4.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining, useful, but not very systematic and incomplete, 24 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Dig Your Well before You'RE Thirsty (Hardcover)
I enjoyed reading this book, although its excessive use of American slang can be tiresome to the non-American reader. Overall, the book is convincing and I plan to put some of its advice to work, so, I'm glad I bought it. However, its main drawback is that the book is unsystematic and does not address some very important issues, like what to do with unsatisfactory contacts. Despite Mackay's admitting he "cleans out" his Rolodex once a year, he does not explain on which criterion he does so. Furthermore, I'm not sure all his advice is applicable outside the US.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is Chocolate-covered Spinach, 20 Mar 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Dig Your Well before You'RE Thirsty (Hardcover)
Harvey MacKay has really struck home with the great book about networking. After only a day of blazing through this book, I found about a dozen or more NECESSARY! tips to write down. And this book is a fast and delectable read! It's not fair. How can a book that reads so easily and so well be so packed with essentials for conducting yourself on a day-to-day basis?

That's why I call this book Chocolate-covered Spinach. It's something indulgent wrapped around something necessary.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must read for anyone hoping to maximize life's opportunities, 1 Sep 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Dig Your Well before You'RE Thirsty (Hardcover)
"How many people could I realistically count on to help me if I called at 2:00 A.M.?" This is the question Harvey Mackay poses in his fourth book, Dig Your Well Before You're Thirsty. In the 300 pages that follow, Harvey Mackay shares a lifetime of networking tips with his readers. Mackay writes from experience, having established a successful envelope business and from years as an active fundraiser in Minneapolis. Written with humor and wit, Mackay shares anecdotes from the likes of Muhammad Ali, Lou Holtz, Erma Bombeck and Larry King. This book is a must read for corporate CEOs, middle managers, entry level workers, college students and anyone else who hopes to maximize life's opportunities.
