Michael Levine examines his with great wisdom and wit."--Dr. Jonas Salk, creator of the polio vaccine"Michael Levine has gifted the reader with aphorisms of wisdom, wit, and insight relevant to coping with the challenges of contemporary living."--Rabbi Harold M. Schulweis, author of For Those Who Can't Believe"Strong . . . clear . . . powerful. It makes you think and re-think. Filled with excitement, filled with passion, on the greatest adventure of all life."--Sidney Sheldon, author"Thank you for Lessons. Never think that a small action done to your neighbor is not worth much. It is not how much we do that is pleasing to God, but how much love we put into the doing. God bless you."--Mother Teresa, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize"Michael Levine is the proprietor of an active and considering mind. I find myself agreeing with almost all of his observations in Lessons at the Halfway Point and chuckling at even more of them. Wry, dry, skeptical . . . and right."--Charlton Heston, Academy Award-winning actorPraise for Guerilla P.R.:"Levine is one of the top P.R. folks in the world, and has represented major, major stars . . . Guerrilla P.R.'s subtitle is 'How you can arrange an effective publicity campaign without going broke.' They say it's gimmicky, but as Tom Peters says in the book, the gimmick is that it works . . . The stuff is very well done and true."--CNNPraise for The Address Book:"A gem . . . remarkable, thorough, and accurate."--USA Today"You are holding in your hands 'the almanac to the inaccessible.' "--People magazine Read more From the Back Cover "[Michael Levine is] one of Hollywood's brightest and most respected executives." --USA TodayCharm is good business. It can increase your income, improve your status, and establish and maintain your reputation. It can mean the difference, in many cases, between success and bankruptcy. Most businesspeople don't automatically understand the concept of charm. It ought to be a reflex to "turn on the charm" when dealing with customers, clients, associates, and employees. The value of charm has been made clear through opinion polls, scientific studies, and just plain old real life. It's true in politics. It's rare to hear Bill Clinton mentioned, for instance, without a comment following on his charm. And it's certainly true in entertainment, a whole business based on the money-making potential of charm. Charm is valuable for the small businessperson as well. It draws customers, whether to a garage, a dry cleaner, or an investment bank. Charm gets noticed. When a customer contacts a firm for the first time, charm can seal the deal. But charm is only partly innate. Much of it is learned - from your parents, from your friends, and from people like author Michael Levine, who have made a lifelong point of paying attention to charm. And you can learn how to make it work for you. How to succeed in business without really trying? Charming Your Way to the Top.

The author basically tells you to honestly be interested in the other person, to listen and treat them as if they are important to you. No where in the book does he say to use manipulation or dishonesty. There is nothing dishonest about caring about the people you do business with, making them know they are important to you nor in sending birthday cards. Wouldn't life be much better for us all if we did take the small extra effort to actually care about others and treat them as though they matter?One thing I liked alot was that he didn't name drop as another author on the subject does in "Never Eat Alone".In my sales as well as in life, I will use what I learned and should have been doing all along. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Entertaining and informative book! *by B***D on March 30, 2005* In his entertaining and informative book, CHARMING YOUR WAY TO THE TOP, Michael Levine defines charm as "the act of making the other person believe you care" . . . he then goes on to present countless examples of how this can be done in a wide variety of situations.Levine, who heads his own public relations firm, also mentions names of people who have and haven't used charm in their careers . . . my only regret is that he hadn't mentioned bothCary Grant and Adolph Hitler quite so much and instead had cited his actual clients more.Yet that said, I still liked CHARMING and got much out of it . . . you will, too . . . for example, here were just a few of the ideas that caught my attention:The most obvious way to ingratiate yourself to other people is to demonstrate interest in them. Women often complain that first dates are awful because the men they date rarely want to talk about anything but themselves. Listening as well as talking is a severely under-practiced skill and one that needs to be cultivated and used intelligently. It is simple and basic, but it is also true--we want people to listen to us.Light conversation is a skill and an art--it requires a little thought, and quick reactions. But it is not difficult and it is not dangerous. Asking people how their day is going is a simple and quick way to start a conversation, and-especially-to demonstrate that you are interested in them, in their feelings and problems, at least on a very limited basis. I'm not talking about the robotic "have-a-nice-day" kind of communication that is clearly rehearsed and insincere.In this case, the easiest thing at the dry cleaner, the supermarket, the restaurant, or the bookstore is simply to look the person behind the counter in the eye, smile, and ask, "How's your day going?"Also, using that technique [using someone's name] when leaving voice mail or telephone answering machine messages is a very telling, important point. Yes, identify yourself, but make sure you speak directly to the person for whom you're leaving the message, and use his name. It shows that even during unguarded moments you are thinking of someone other than yourself. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for Quarterlifers *by J***E on September 11, 2005* In an age of instant messaging, email, text messaging, pagers, palm pilots, and the Blackberry today's quarterlifers--people in their teens, twenties, and early thirties--often overlook the relationship behind the electronic communication.Michael has build one of Hollywood's most successful P.R. firms through his attention to those relationships. In Charming Your Way to the Top Michael has boiled down over 20 years of experience in working with our cultures most captivating celebrities and politicians into an approachable and practicle manual for bringing out the charisma in each of us.In many ways it's a back-to-the-basics book. The advice is not hard to follow, yet as Michael points out few people actually do it.I recommend Michaels book for anyone who has asked the question, "What is it about __________ that makes me like them so much?"Charming Your Way to the Top will help you find the answer. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/111631379-charming-your-way-to-the-top-hollywoods-premier-p-r](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/111631379-charming-your-way-to-the-top-hollywoods-premier-p-r) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
