Its by Ewen Chia, one of Singapore's internet marketing pioneer and guru. Personally, I don't like him, but I would agree that he has achieved results we all desire.

Tell us duski. In this book, does he tell the story of how he began, non-millionaire and all, and the obstacles he faced till he reached where he is today? If this book is more of a "how you can do it", and less of "how I did it", it would not be an interesting read to me.

I say this because I have read enough how to books to know "how to" in internet marketing. I want to see how others have applied this "how to" knowledge.

Yes, he shares his life story, and the days of his humble beginnings (i will not provide any spoilers here).

This book teaches others how they can do it. But basically he is teaching others how he did it too. That's because the steps that he provides in the book were the same steps he used.

I have not finished reading the whole book yet, so i can only tell you that as of now, i know what he did from the time he chose to get serious until the time he was almost ready to launch his website. once i have launched my website, i can move on to the next chapter.

Edit:
SSuF Admin, if you don't like him, i wouldn't recommend you to get his book lol. i say this because you don't have the right mindset and may not be as teachable as ppl who are open and willing to learn from him. however if you're interested you may wanna visit a bookstore and just flip open the book and read a few pages.

I may not like him, but it would be my loss if I closed my mind to knowledge or opportunity.

If as you say, he tells his story, from humble beginnings to present state, it make this book interesting to me.

I want to learn how others have applied the know how.

He only does internet marketing does he?

I've heard of him. If he is an internet marketer.... why is the book you linked us to, a physical product? Hard copy. Wouldn't he want to sell that book online too?

Adam Khoo and his business partner Stuart Tan have both ebooks and hard copy books. They both make money. The market for the hard copy books might not go online to look for such books. It's two different streams of income, so why not? Also, a physical book might interfere with some copyright laws, and product distribution plans.
