Jesus was uniquely adept in the art of "reading" people. He fit his approach to the precise needs and interests of the person with whom he was dealing, and he spoke the cultural language of that individual. In this book, Robert Perry takes what Jesus and others have done intuitively-niche marketing-and provides a framework for applying those principles in everyday practice. Convinced that congregations can learn from the wisdom of secular disciplines and apply that wisdom to congregational life without damaging the integrity of the Christian faith, Perry offers a detailed process for using sound marketing principles to identify a congregation's strengths and the needs of its community, and to develop strategies for effective ministry.

The book that Inc. says "every entrepreneur should read" and an FT Book of the Month selection... How did the movie The Shawshank Redemption fail at the box office but go on to gross more than $100 million as a cult classic? How did The 48 Laws of Power miss the bestseller lists for more than a decade and still sell more than a million copies? How is Iron Maiden still filling stadiums worldwide without radio or TV exposure forty years after the band was founded? Bestselling author and marketer Ryan Holiday calls such works and artists perennial sellers. How do they endure and thrive while most books, movies, songs, video games, and pieces of art disappear quickly after initial success? How can we create and market creative works that achieve longevity? Holiday explores this mystery by drawing on his extensive experience working with businesses and creators such as Google, American Apparel, and the author John Grisham, as well as his interviews with the minds behind some of the greatest perennial sellers of our time. His fascinating examples include: • Rick Rubin, producer for Adele, Jay-Z, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, who teaches his artists to push past short-term thinking and root their work in long-term inspiration. • Tim Ferriss, whose books have sold millions of copies, in part because he rigorously tests every element of his work to see what generates the strongest response. • Seinfeld, which managed to capture both the essence of the nineties and timeless themes to become a modern classic. • Harper Lee, who transformed a muddled manuscript into To Kill a Mockingbird with the help of the right editor and feedback. • Winston Churchill, Stefan Zweig, and Lady Gaga, who each learned the essential tenets of building a platform of loyal, dedicated supporters. Holiday reveals that the key to success for many perennial sellers is that their creators don’t distinguish between the making and the marketing. The product’s purpose and audience are in the creator’s mind from day one. By thinking holistically about the relationship between their audience and their work, creators of all kinds improve the chances that their offerings will stand the test of time.

What is Affiliate Marketing? Affiliate marketing is a business model where you earn a commission by promoting third-party products or services. In essence, you become an "affiliate" who recommends products to your audience, and when a purchase is made through your affiliate link, you receive a percentage of the sale. How does affiliate marketing work? The process starts with choosing an affiliate program. These programs can be found on dedicated platforms like Amazon Associates ,ShareASale , or specific programs offered for individual businesses. Once you sign up, you receive a unique link that tracks sales generated through your recommendations. When a visitor clicks on your link and makes a purchase, the transaction is recorded, and the commission is credited to your account. This commission may vary depending on the program, product and agreed conditions. History and Evolution Affiliate marketing emerged in the late 90s with the growth of e-commerce. Over time, we have evolved to become a popular and effective strategy for businesses looking to expand their reach and for individuals looking to make money online. Today, affiliate marketing is one of the most accessible ways to generate passive income, thanks to the diversity of programs and tools available. Advantages of Affiliate Marketing Low Initial Cost : You don't need to create a product or manage inventory. All you need is to promote products. Flexibility : Work from anywhere and at any time. Affiliate marketing gives you freedom and independence. Passive Income Potential : Once your campaigns are defined, you can continue earning commissions while focusing on other projects. Conclusion Affiliate marketing is an attractive opportunity for anyone looking to enter the world of online business. With a low-risk model and potential for high returns, it's an effective way to monetize your knowledge and digital reach. In the next Chapters, we will explore how to choose a niche, find affiliate programs, and maximize your marketing strategies to achieve success in this field.
