Hey Square Readers,

 

You voted, and you chose The 1-Page Marketing Plan by Allan Dib as our Square Readers Book Club book for June & July!


SRBC_The-1-Page-Marketing-Plan-June-2023.png

 

Hereโ€™s a quick summary:

โ€œTo build a successful business, you need to stop doing random acts of marketing and start following a reliable plan for rapid business growth. Traditionally, creating a marketing plan has been a difficult and time-consuming process, which is why it often doesn't get done. Whether you're just starting out or are an experienced entrepreneur, you'll discover: How to get new customers and how make more profit from existing ones; how to close sales without being pushy; how to make yourself the only logical choice; how to get amazing results on a small budget; how to charge high prices for your products and services and have customers actually thank you for it.โ€

 

We will start reading on Monday, June 5th, so get ready and pick up a copy at a local library, bookstore, Amazon, or anywhere else! Feel free to go for any version youโ€™d prefer: paper, digital, or audiobook (listening totally counts as reading too!).

 

You can join in at any time, new readers are always welcome. So get ready to dive into this book together!

 

Weโ€™ll have discussion threads being posted throughout the next two months, and a Live Video Chat Discussion on Tuesday July 25th at 4pm (Eastern US & CA). 

 

Get involved in these discussion posts:

 

We canโ€™t wait to read with you!
