Customer Reviews:
Great book.......2007-06-21
I have bought and read the book. And I can say that this book provides great insights to the reader. I recommend it to everybody who wants to gen involved in international business.
A Good Starting Point.......2007-04-20
I ordered this book knowing absolutely nothing about import/export. This book is great for novices. It does a fine job explaining the many facets of import and export. However, before attempting to start your own import/export business, you will need to do a lot more research. This book attempts to cover a great deal of info in just a few pages. Nelson's book is a great place to start your quest for import/export knowledge.
eeehhh!.......2006-12-22
It has alot of info and facts. But doesn't help you make any decisions. Read: "The Maui CEO" by John Tennant instead.
Good starter book.......2006-11-10
This is a very good starter book for anyone who is thinking about international trade.
Save your money and time.......2006-10-01
This book is a bit dated. There is no use for this book if you want to get into this business on a serious basis. Poor style, poor grammar and very poor content. The author devoted 75 pages on trade agreements such as NAFTA and the EU. You don't need to know the technical details of these agreements. You need to sell, sell and sell. This book is very bad. If you want a primer on the ins and outs buy get Exporting, Importing and Beyond. After that, buy Building an Import/Export Business by Weiss (this book gives you techniques that are absolutely useless but it is important to know this...so you don't do what he advises). You can round it off by buying How Small Business Trades Worldwide by John Wiley Spiers who gives a no-nonesense approach. Back to this book. Carl Nelson really needs to update this book to include E-bay and recommend Frontpage or Dreamweaver to create a Website instead of saying it is "easy" to use HTML. In this business, a website isn't necessary but it may be a good idea to have one if you want to market directly to consumers. Also, consider getting into this business by starting off as a Manufacturers representative (consider William H. Krause book on How to Get Started as a Manufacturer Representative) This book was plain AWFUL.

I found the bood to be very informative, and very easy to understand, unlike other law books on the matter. It was a short read, and a thorough introduction to international business transactions.

Customer Reviews:
Keep Customers for Life.......2007-08-23
I found this book to be really helpful because it is full of practical, common-sense ideas to help any business owner attract and keep loyal customers. Brad Sugars explains how to assemble effective newsletters, write "killer" headlines on ads, generate powerful offers, conduct effective "closed-door" sales, and how to move your prospects up your "ladder of loyalty" so that they become your Raving Fans. He also covers in detail the 6 steps to creating a successful loyalty strategy.
Instant Repeat Business.......2006-05-11
Instant Repeat Business explains the process through which entrepreneurs can grow their businesses by encouraging existing customers to return, thus reducing customer turnover rate and turning current customers into a business's most prized asset: Raving Fans.
Instant Repeat Business follows a narrative story starring an auto repair shop owner named Charlie. Through Sugars' advice, Charlie begins to take Action to move his existing customers through Sugars' "ladder of customer loyalty." The ultimate goal, explains Sugars, is to turn ordinary customers into Raving Fans who will help entrepreneurs to market their business to other potential customers. "There is no greater business asset," says Sugars, "than Raving Fans."
Instant Repeat Business.......2006-01-13
This is a great, easy to read book for businesses looking for ways to keep their loyal customer's coming back again and again.
Brad's down-to-earth writing style is easy to understand and he gives you simple strategies that anyone can implement in their business.

Book Description
One of the most pressing problems now facing commercial lawyers is to explain the principles which determine when a remedy is proprietary and when it is not. This book provides a broad overview of the subject. It examines representative business transactions which commonly give rise to legal or equitable interests in personal property. Its aim is to distil the fundamental principles understanding the relevant legal analyses. The result is to provide a more theoretically rigorous analytical framework for proprietary interests in personal property. The practical advantages of this are potentially twofold: new commercial transactions can be more effectively structured; in addtion, disputes between contracting parties can be more reliably resolved. Two features of the analysis are significant. The first is the elastic nature of proprietary interests in personal property. Although proprietary interests can be broadly classified as ownership or security interests, these are relative concepts which may be affected significantly by impinging contractual arrangements. The second feature is the necessary and intimate integration of law and equity. Equitable proprietary interests are remarkabldy prevalent; this prevalence is directly related to the apparent ease with which equity is able to convert particular personal obligations into proprietary interests.

Customer Reviews:
Excellent Primer, Not for The Detailed Practicioner.......2002-06-15
At a very high level, Krallinger hits the right points for someone totally unfamilliar with the territory. His bulletted writing style makes for quick, easy reading, but requires you to do the reflection on them later on. I sympathize with other reviewers who found this book pithy and shallow, but they may have been looking for a much more detailed tome. This book prepares the reader to recognize at a high level what the issues are and provides a framework for working through them. That's it. It was perfect for me -- I had one night to think of good things to say before making a presentation that included some M&A issues the next day. All I needed was to be able to identify the issues. For that this is an excellent book. If you really spend time to deconstruct the bullet points, it is probably more profound, and for better or worse, the author left that work to the reader instead of writing a 1,000 page book.
Let us be serious!.......2001-09-14
This book insults the intelligence of any reader who owns at least one neurone. It also insults other true books concerning mergers and acquisitions. The advices the book contains are like this: "Warning! Don't pay twice for a company. You pay once when you buy it, and you could pay twice if you need to restructure it". Please, pick your brains!
Merge This Book with a Trash Can.......2000-03-15
I had hoped to use this book as a training tool for my staff - - it's promoted as a guide to the process. However, after evaluating a copy, I believe the better course of action is to have them watch my six year old trade Pokemon cards. There is more logic and strategy behind his activity than in this entire book.
Total waste of paper........1998-09-24
This book is characterized by poor writing, sloppy reasoning, and shallow content. Look elsewhere unless you have too much time and money on your hands.
This book is a stinker!!.......1998-08-25
I struggled to read this diatribe on Mr. Krallinger's years of M&A experience. The author tries to layout the M&A process to the average business person. He provides an appendix full of checklists, a timeline, and some very common sense do's and don't's. The rest of the book is filled with the author's unsubstantiated assertions, poor economic thinking, and xenophobic biases.
I brought the book to better understand the M&A process from a gritty, in-the-trenches prospective, but walked away feeling that I wasted my time filtering out the author's failings to find a few good nuggets.
Don't waste your time and money on this one.
