<description><![CDATA[The new edition of this popular book has been updated to address the majority of new users for Google's tools -- more business-focused and less technical. The market for Google AdSense and AdWords has changed since the first edition of this book. Nearly every business with a web presence now uses the software, and while the tools are more sophisticated, users in general are less technically inclined. Rather than include more material aimed at programmers, the book's second edition focuses on business best practices for using these tools to help companies, large and small, generate revenu]]></description>

<description><![CDATA["Tough Times can be brought on by any number of factors: a down economy, Mother Nature, shifts in customers' needs, national tragedy - the list goes on and on. These types of changes can be extremely disruptive, even paralyzing, when we're not prepared for them. While many see no other option than to "sit tight" and "ride things out" when crisis strikes, true career professionals in selling understand that the only way to deal with adversity is to meet it head-on. That's why a positive attitude and a proactive approach to problem-solving are two of the most essential ingredients for success in selling - and why those who embrace them not only to survive but thrive, even in the most difficult of circumstances." "Now, in his latest book, Selling in Tough Times, world-renowned selling expert Tom Hopkins puts his real-world, in-the-trenches experience to work and shares his plan to reverse the momentum of tough times - and even capitalize on them. With exercises to help you discover previously overlooked opportunities and eliminate waste, along with out-of-the-box methods for recruiting new customers and key tips on how to solidify your existing business, Hopkins gives you powerful ways to spur sales now and for years to come"--Book jacket.]]></description>
