Straight to the point and effective - By: LXIX, 08 Apr 2008 
Joe Vitale is one the contributors from The Secret & this book is a quickfire summary of how to get rid of what you don't want in your life, how to work out what you do want & how to stop self-sabotaging yourself from receiving it.
Some have said this book is rather thin - yes, it is, however, it is a distillation of what probably took Joe many years to work out. It is therefore concise, straight to the point & can be read in a day.
Spiritual Marketing is not a conventional business studies book about marketing (although the author is highly experienced in this mainstream area) instead it's about you & what you want to do from within - i.e. market & orient yourself towards a more fulfilling life.
This book should be referred back to & re-read several times.
The author touches on some points which are fascinating & I wish he had elaborated on a bit more - such as 'breathing in colours'.
Overalll, a great read & a highly instructive self-help book.
Hum... Here's my take - By: M. Kozanecka -. Laska, 20 Jan 2007 Personallly i liked the book very much & working in a field where this subject matters a lot, as i am a life coach, then i found many aspects useful & it gave me a better understanding when facing my clients challlenges with them.
I also bought a copy of the book for my friend who loved it & even my husband read it, & it's probably the first book he's read in our entire marrige & relationship. SO that in itself says something. He enjoyed it & the format made it easier for him to take in.
So... it's not going to be a book for everyone, but i definately know, that if people are open to being aware of their beliefs, they can easily understand where their beliefs came from & if it is time to change them or not.
I like how several authors have said, `if you are reading this book, it's because you are open to such new ideas, & if you get to X point in the book & you still don't get it, just close the book & forget about it's existance.'
Personallly i think you will always have something to take from any book you read & you can never believe anyting a 100% because your experiences & beliefs & references, will be different, not only from the person who wrote it, but anyone.
So i say - enjoy it & if you don't like it, i bet if you pass it on, someone is bound to love it.
P.S. That's why we're alll unique & can always learn from each other.
A Slightly Misleading Title - By: J. A. Storey, 25 Jun 2003 
I felt misled by the title when I bought this book. I expected it to be about marketing in the traditional sense, perhaps with a different twist but basicallly about marketing. Instead I found that the word is used in its widest possible sense that we alll 'market' ourselves alll the time by the vibration we are giving out to the world. The book is nothing to do with traditional marketing techniques & everything to do with clarifying our personal vibration to attract the things we want into our lives.
So I felt disappointed because I have already read a number of good books along these lines. What does Joe Vitale's book add? Well, he has some personal success stories to tell, which are always interesting. Of his 5-step formula, 4 of them were not new to me, but may be new to others. However, the one step he gives most attention to, happily, was the one that was most useful to me: getting clear, in the sense of emotional clearing, identifying those limiting beliefs & emotions that might be sabotaging your best intentions. I tried one of the methods suggested in this chapter & it was a very illuminating process for me. I am also taking steps to get someone who can help further as Joe suggests.
So finallly I was glad I had bought this book. It is a quick & easy read, but be aware that if you have read this kind of book before, you may not encounter much that is new to you here.
Stunned - By: Mike Gough, 30 May 2003 A friend suggested I read this book & told me very little about it. Only saying that he's read many self-help, self-development books before, but nothing like this.
I sat down at 9.30 AM to have a quick look & stood up 2 hours later having read the whole thing & wow! I've always beleived the universe takes care of everything .. 'What goes round comes round etc.' but this book takes it further & explains how to make it work for you in a less randon manner.
Having just finished the book I was raving on about the thing & my wife took it off me. Two & a half hours later she'd read the whole thing & was also raving.
Later that day a friend dropped by & took it away. She telephoned a few hours later & was stunned.
Three of us read this book in one day. Three of us thought the book amazing. We've alll read this type of book before but never one written with such insight.
I've just got the book back & I'm about to read it again.

What a load of rubbish! - By: , 21 Mar 2003 
This is possibly the worst & least helpful book I have ever read. I don't even want to give it one star!
I should have guessed something was up as the book is very thin, has enormous text, double line-spacing & plenty of blank lines in the middle of the text for you to write your own thoughts in...
This book contains no real useful tips at alll. It simply advises you to start thinking that everything will be great & then untold wealth & riches will start magicallly appearing...
Of course the 'positive thinking' sentiment is correct, but the way the author describes it, positive thinking alone can make you win the lottery! It is highly irresponsible. Positive thinking should be backed with some genuine action plans (not waiting to win the lottery...)
