David Ross Reveals “Secrets of the List” in New Book

Secrets of the List, the first book from MusicRow founder David M. Ross, was released last week. The longtime techie delved into the world of e-mail and online marketing for the book, which is designed to help others master their customer email lists to grow their businesses and brands. Secrets of the List explains cutting-edge online marketing strategies, and how to profit by harnessing their power. Step by step he shows how companies big and small can communicate directly with customers and market themselves effectively and economically.

“This is not just about being on Facebook or sending out an occasional Tweet,” explains Ross. “It’s dedicated to helping entrepreneurs take advantage of digital marketing opportunities using email and social media.?? At the same time, you create a consumer army of dedicated brand supporters, invaluable for feedback as your company grows and considers new offerings. Networks like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube have become the online meeting places where friends gather, exchange news and talk about what’s on their minds. Looked at differently, these networks have become the most efficient word of mouth machine in the history of the world.”
