"Market This! has moved to my top 5 of must reads
for all entrepreneurs, writers, marketers,
consultants and anyone selling anything. It is
geared clearly towards small business owners,
although the lessons apply to businesses small and
large. Sherry takes marketing out of the
consultants' lingo and into the entrepereneurs'
hands. I read the whole book and did every exercise
in one weekend as I just was so excited. It really
helped me focus on where our weaknesses in marketing
are and helped me focus where to go. It is perfect
for entrepreneurs, writers with book proposals,
consultants, lawyers...the list goes on and on.
Thank you to Sherry for sharing her knowledge in a
simply and tangible way that helps ever entrepreneur
get going on a doable marketing plan for increased
revenue."

"Reading this book had a profound difference on how
I market myself. The best part was that the book was
easy to read, the exercises were bite-sized and
effective, and I actually got my plan together. I've
had my own business for years and I found the book
the best tool to get my marketing plan updated for
the new challenges with the economy. I've even done
a few of the exercises with my clients and it has
helped them make wise decisions on where to spend
their time and marketing dollars. It's a
must-have book for your bookshelf."
Vanessa Mikk

"Sherry does not just 'give a man a fish and feed
him for a day.' She teaches her readers 'how to
fish' by providing a framework for evaluating and
re-evaluating their business, helping them become
marketers for a lifetime. This book can be useful
for both well-established businesses and small
businesses. Sherry's methodical process enables
readers to take a step back to evaluate their
business - something most business owners/executives
could benefit from in this dynamic marketplace. I
have already recommended it to two small business
owners this week!"
Lia

"Sherry's book is an excellent, pragmatic tool. She
has distilled a very large subject into smaller,
crucial, real world, actionable steps. Whether this
is your first time putting together a written
marketing plan or you've done many before for
yourself or others, you'll find her advice and
twelve self-evaluation exercises invaluable. I
assumed I knew my customers but gained some very
useful insights working through Sherry's exercises.
These have helped me fine-tune my messaging. This
book couldn't have come at a better time for me
given today's economic challenges!"

book!"

“Most marketing books are
filled with mind-numbing jargon and ponderously
complex models....not this book. Writing with an
engaging straightforward style and offering useful
pragmatic exercises, Sherry Prescott-Willis shows
the reader how to create a high-impact,
customer-engaging marketing blueprint. Leaders of
often-ignored small businesses and start-ups will be
particularly pleased with this book.”

“I
have owned an award-winning marketing agency in
Silicon Valley for 20 years so I can honestly say
that Sherry has created a book (and program) that is
extremely valuable! Over the years I’ve consulted
with many startups and small business owners, and it
never ceases to amaze me how many of them have the
‘If I build it, they will come’ mentality. They pour
tons of money into creating their product or
service, but don’t put much time into creating a
marketing plan to promote it! Sherry’s
straightforward methodology takes the mystery out of
‘marketing’ to successfully build a brand, increase
sales, and generate awareness. Her book is a
must-read for any entrepreneur, in any industry,
getting ready to (or struggling to) launch their
business!”

“This book is great! It’s an essential tool for the
businessperson looking to make smarter marketing
decisions! I just used it for a consulting client I
have that is selling to big companies and it was a
great resource.”

“What’s important about this book is that the
real-life exercises presented really work for a
business. What Sherry has done is create a simple
and fun way to really get to those core elements
that every business owner needs to understand before
making necessary and often times tough marketing
decisions. She has set up a marketing platform for
success that is easy-to-understand and makes perfect
sense for anyone who wants to be great at marketing
their product or service.”
