Excellent Overview

This is a well written thorough book which is very up-to-date as of 2009 regarding internet and computer issues.

Wonderful Resource for All!

I bought this book after having my mail order business up and running for over a year. I was looking for inexpensive ways to market my company. This book provided that and more! This book is packed with excellent marketing tips, solutions to inventory and software issues, and examples from other successful mail order companies to let you see how others approached similar issues. I highly recommend this book to newbies or those that are looking to tweak their operations, both for its content and its amazing reference section at the end!

Excellent material

Great synopsis of a "how to" book. Not just general information but great functional tips along the way.
