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: https://rebrand.ly/61249 (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.

Sales Scripts Swipe eBook

I have put together a 150+ page eBook that collates over 100+ famous ads by the likes of Kodak, Whitman’s Chocolates, Proctor And Gamble, Remington, Sears, Pears’ Soap, Cabots, Pabst Beer, Waterman’s Fountain Pens, Winchester Rifles, Quaker Oaks Etc… And I break down the copy of each ad into ad categories and then the elements that are used in each ad so you can see common denominators You can get your copy for $5 if you get it in the next 7 days: https://rebrand.ly/2f59a $5 won’t help me retire on a yacht, it is simply to make sure people value it!

Sales & Selling Challenge

I am running a 3-week, 1-task-per-day sales challenge. If you complete all tasks in the challenge, you will get at least 1 “sale” from someone new in those 3 weeks. More importantly, you will have everything set up to sell more people again-and-again after the challenge is over. What you will get is: 21 tasks and instructions, short training on how to complete the individual task and additional (but optional training) to consume that complement the main training. It’s $10 to join and you must register by midnight (Adelaide time) on Sunday 19 January 2020: https://rebrand.ly/0c5be. The challenge starts Monday 20 January 2020. And once this ship and sailed, you’ll need to find an alternative way to the next port. Sign up now while it is fresh in your mind.

Have a great week,

Orren Prunckun
