Our June & July 2023 Book: The 1-Page Marketing Plan by Allan Dib

Hey Square Readers,

 

We’re getting close to the end of Start with Why by Simon Sinek, so it’s time to look at our next book. 


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

 

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

 

Here’s a quick summary:

“To 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.”

 

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 you’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!

 

We’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). 

 

Learn More about the Square Readers Book Club.

 

Check back here in June for our discussion posts.

 

We can’t wait to read with you!
