I'm currently half way through reading the infamous book by Robert Cialdini. Heard about the book for quite a while and have read about the similar content in some of the other books I've purchased. Have also been to a seminar which taught about the content of this book.
But.... not until recently, something pushed me to pick up this book. And, yes!!! I'm now reading it and totally amazed even when I've already read book of similar kind and even been to a seminar covering the same information. The book is "The Psychology Influence of Persuasion". Currently, this book ranked #1 in my list of MUST READ book!!
So, I've decided to compile the top 10 books for maverick entrepreneurs. Here are my picks (some I've personally read it and some I've heard a lot about it but just wanted to pen it down so that I remembered to pick it up one day):
1. The Psychology Influence of Persuasion by Robert Cialdini
2. Scientific Advertising by Claude Hopkins
3. Tested Advertising Method by John Caples
4. How To Make Millions With Your Ideas: An Entrepreneur's Guide by Dan Kennedy
5. Magic Words That Bring Riches by Ted Kennedy
6. The No B.S. Time Management for Entrepreneurs by Dan Kennedy
7. Unlimited Power by Anthony Robbins
8. Mind Control Marketing by Mark Joyner
9. Think And Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
10. Breakthrough Advertising by Eugene Schwartz
I've no doubt that there are more books that I could list here. But as far as becoming an entrepreneur, and if I really have to pick one of the 3 most important skills such as 1) sales & marketing ; 2) management ; and 3) system implementation, I think "Sales & Marketing" ranked #1 and that's why the Top 10 Books I've recommended herein are on this particular topic.
I personally read all the comment on this blog. If you have any other books which you think falls into the Top 10 Books For Maverick Entrepreneurs or any life-changing books, please do share with us. We love to hear from you all.

12. Ogilvy On Advertising by David Ogilvy (a legendary classic book on Advertising, might just worth reading)
13. Triggers by Joe Sugarman
