7 Marketing Books to Read

 

There is a great saying “The person who doesn’t read is no better off than the person who can’t read”. And a marketer who doesn’t read marketing books cannot be named the Marketer.

A lot of new marketing books appear every month and of course, many of them are quite worthless, but that doesn’t mean that every marketing book is that bad.

I personally try to read at least 2 marketing books per month to keep my mind charged with new knowledge or revise something I’ve learned before and need to give it another try.

I know that reading for many people is as painful as climbing a rock with someone sitting on their back, but once you try to schedule your reading, define some certain time per day to read at least 20-30 minutes, then you’ll see that you’re starting to get more fun and better results.

I’m not going to teach you how to start loving reading, I’m going to share with you 7 great marketing books that you have to read in 2019 to become a better marketer and implement some new marketing things into your business to increase your sales.
