You’re better able to determine which books need better marketing and can work with your publisher to improve things on that front. JULIA PRESTON (November 10, 2015). "Large Companies Game H-1B Visa Program, Costing the U.S. Jobs". The New York Times . Retrieved November 19, 2015. The answer was simple: Many of the visas are given out through a lottery, and a small number of giant global outsourcing companies had flooded the system with applications, significantly increasing their chances of success. While he had one application in last year's lottery and lost, one of the outsourcing companies applied for at least 14,000. It’s all fine and good to know your sales numbers, but there’s not much point unless you plan to do something with the information. Marketing

He also predicted the breakdown of international supply-chains, and further trade-war escalations. Chinas inevitable collapse (caused as much by aging as by mismanagement) will force manufacturing to home-shore (or 'friend-shore') more and more manufacturing. There is a lot of information and opinions within this book. No matter your political orientation, the author has succeeded in at least making you think. His arguments seemed well reasoned and invite to the reader, further investigation. Christopher N. Malagisi. "CBC Exclusive Author Interview with Michelle Malkin On Immigration".

To succeed online, you need to know which publishers, authors, and titles in your genre sold best there last month. Or last week. a b c Peter Slen (November 13, 2013). "Guest Worker Programs" (Video). C-SPAN Washington Journal . Retrieved November 20, 2015. Authors Michelle Malkin and John Miano talked about their book, Sold Out: How High-Tech Billionaires and Bipartisan Beltway Crapweasels are Screwing America's Best and Brightest Workers, and the current guest worker program. The worst thing about this invaluable collection of thoughts is that there are truths, but they are buried under a mountain of assumptions, incorrect interpretations, irrelevant numbers, and sometimes even "alternative facts". This men's mind is focused only on the economy, and there is NOTHING more important. Pandemics? Bad for the economy. Wars? Idiots, it's terrible for the economy!! Espionage? It's bad for the economy!! Women not having children? It's very, very bad, but it's worse for the future economy. Climate change? Joking, this one doesn't matter so much, but people who are climate 'alarmists' are bad for the economy!! The book confronts the perception of a STEM professional shortage, exposes the flawed economics supporting the perception, and cites findings that offshore outsourcing firms are the predominant users of high-skill temporary employment-visas. [2] [3] The book's publication follows media reporting that Pfizer, [4] Southern California Edison, [5] and Walt Disney World to name a few, have each forced hundreds of employees to train their foreign replacements or risk their severance, unemployment eligibility and professional references. [6] Additional studies cited conclude that a high percentage of qualified U.S. STEM professionals are unable to find employment in their field. [4] [7] Overview [ edit ]

Of course, it sounds as though you have to spend hours following this stuff, along with everything else we authors do. But it’s great to know it’s there. Reply Nielsen Book Research’s Philip Stone said that Osman was a “publishing phenomenon”. “In recent memory we’ve seen hugely successful titles inspire long-term trends within crime fiction – Stieg Larsson’s success leading to a boost for Nordic noir, Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train stimulating the market for psychological thrillers,” said Stone. “It will be interesting to see whether Osman’s success leads to a glut of cosy crime caper publishing.” This new book is an incredible compilation of nearly 900 vintage print advertisements sourced from the golden age of sneakers – the 1970s, '80s and '90s (with just a couple of earlier Converse campaign images, for added authority). The period is defined by the book's author Simon 'Woody' Wood​, editor-in-chief of Sneaker Freaker magazine, the world's leading authority on sneaker culture. Why stop at the year 2000 Well, "advertising from the 2000s onwards is simply too modern and too knowingly sophisticated for sentimental reflection," writes Woody in the book's introduction.

Soled Out by Sneaker Freaker | Waterstones

Excellent book about the breakdown of the supply chain, especially in the face of macroeconomic, geopolitical, energy, financial and political crisis. If you prefer, you can tell DVLA online that you’ve sold or transferred a vehicle yourself by using the 11-digit document reference number on the yellow slip (V5C/3). Full Book Name: Sold Out: How Broken Supply Chains, Surging Inflation, and Political Instability Will Sink the Global Economy The New York Times did not do a book review on this Malkin book, and they ignored her use of the term crapweasel in the plural on the cover. In 2009 they praised her first hardcover book. [17] See also [ edit ]It is quite clear the author is largely blinded by his extreme political ideology and, as a result, while some of his analyses might well be otherwise sound, his conclusions and recommendations are horribly flawed. The last chapters of the book involve monetary policy of the Fed and the increasing likelihood of deflation, along with some investment recommendations on behalf of the author. If Apple wants to manufacture in China and sell to the Chinese that’s fine, but they’ll be banned from the U.S. market and the markets of college members. The book is a truly satisfying read for sneaker collectors, but it's also great for followers of vintage graphic design, advertising, pop culture and playful ad copy. It proves that the pre-internet age wasn't an entirely innocent period; there's lots of inter-brand sniping, with knowing references to 'air' and 'just do it'.
