Good Title On How To Network and Be Connected - |
Little Black Book of Connections: 6.5 Assets for Networking Your Way to Rich Relationships Review |
|
"Little Black Book of Connections" by Jeffrey Gitomer focuses on principles and strategies for networking your way toward personal and professional success.
Among the points covered include: 1. Giving value to others is a sure way to make great connections (think of others first). 2. 17 strategies and guidelines for making connections. 3. Tips on building relationships. 4. How to win prospects and contacts at networking events. 5. How to connect at various events. 6. How to be known by others. 7. Treat others with respect and dignity - even those who cannot benefit you. 8. Secrets to making connections. 9. When connecting with others, keep in mind that they have passions - figure out how to connect with them through their passions. 10. How to maintain meaningful long-term connections. In addition, throughout the book there are several examples of "GitBits" in which the reader goes to Gitomer's web site and enters a code to receive free information on various topics. The only really complaint I have is that Gitomer on several occasions uses four letter words to make a point. In my humble opinion, doing so is unnecessary - just state your point and let that stand on itself. There's no need to use saucy language to try to reinforce your point. Complaint aside, a good reference full of strategies for getting connected to others on your way to personal and professional success. Recommended. |

Basic Networking Self-help For The Aspiring Sales Professional -  |
Little Black Book of Connections: 6.5 Assets for Networking Your Way to Rich Relationships Review |
|
This book is a polarizing little volume. Note that the people who review this book who like it generally put one or more exclamation points in their review titles.
This thin little tome is basically a rehash of the concepts first espoused by Norman Vincent Peale's "How to Win Friends..." many years ago, jazzed up for the new millenium. Like others have mentioned, there is a bit of upsell pointing people to Gitomer's website, in many respects, it's a glossy infomercial. Nonetheless, chances are you'll see someone in a suit on an airplane eagerly devouring this book. Think of this little black book as basic networking self-help for the aspiring sales professional. |

Networking Your Way To The Obvious -  |
Little Black Book of Connections: 6.5 Assets for Networking Your Way to Rich Relationships Review |
|
This is more like a refresher course on things you already know but in a comical sort of way, think about this, at the very beginning of the book the author says "Personally, I can remember numbers from 40 years ago, but I can't remember numbers from yesterday", I immediately knew this thing was going to be of no value what so ever considering the nifty title he gave it. I personally did not find any new useful information here regarding how to connect/network with potential clients and certainly nothing I haven't tried already that came naturally or by applying common sense.
Giving the book the benefit of the doubt, decided to read the entire thing and found mostly, strategically place "Git-Bits" keywords throughout the book constantly leading you to Mr. Gitomer's website for additional info related to that keyword and of course.....you guess it, making you register so you can be pitched more of his questionable products through email newsletters, while also receiving actual pictures of him and his friends like they are family to you personally. They're connecting alright, It's a complete joke....lol. Keep in mind that during the entire time, you still looking to learn something about "connecting". I wouldn't be surprise to learn that these positive reviews are all coming from friends and family to help out, you'll feel very suspicious after reading this book. As to the topic at hand, the book is actually filled with his personal experiences for the most part, felt like he was regurgitating other notable authors in the process like Dale Cargenie comes to mind, but in reality, nothing here you haven't heard before, the goal here is to make you feel like it's all a sudden revelation, but in a gimmicky kind of way, not to mention the book looks and reads like a comic book, Also notice that people reading these bad reviews don't seem to find it useful, as you can tell, but beware, that may be a smokescreen to hide the fact that the book it's really awful. Conclusion: Save your money and try previewing it in your local library, not worth adding to your networking/sales resource library. Good Luck. |

Overrated... -  |
Little Black Book of Connections: 6.5 Assets for Networking Your Way to Rich Relationships Review |
|
As I was reading this book, i kept waiting to get some real value out of it. It just seemed to go on and on with no real direction or purpose. Ironic, since Gitomer says you need to offer value to others in order to connect. The repetition and lack of focus lead you to wonder if you actually learned anything at all after reading it. Actually, I was thinking that as I was reading it. Anyway, the book just keeps repeating itself and doesn't seem to go anywhere. Just read pages 25-31, the "Rules of Connecting", and you're finished. Nice packaging though... |
