The Review: A Closer Look
Pacific Book Review's evaluation
of 'Imposters On The Zoom!' highlights several key aspects that make it an essential read for B2B marketers:
If there is one feeling which many people around the world have had to deal with in their lives, it is imposter syndrome. That feeling of pure doubt, where a person feels as if they don’t belong in the job or situation which they are currently in. It is a natural feeling to contend with, and finding the means of overcoming that doubt and realizing they belong where they are is all part of the overall journey a person must face.
This is the sentiment authors John Buie and Jason Hagerman hope to bring to their readers in the book ‘Imposters on the Zoom!’: Your 90 Day, Step-by-Step Plan to Skyrocket Sales Leads and Overcome the Imposter Syndrome Stifling Your B2B Marketing and Sales Results. The book is an extensive guidebook on overcoming imposter syndrome working in the B2B industry. The book helps authors to face the ongoing challenges that B2B workers face in generating new and organic leads for sales, and through the techniques and challenges discussed in this book, readers should be able to generate more sales leads through a natural and evergreen system.
The authors did a remarkable job of crafting a straightforward yet entertaining guide for readers in the B2B market. The freestyle nature of the book which the authors establish early on, allowing readers to skip chapters and go to the sections of the book that best suit them, allowed this to be a truly interactive reading experience which gives readers the chance to fully engage with the exercises and guidance the authors established in the book. The personable way the authors wrote this book too is so great to read, as it allows readers to feel connected to the authors and their own experiences, and to identify with the types of workers the authors explored throughout the book.
This is the perfect read for those who enjoy non-fiction books. Specifically, this was the much-needed book in the life of the reader who enjoys business and money/career driven books. The way the authors were able to identify specific types of workers and the specific types of issues that they face, such as Claire the Creator, who works daily to create lead-generating materials for clients, allowed the reader to truly pick and follow a path that felt right to them and their own experiences in this field.
