Critic reviews

"When I read The New Rules for the first time, it was a 'eureka' moment for me at HubSpot. David nailed the fundamental shifts going on in the buyer-seller relationship and wrote the classic text to help marketers take advantage of them." (Brian Halligan, CEO, HubSpot, and coauthor of Inbound Marketing)

Interesting and inspirational

Very interesting content with fantastic reading (at some point the actor ended up laughing into the microphone instead of saying "haha"). Provides very concrete examples of what to do to accomplish the described ideas. Recommend to anybody interested in having any professional online presence.

Great Listen

I'm pretty internet savvy but this book brought up not only new ways of teaching people that I hadn't thought of, but added excellent insight into new ways of utilizing the methods I'm already taking advantage of. I'd recommend this book to anyone interested in marketing or reaching new audiences.
