The Dead Sea Scrolls Of Marketing & Sales

I have packaged 17 foundational, classical marketing and sales texts on a convenient, slim, credit-card sized USB, called “Dead Sea Scrolls Of Marketing & Sales.” If you were to purchase all of these on Amazon Kindle individually it would cost you at least $73.19 (some you cannot even buy there) plus you get the 128MB credit card sized USB for FREE. You can get one for $5 here (Australia only.) I found them useful in my journey and I am sure you will also. The only catch is, I got 10 of these USBs printed from China as a test, so once they are gone, they are gone.

Have a great week,

Orren Prunckun
