P.T Barnum, the infamous showman, is probably best known for having said, "There's a sucker born every minute." But, as Joe Vitale reveals in his book, There's a Customer Born Every Minute, Barnum never actually spoke or wrote the line. He instead believed that a customer is born every minute and it was this philosophy that drove his commercial success.
In this completely updated and expanded edition of his book on the business pioneer, Joe Vitale identifies 10 key business practices that developed during Barnum's noteworthy career and suggests ways they might be adapted for effective use today. Originally published by Amacom in 1998, the book was promoted on national television, on an episode of A&E Biography, and sold out overnight. The new edition of There's a Customer Born Every Minute also includes rare material by and about Barnum that makes the book a long lasting collectible for all business people.
In this delightful and absorbing new edition, author
Joe Vitale reveals the true secrets to Barnum's success
and shares the ten key business practices that
Barnum developed during his career. Further, Vitale
shows entrepreneurs and business leaders how to
adapt these key business practices for today's fastpaced
business world. Exploring Barnum's genius
for making money, the book follows his careers as
newspaperman, politician, entrepreneur,
promoter, and founder of museums and
circuses-revealing all the business tactics he
used along the way.
Including rare material by and about Barnum,
such as ads, photos, letters, an exclusive indepth
interview with Barnum, and the entire
text to his famous speech "The Art of Money
Getting," There's a Customer Born Every
Minute is both a business resource packed
with true business wisdom, and a
fascinating look at the man himself.
