What does it take to be an incredible marketer, creating campaigns that move something from 'here' to 'there' so that it is noticed, believed, loved, and ultimately (and importantly) bought by customers – whether in business-to-business or business-to-consumer contexts? How does a marketer devise strategies to fulfil the 360° dreams, aspirations and objectives of an entire business? Is it through brand building, maintaining brand health and reputation, or effective storytelling? Is it about raising product/service awareness, pricing strategies, or the choice of promotional channels – whether above-the-line, below-the-line, or through digital and AI messaging? Or perhaps it's about delivering a message like, 'We hear you; let's build a sustainable future, together.' And how do you decide which aspect to market? Is it ... The product; The price; The place; The promotion; The people; The positioning; The process; The parable; The performance; The promise? OR, is it bits and pieces of all, or some, of the above? This book delves into these questions, providing insights and guidance for creating comprehensive marketing strategies that resonate and drive success. In The Book Every Marketer Should Read our authors examine aspects of the original '4Ps of Marketing' and transform this outdated 1960s framework into a dynamic, contemporary approach suited for the 21st century. Start reading and make notes on what you can implement today to become a marketing maestro.

This is the most practical marketing book you will ever read. It outlines a six-step process that will bring clarity to marketing like you’ve never experienced before. It’s literally a step-by-step guide to more leads, higher sales and a stronger brand. ​The first step is simply being a competent marketer. As the CEO of your organization, this should worry you: Your marketing team knows a lot less about marketing than they let on. And you can prove it in an instant. Ask them to explain the difference between the marketing mix and the promotional mix. It’s a basic question but surprisingly most marketers don’t know the answer. Imagine asking your accounting staff the difference between a balance sheet and an income statement and finding out you stumped them. Now consider this: You can maybe ring another 20% in sales out of your current customers, but that’s offset by the hole in your customer bucket. Real growth comes from new business development and you’ve entrusted a good share of that to a marketing team that can't define a basic marketing term. Not good. I suggest you buy a copy of this book for yourself first. I’ll show you the six steps of Strategically Aimed Marketing or the SAM 6® process for short. It will get you up to speed quickly. Then buy copies for your staff and have them integrate the process into your organization. If you are a marketing manager, writer, graphic designer or anyone else who has a hand in marketing, you should buy this book and beat your CEO to the punch. I’m not kidding when I say The CEO’s Guide to Marketing will make you the smartest marketer in the room. You are going to wish you had this book years ago. Lonny Kocina
