Marketing Above the Noise

Achieve Strategic Advantage with Marketing That Matters

De: Linda J. Popky

Narrado por: Karen Saltus

Marketing today is out of control. With all the new marketing techniques accessible to the masses, it's becoming harder and harder to stand out from the crowd. The result is more and more messages, hitting us more often in new and more intrusive ways. For customers, it's a lot of noise.

Through her work with a wide range of organizations from small companies to professional service providers to Fortune 500 companies, Linda Popky has developed Dynamic Market Leverage, an approach to help cut through the clutter, stand out, and effectively build business. What's needed is a timeless framework - a way of looking at marketing as tied to both business growth and the building and nurturing of ongoing customer engagement.

It's time to move the focus from social media and evangelists, sales and marketing alignment, and the latest hot cloud-based marketing tools, to what really counts: convincing customers to trust you with their business - not just once, but time and time again.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Because of the near infinite amount of information available on the web, buyers now have more information than sellers. It is a new world requiring smart marketers to educate and inform instead of interrupt and sell. Linda Popky shares strategies and tactics that work in this new environment and how to implement them to grow your business." (David Meerman Scott, best-selling author of 10 books, including The New Rules of Marketing and PR)

Drivel follows by some abortion cheerleading.

The writing is trite and the narration cannot cover for the weak "jokes" the author attempts. The worst part was how she decided to use the abortion issue as an example of damaging a brand. Really? How is this example in anyway useful in her explanation of how to market above the noise? It's a pure political example of how the left brought forces to bare on a decent charity because that charity didn't fall in lock step with planned parenthood. It was a character assassination. It had nothing to do with marketing. I heatd this "example" and the first thought I had was "really? Even in a book supposedly on getting back to basics on marketing this partisan couldn't keep her damn leftist ideology subdued for a second? It wasn't a good listen up to that point (kept waiting for something useful) but when she hit abortion I hit stop. Don't waste your time unless your clamoring for some left wing zingers.
