[@RickKettner]

Looking for some of the best business strategy books? Here are seven of my favorites... kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXuQoYNsh9SXa8U

[@gdhshsjhdhdju2ueu]

I'm a marketing management student. I'll surely read the books

[@RickKettner]

Excellent!

[@lizreyes7252]

3 minutes and 38 seconds in- and I can already tell that this video provides much value to which book I should read next (going to listen while I do the dishes- hehe). I'm surprised that there aren't any Amazon affiliate links either! Definitely would have clicked on one to purchase a book :-).

[@RickKettner]

Ahh, I should add links to make it easier for people to find the books. Thank you for the suggestion!

[@lizreyes7252]

No problem!

Thank you for the kind words. I appreciate the support and am glad you're enjoying the content!

I'm currently living with my parents and I disturb them all day by telling what I read everyday . I think unknowingly it is a great way to remember what you read. And now I’m currently about 80% through "Playbook to Millions by Grant Cardone. I have read a lot of entrepreneurial books and self improvement books, and this book is my absolute favorite. This book is extraordinary and really gets you to work extremely hard toward your goals in life and succeed at multiple different areas like personal finance, business and career. This is an absolute must buy if you need a push to get you going in business or you want more out of life.

[@RickKettner]

Sounds like an interesting book. Glad it’s helping you take action towards your goals!

[@felixsupreme22]

Do you mean " the millionaire booklet?"

[@ronivangingoyon7778]

Hey Rick, your channel is a treasure. So much wisdom, insights and strategies. This is another level of marketing. Clear cut, strategic, technical and is deeply customer oriented. I love the fact that great emphasis is put on not just making a sale, but creating a long term relationship with your clients, even at the expense of a sure sale. Im buying The Language of Trust and Building A Storybrand! Thank you so much and more power to you. You deserve more subscribers! People are missing out

What mic are you using? Your voice sounds great. Really clear.

[@RickKettner]

It's a Shure SM7B. A great all-around mic, but you do need great pre-amps or something like a CloudLifter to compensate for it's lower output. I run the mic straight into a Sound Devices MixPre-6 with no CloudLifter and it works well.

Hei I really love to watch your videos. Currently I am doing my BBA in HRM. But I have some kind of interest on Marketing. Therefore, I am willing to learn marketing besides my HRM major. Also I'm planning to start online clothing business. Could you please tell me by which book I should start to learn marketing?

Hi, I'll do my best to recommend a relevant book. Do you have a marketing channel or strategy in mind? Who is your target audience and how do you plan to reach them?

[@mdsiam9687]

@@RickKettner Right now my target audience is young people who are tech-savvy and willing to buy things online. My strategy will be to sell products at the cheapest price than my competitors. Currently, I did a small survey among my social media friends and I got a good response. At this moment my planing to reach my customers through social media.

Hi rick sir i am currently preparing for a job in marketing can u please suggest me a book which has all the principles of marketing and selling or good strategies of advertisements etc.?? I am really confused as there are so many books. 🤔

[@RickKettner]

Hi Charu, what do you plan on focusing on with your new job? Marketing is a fairly broad topic, but I might be able to recommend a specific book based on a better understanding of what you're planning to do. Some examples might include: advertising, copywriting, social media marketing, content marketing, etc.

Another solid option is This Is Marketing by Seth Godin. But I would recommend getting clear on your business idea first.
