Customer Reviews

I still refer to this book almost 10 years after reading it

I think I've mentioned the pizza example about a hundred times since I read this book almost 10 years ago. Peppers is great at giving you real-world examples about how to better serve your target customer -- and thereby increase your sales. A classic.

A New Biz Master

This 256-page book by marketing guru Don Peppers is a jewel -- as the president of a public relations agency myself, I've read it three times word-for-word, drawing new inspiration (and hope) with each reading. His four chapters on Prospecting for New Business, particularly chapter 23 on "Prospect Management," would be invaluable for any salesperson -- and judging from the ham-handed salespeople who call on me, woefully few have read the subtle lessons of "Life's A Pitch"! Peppers' story of relentlessly pursuing the Reebok account for his ad agency, Levine Huntley, is a hoot. Next to Neil Flett's "Pitch Doctor," this is easily the best book on agency new business available. Bravo!

A must read for everyone in the Advertising business!

Don Peppers has provided an extremely useful tool for those in the Advertising business (and any kind of business). Life's a Pitch... is very informative and entertaining, as if Don himself was engaged in a personal conversation with the reader. I liked his style, as much as his content. This book is a must for anyone who works in business, especially in sales. I especially liked his chapter on presentations. Wether you are a student, a beginner or a pro, you should read Life's a Pitch... for useful and insightful information.

Resourceful, Educational, I loved it. A must read!

In Life's a Pitch, then you buy, Don educates you on his experiences. The more you read, the more you learn on dealing with similar situations in your own field. It is a quick read and a must read
