hired Kenneth as a Business Consultant in 2010
“TM is a high breed consultancy whose goal is to increase authors’ book sales, increase speakers’ fees, and future advances on that NEXT book. They combine new media techniques, with the long term contacts and relationships with media and the book world to deliver results.
TM catapulted me and my books by taking a no nonsense approach to turn me into a media superstar. Ken Gillett is unique in the book marketing biz. He possess’ a self deprecating style, that endears him to his clients.
As important, Ken is well respected by the media, that as a client, I need to generate more revenue from my books and business opportunities. Journalists along with a TV producers and reporters are a finicky group, with egos bigger then any author and these people respond well to Ken’s style. In fact, I found that they revere him, as the non-publicist, but as an expert they rely on for the hottest authors. My book received the VIP treatment from morning show producers, and was considered hot, based on TM’s reputation for being discerning in the clients they accept. TM only accepts a limited client base ratio, which allows each client to receive individual attention. This was very important to me. Also, Ken was available to me at all times.
Big words, and fancy talk from egomaniacal consultant’s do not impress me, increased sales and higher speaking fees do. Simply put, Ken Gillett’s Target Marketing delivers just that. No nickel and diming over expenses and no bravado, just realistic results.
Remember if “the press” does not like your consultant, they will not respond to you.
Remember “viral marketing”, and “social networking” are words that very few people understand. TM gets tangible results, without annoying your audience base.
Writing a book is great. Selling a book is even better. Bottom line is TM generated the “buzz” that made bookstores promote my book, allowed a larger advance on my next book, made my speaking and keynotes fees double- all as a direct result of the performance of Target Marketing.
I consistently recommend TM to fellow authors, new and established. If you want to brand yourself, like a Suzie Orman, you want Target Marketing.
Best of all they are a smart team of people, well respected by the media elite and publishers, and most of all they are something that one does not find anymore: generous with their time, honest and nice.” July 28, 2010
