By John Chancellor "Mentor coach

The very important message of this book is there is a growing number of affluent, mass-affluent and super affluent consumers that are not confined by or do not let price be the major determining factor in their purchases.

Almost anyone selling products or services to the general public will benefit from the valuable lessons contained in this book.

The book is divided into three parts. Part one describes the affluent. Part two discusses what they spend money on and part three talks about how to get them to do business with you.

This is a typical Dan Kennedy no B. S. book. It is straightforward, full of great information and well written, a bit humorous at times. Dan also, as any great marketer would, provides some information about his own products. There is no point in letting this upset you. Learn from what he does.

The central theme of the book is that it is foolish to spend your time, money and energy struggling to get money from people who have very little of it. It is much more productive to concentrate on those where price is not necessarily a major issue.

Another lesson is the more affluent the customer, the more he is looking for expertise, relationship and most of all understand. He wants, actually demands respect. The quickest way to lose an affluent customer is to show disrespect for him and his position. They want and are willing to pay for respect and special privileges.

You need to make owning your product or using your service be of significance to the user. He wants to feel that he is gaining something exclusive.

Most business owner link price to product and feel they must try to justify the price based on the intrinsic value of the product. If you are going to sell for higher margins, you must cut the link between product and price. You do this by always discussing price in context - delivering what the customer values.

The book is a study in marketing. The biggest lessons in the book are that you must get out of your own mind and understand what the customer values. You are not your customer. Focus on the experience of the customer.

And if you are going to be successful in marketing, you must have a marketing system. Random acts of marketing are of little value.

A real education in marketing. There is also a valuable CD included with the book.
