About this listen

Learn how to get your business oversubscribed in a crowded marketplace to make your business stand out and get people lining up to do business with you

Are you constantly chasing customers? Why does it seem like some businesses have their customers begging to purchase their goods or services? Think about it for a moment. When a new iPhone is released, why do customers camp overnight to be the first through the door? In cities with thousands of great restaurants, why do some restaurants require reservations months in advance? Why is it that some consultants, accountants, lawyers and healthcare professionals can charge exponentially more than others?

In the modern marketplace, consumer options are virtually endless, intense competition is rife and so much is given away for free online. Often businesses are left scrambling to attract enough customers to make a small profit. Yet the opposite is true for a small number of businesses that do things differently - customers chase them. They have buyers who gladly queue up, pay more, and eagerly wait for the chance to hand over their money for the next thing. How do these businesses do it? More importantly, how can you become one of them?

Oversubscribed is the guide to transforming your business into one which customers fight over! Author Daniel Priestley, a successful entrepreneur who has built and sold businesses around the world, shares proven, real-world methods that will not only grab customers’ attention, but will also have them lining up to buy from you. This invaluable guide will teach you how to drive demand for your products or services far beyond supply and will dramatically increase the success of your business. Now in its second edition, this updated version offers new insights and motivating examples that are right for the 2020s. This book will show you:

Oversubscribed offers a compelling reframe of how we think about selling. I found the ideas both practical and insightful.

The book lays out a clear, step-by-step method for generating genuine anticipation around your product or service before it hits the market—so that demand naturally exceeds supply.

It highlights the power of being transparent about capacity, demand, and availability, and shows how honesty builds trust rather than reducing sales.

One of the strongest takeaways is the emphasis on running your business on your terms. Instead of bending your core processes to fit every market request—often at the cost of clarity and efficiency—the book encourages setting clear expectations and communicating them confidently.

Above all, it stresses that delivering real value and crafting a delightful customer experience are the foundations of sustainable success.
