External Reviews
"Smart Retail is a good book for sampling major retailer's strategies for selling their products, whether it is a tangible good or a service. It covers all major areas of the selling process, from the paperwork, to the marketing of the product from inside the company as well as external sources, and working with your company to make sure everything is consistent.
At a list price of $25, it is an excellent value. Richard Hammond provides enough information to give readers a solid footing on each topic, and apply it to their own business in a way that is best for them. He reinforces this writing style by giving real world examples of strategic methods that companies have used to inspire ideas.
Three areas that this book can help incredibly in a company are the teams or product development, management, and marketing. Smart Retail allows these three teams to create synergy inside the company, and a seamless transaction with the customer. Lets be honest; in this economy, companies need to ahead of the competition to stay afloat. This book can help do so." - Amazon Review.
"Hammond deliberately points out that selling stuff is simple - but easy to do badly. And he proceeds to give pointers most of which are so brilliant that you slap your forehead and wonder how the hell you hadn't already worked that out." - Goodreads Review.
