Why Is It Called ¿The $50,000 Business Makeover Marathon¿?
After listening to this series and applying what I've learned I have a few reasons why master copywriter and business consultant Drew Eric Whitman selected the title.

Maybe it relates to the fact that I would have paid $50,000 to him and the 10 other experts that have literally super-charged my business and increased profits. And at that price, it would have been a steal.

Or maybe the $50,000 references what average business owners can add to their annual profits after listening. I know in my case, $50,000 would be a low estimate for the increase in business I expect over the course of the next year as a direct result of listening to this course.

Whatever the reasoning behind the title, in my opinion this is material that every person running or thinking of starting a business should own. It delivers essential business and marketing information (some of which I've never heard before but works almost like magic), and it spoon feeds it to you in such a way that you not only completely understand it, but you're excited and can't wait to start applying it to your business immediately.

I've had many nights where I've only grabbed a few eyefuls of sleep since owning this. But I want to thank Drew Eric for giving me the information and motivation to get in and do something that's responsible for literally putting more money in my pocket while making it fun.

Now you can learn jealously guarded business secrets
Who is this Drew Eric Whitman? And how can he help me?

Those were my thoughts as I read his captivating ad for The $50,000 Business Makeover Marathon. I was spell bound. And you will be too.

Being an adventureous sort, as all entrepeneurs are, I decided to take the plunge and purchase it. You know what? It was everything he said it would be, and more!

Drew, if you read this, thank you. We may never meet but you have changed my life and business.

After listening and putting into action many of the tips(lessons, really) I have seen an amazing change in my professional and personal affairs.

I own six other tape programs on sales and marketing and this one is unique. Get it now. While you're thinking about it.

Better hurry. Your competition may already have this.

Yours in Success,
...

Energetic, Interesting, Motivating, VALUABLE.
I confess to buying too many business tapes. I am also too often disappointed by the quality of the production as well the content.

THESE tapes, however, are fantastic. The speakers are all interesting to listen to - not boring. No fluff. Recorded in a studio, so you can ALWAYS hear the speakers. The topics will be valuable to any small to medium size busines owner or marketing executive who wants to expand and grow their business.

You may have heard SOME of this material before, but you haven't heard ALL of it -- and it's all in one powerful package.

IMHO, it's worth a listen -- again and again.

A Bataan veteran says "this is the way it was".
John Whitman brought to life Bataan as it really was. A thorough book which appeals to every Bataan survivor. Richard M. Gordon Major, US Army, Retired Adjutant, "Battling Bastards of Bataan".

The most definitive history of The Bataan Campaign ever!
This text provides a detailed account of the Bataan campaign.It appears to be the only such treatment of forgotten period of American military history. Other than the official accounts,this work appears to be the only exhaustive record todate of what was probably one of the most glorious accounts of the US. Army in action in any conflict. The author painstakingly accounts for all of the hardships,mistakes and heroics of the doomed Army of Bataan. This work has been long overdue and gives the reader great insight into the accomplishments,ingenuity,espirit and gallantry of The American and Phillipine soldiers stand in the face of impossible odds and abandoment in the early months of the Pacific War. Its hard not to read this and not be deeply touiched, it's equally hard not to read this work and ask the question why has The Bataan Campaign not received more favorable treatment by the American people, our historians and Hollywood? These soldiers deserve better!

Well Researched..Highly recommended..
One of the best books written about the Bataan Campaign. Whitman brings back to life the actual scenarios, heroes, and conditions during the Battle of Bataan. The book is focused mainly on the subject and Whitman was able to balance his work by citing information on the men and units that participated in one of the US Army's hard fought battles of the Second World War


Planet Plague (Star Wars: Galaxy of Fear, Book 3)

Good plot, and follows through the first three books.
I read this book of Spring 2,000.I realy didn't know what these books were going to be about until I read the first three. I started at eaten alive. it was a good book and had a good plot.Then, I read the second book, City of the Dead. It was very good and also had a good plot. After that, I was on the third book. It was a really cool book. I really liked the evil Shi'ido that pretended to be the doctor and friend of Uncle hoole. It also has some of the original characters like Wedge Antillies. John Whitman described the dense jungle, the old pyramids, and the green oozy blobs very well. As you read these three books and all of the star wars galaxy of fear books, each book makes sense. Like in planet plague, Zake got that sickness from dr. Evazen in book two. And in book three you the evil Shi'ido is really... in book four. I can't tell who it is becasue you have to read the books yourself. So, sit down for a couple a minuets and read a chapter or two. Me and my friend have read the first three books and we still talk to each other at school about what happened in the books. Well, that's all I have to say for now, but sit down and read these collections of books. It will take you on an adventure.

YUCK
Tash and zac are trapped on dogobia. with a blobs running around. Zac is sick while DR. KIVIA injectes a deadly virus into hoole and tash . Hang on to your pants as you go on a thrilling ride of your life in planet plague.

One of the best Star Wars books I have ever read
I've read Star Wars galaxy of fear no.2 and 3, although planet plague (no.3) was my personal favorite. It's about two kids named Tash and Zak who'se parents were destroyed on the planet Aldeeran by the evil Empire's Death Star. In Planet Plague, Tash, Zak, Uncle Hoole who is a mysterios Shi'ido, and DV9 (Deevee for short)fly to the planet Gobindi in thier newly-bought ship, the Shroud. The Gobindi culture suddenly and mysteriosly vanished from the galaxy, nobody knows why. When they landed they hurried Zak to the medical infirmary, called IBWD, meaning, Imperial Biological Welfare Division. At one of the computer terminals at the infirmary, Tash typed Starscream into the password enter, Starscream was an Imperial code for some secret plot by the Empire that she got a lot of information on from Forceflow, Forceflow was some person Tash had met over the Holonet. on the terminal, IBWD appeared on the screen, instead of Imperial Biological Welfare Division under it, said Imperial Biological Weapons Division. Near the end, Tash finds out that her Uncle Hoole's Friend, Dr. Kavafi is actaully another Shi'ido, the Shi'ido are shape-shifters, they can transform into anyone and anything in the Universe. The other Shi'ido was an imposter, secretly planning to flow a microscopic virus through the air this was unkown to Hoole, but eventuelly, Tash, Zak, Hoole, and Deevee stop the virus from harming anyone. And then they fly off into space.

The Power Of Radio
It's a misnomer to call this an audiobook, because it's something far more interesting. KnightFall is a a full scale radio play with sound effects, character readings and brilliant editting that surpasses even the fantastic National Public Radio production of Star Wars.
This book is brilliant and after listening to it, I felt more like I'd seen a really great movie than listened to an audiobook.
It's simply fantastic!

BATMAN: THE COMPLETE KNIGHTFALL SAGA
This full cast audio drama was originally released on BBC tapes. Michael Gough had reprised his role of Alfred from the recent movies. The story features the Joker, the Riddler, the Mad Hatter, and Knightwing.

Great First Novel...but
This is a wonderful first movel..and I can't wait to read Black Tide, but the author and/or his editors need to be a little more careful. In Dead Sand, the main character seems to be constantly changing his clothes because of copious sweating...enough with the sweat, already. Second, in this novel, the author twice refers to a police parking pass, the second time as if he were telling the reader for the first time. A little more attention to detail, please?

A Star (5, actually) is Born
"Dead Sand" is the first book by Dubois that I've read but it won't be the last. What a treat to stumble across a new-to-me mystery writer who is literate & conjures such believable characters, peopling a well-plotted book.

The author creates a real sense of place - a term much bandied about & often not really true. This one 'puts you there'. I highly recommend it.

Wonderful rose reference for northern gardeners
Not only is this book the best reference, but the only one that gives novices as well as the advanced growers the information on growing healthy roses in the colder zones. It classifies the different types of roses that can be grown well, how to plant them, prune them, maintain them, select them and where to buy them. If non-hardy hybrid teas are your choice, it has excellent pictures giving the step-by-step method of tipping roses for winter protection. Roses hardy for the north are all listed - the old garden roses up to the newly hybridized Canadian hardy roses. Anyone wanting to grow roses in the north needs this excellent reference!

If you live in the north you have to have this book!
The most valuable part of this book is the section that rates each rose. It gives a 1-5 star rating and a detailed description of the characteristics of that plant. It tells you why it deserved 5 stars or what is wrong with the rose so it didn't earn 5 stars! The other part of this book gives detailed and easy to understand tips on how to plant, feed, and protect your roses. The pictures are excellent and this is a hard book to put down. The author is obviously a lover of roses and not just a horticulturist!

Zak Tash and their uncle Hoole need a new ship. They land on Necropolis(city of the dead). Zak finaly meets a friend. But,will everything stay that way? I liked this book because I couldn't put it down to do something else.

If you like action and fun this is a great book to read, I got it mainly because I like Boba Fett and when I read I loved it. It's a great story about Zac and Tash and their Uncle Hoole go to a planet called Necropolis and how they get pretty mixed up with Boba and get into a bit of trouble.

A REAL page-turner!
I love Star Wars. When I first got into the whole Galaxy of Fear book series, I wasn't sure whether or not I would like it. I ordered it(book 4), not knowing what it was even about! But when I finally DID get around to reading it(which was about a month ago) I had a hard time putting it down each time, because it was soooooo interesting! And as I put it in as my review title: The Nightmare Machine is a real page-turner!

A Fascinating Ending
The ending of this book was so great that it couldn't get any better. On the last 30 pages, I couldn't stop reading. It even started to scare me. The Galaxy of Fear series is a great series that mixes in suspense with the story. I encourage anyone to read this book. It has a great plot, and is easy to read.

nightmare machine
I think this book was a good book. It was exiting and funny. I give it five stars becaus. It was about two people that go to a place called fun world. There is a ride called the nightmare machine. It scans your brain for your worst fear and shows it to but they find a few bugs in it and your fear comes true! If you liked this book you will like the next book.

Something you'll read again and again . . .
This book is a treasure to keep forever. On every page, a surprise awaits. However, I only gave it four stars instead of five. When Tash finally enters the "Jedi Library," the ghost roars at her to "GET OUT!". I do not like this line because many books and movies have that very same line. For example in the movie "The Shining," a character uses those very words. In other words, that line was lame. The line should have been in that same tone, I agree, but the actual words were . . . just too simple. Maybe John Whitman should have described the aura in the library a little more. Anyway, other than this part, the story was an excellent, well written piece.

Great plot twist
It was a very exciting book because it was a mystery and there were more than one murderers. I thought the character devolopment was very well done. The story was worked out very well and the plot had the a very interesting twist that occurred at the ending.

HELPPP
I can't belive what happined In this book . Uncle hoole and zak soposledly died from a haunted library that tash found . tash is devestasted . Forceflow is not who he is soposed to be . rent this book today.
