home to New York and is up on his game with his lifetime friend "Dough" who is Lovi's older brother. Take this fast paced love story about Lovi and Nicky to see how long they can deny their feelings for each other and what will happen when Dough finds out his boy trying his only sister.

The novel "Rollin Dice" was written by T.N. Baker and I have to say that this story plot was original and exciting. I wasnt always a fan of T.N. Baker but by reading this novel, I will look forward to reading more of his work.
~The story is based upon characters "Wassuan" and "Enychi". Wassuan is a dice roller. He's one of the most cocky dice rollers in town. He uses his foul mouth to muster up people to "put up, or shut up" until one day, he runs into "Tone". Tone is just like Wassuan because his hustle is rollin dice, however, he is better at the game than Wassuan is. Tone and Wassuan play one game of dice and sadly, the loser may have bet more than just money.

This was a great quick read and entertaining in all aspects. I would love to see a sequel to these novellas. Its awesome how great these authors ended each chapter leaving you in suspense.
