Book Reviews of Get Slightly Famous: Become a Celebrity in Your Field and Attract More Business with Less Effort, Second Edition
Book Review: great practical advice
Summary: 5 Stars
Get Slightly Famous is one of the best books on self-promotion that I have read. Steven Van Yoder provides practical advice that would benefit any person who wants to improve business or raise his or her public profile. While many books of this nature are disappointingly thin on substance, this book provides solid advice for building a career as an "expert." Book Review: Good Book - But Needs More Actions Steps
Summary: 3 Stars
This is strait forward to the point book using business examples on how and why getting famous can help you and your business. It provides lots of examples but could use more action steps on how to build your own celebrity.

Book Review: Practical, Must Have Advice for the Small Business
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to agree with all the positive comments on this book. I've been in medical device consulting for over 10 years, and have tried some of the ideas in Yoder's book already (due to common sense or other consultants' / books' recommendations). But I found much more suggestions here, together w/ updated web-based ideas which I'm now working on employing. I also value his many real-world examples interspersed throughout the book. This is one of only a few books (and I have most) that I'll be rereading to assist in marketing my consulting services. Book Review: Worth the price for the teleseminar tips alone
Summary: 5 Stars
Top notch. As a marketing consultant to independent professionals and small service busineses, I found this book to be outstanding. For example, the book describes how a new trend for professionals and consultants who want to woo and win new clients is to offer teleclasses, also known as telephone seminars or teleseminars. The book explains that having heard you speak, people feel they know you personally, and are more confident about hiring you. The advantages are abundant. You don't have to be personally present to give a talk that reaches your target market, says Van Yoder. Online chats and teleconferences, using your own or others' telephone lines, can help you reach a lot of people eager to hear your message. The book is filled with great advice like this.

Summary: 5 Stars
Steve has done an exceptional job of identifying the barriers most small businesses and private practices face whilst striving for success. This book outlines some key methods in developing a profile in your chosen field. Some very helpful tips on communicating with the media.
