I read this book at a time when there was massive disruptions in business and personal space due to the Covid-19 pandemic and I can say that it was very impactful to me. The book was a gem as it facilitated timely change of mindset that I found very key in managing the unfamiliar times. The writer presents the insights in a conversational tone which makes reading fun and captivating at the same time. What I really enjoyed about the book is how she relates and links the different concepts in the chapters to the principles of Think Like a Marketer. Professionals and business people will definitely find this book to be a valuable asset.

This book is a must read for business owners, sales professionals, and managers of all types. This book is formatted to be either read from front to back or jump to the topic that is most pressing. Kate breaks down the why and how to achieve better relationships with current clients and how to attack more the the right client. This book should stay front and center on your shelf as a reference guide for best practices outlined, easy to understand and put into action; all while developing your marketing mindset.

surprisingly helpful!

I used to think of marketing as a necessary evil, much like raw vegetables. Good for you, tasteless, with a side of gag reflex. Kate’s book has me reconsidering this opinion (on marketing).

She made a case for marketing that lines up with my values, makes sense, and doesn’t feel overwhelming. I loved that she told me where to invest what to skip, what to look for, and her practical tips for being more strategic about customer interaction.

If I had one suggestion, it would be to incorporate more questions to help define a brands story.

Recommended for entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, writers, business owners, or anyone who needs to craft a public presence.

I'm an indie publisher and found this book very helpful. I'm a DIY and the insights in Kate Colbert's book will really help. Self publishing is 20% book 80% marketing and I hope to put what I learned from her book to good use. I only hope I read this in time. It's 3 months to publication, so if you are an entrepreneur or an authorpreneur, read this now so you can save yourself a lot of work. I'd like to see another just about publishing. Hint hint. Great book.
