About this listen

Long before Shark Tank, there was Ron Popeil, the man who demonstrated products on the small screen with enthusiasm and a mega-watt smile. For five decades, the late-night, rapid-fire pitchman was a television staple, and virtually every corner of America knew who he was and bought in the millions the "indispensable" products he hawked. Here is the rags-to-riches story of Popeil, the man who sliced, diced, and julienned his way into our hearts and wallets— packed with hands-on, nuts-and-bolts guidance on how anyone with a product idea can make big money.

Critic Reviews

"Popeil provides remarkably detailed information on product innovation and effective marketing, along with many often overlooked details of patent law, copyright, FCC regulations, manufacture at home and abroad, pricing, order fulfillment, publicity and advertising. A behind-the-scenes, fun-to-read look at the basic American business of selling." (Publishers Weekly)
