  • Brands, Bandwagons & Bullsh*t: How marketing, advertising, media and PR work – the essential guide for career planning and professional understanding.

    08

    Rory Sutherland, Vice Chairman at Ogilvy, said the following about ‘Brands, Bandwagons & Bullshit’: –

    “I noticed that this book ingeniously starts with a glossary – which was recommendation enough. But it gets even better from there on. I’m really enjoying it”.

    In marketing, it’s easy to get caught up in the hype – the latest channel, brand, agency or media outlet. Cutting the useful from the useless is a constant battle.

    Marketing, Advertising, PR and Media are all designed to sound awesome, but how can you possibly know which path is right for you without getting stuck in? You won’t know the facts until it’s too late – so the best thing to do is research what’s out there and make the most informed choices possible.

    ‘Brands, Bandwagons & Bullshit’ was written for two main audiences:- First, Students, Graduates and young marketing professionals looking to find their first job in marketing, advertising, media or PR . Second, it’s useful for an older demographic of those people who use marketing within their businesses but have no idea how it works (and are, by now, too afraid to ask).

    Marketing is never perfect. How could it be? Every second of every day, everything that helps inform your decisions changes. Trends disperse, media pivots, demographics shift, geographies imbalance, economies peak and trough, products fail, creative is subjective, Pandemics arrive and strategy’s a Rubik’s Cube of a conundrum.

    ‘Brands, Bandwagons & Bullshit’ was written using notes, hints and tips I’ve found valuable myself and it also contains snippets from several articles I’ve written for Marketing Week, Campaign and other magazines. The topics are wide ranging, broaching marketing strategy, brand strategy, campaign tactics and some of the pitfalls you may/ will encounter on your own journey.

    Part 1: Getting Started’ covers the things you might want to consider before you get your first job whilst ‘Part 2 – The Marketing Bit’ branches out into the strategy, tactics and campaigns that brands employ to give them an edge (or sometimes get it very, very wrong).

    This isn’t a ‘self-help’ book, nor does it profess to hold all the answers. Think of it less as a Sat Nav directing you to your ideal marketing career or a bible for perfect marketing and more like a shopping list to browse, extracting useful snippets at will.

    The baking of the cake is totally up to you, but hopefully you’ll pick up some useful directions and suggested ingredients over the coming pages to help you steer between the bullshit and the bandwagons.

The overt economic function of this appeal is to make us buy things. Its ideological function, however, is to involve us as ‘individuals’ in perpetuating the ideas which endorse the economic basis of our society. If it is economic conditions which make ideology necessary, it is ideology which makes those conditions seem necessary.

  • How To Make Better Advertising And Advertising Better: The Manifesto for a New Creative Revolution

    02
    “The ad industry is in an unprecedented state of confusion. While the assertions and pomposity grow majestically, the advertising itself diminishes rapidly. Sadly there is no button we can push that will erase all the arrogance and self-delusion. Fortunately we have this book. It might be just the reset button we all need.” Bob Hoffman

    Something is rotten in the state of advertising. CEOs and marketers tell us that working with agencies is painful and laborious. Agency people tell us they feel undervalued, overworked and stifled by poor processes. And the poor old punter is left faced with advertising that is at best forgettable, and at worst insulting to the intelligence. Surely Advertising can be better than this?

    “This book is full of common sense. Which is rare, so it’s actually full of uncommon sense.” Dave Trott

    How as a businessperson or marketer can you get the most out of your advertising budget?
    What to look for in an agency or the people you choose to work with?
    What can help your advertising rise above the mass of messages out there?
    What can advertising agencies do to improve the quality and effectiveness of their output?

    We were having a cup of tea and a chat one morning when we had the idea for this book. In our opinion, the quality and effectiveness of advertising in general is not good enough. We think the way businesses work with agencies and the way that agencies organise themselves and develop advertising needs to be improved. It’s time the advertising industry had a much-needed kick up the proverbial.

  • Persuasive Marketing: The use of NLP in Advertising & Marketing

    Persuasive Marketing an introduction to the use of NLP in
    Marketing & Advertising.

    Why do some advertising campaigns work and others fall flat?

    Behavioural Psychology demonstrates that we process marketing and advertising messages in the same way that we process interpersonal communication. This is because humans have built-in ‘fixed action patterns’ that produce
    consistent, predictable responses. These ‘fixed action patterns’ are unconscious hard-wired shortcuts that help us make decisions, behave or act more efficiently.

    Many of these ‘fixed action patterns’ are well known in Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and are used for creating rapid behavioural change. Perhaps it’s not suprising that these exact same patterns are used in marketing and advertising to increase acquisition, improve loyalty and reduce attrition.

    In effect these patterns make your audience more likely to behave in predictable ways.

    These patterns can be easily identified, measured and charted. This enables the effect of any form of advertising or marketing communication to be predicted.

    Persuasive Marketing will introduce you to these patterns and how to use them effectively.

  • Reality in Advertising

    01
    Rarely has a book about advertising created such a commotion as this brilliant account of the principles of successful advertising. Published in 1961, Reality in Advertising was listed for weeks on the general best-seller lists, and is today acknowledged to be advertising’s greatest classic. It has been translated into twelve languages-French, Japanese, Spanish, Dutch, German, Italian, Portuguese, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish, Hebrew-and has been published in twenty-one separate editions in fifteen countries. Leading business executives, and the advertising cognoscenti, hail it as “the best book for professionals that has ever come out of Madison Avenue.” (For typical comments see back of jacket.) Rosser Reeves says: “The book attempts to formulate certain theories of advertising, many quite new, and all based on 30 years of intensive research.” These theories, whose value has been proved in the marketplace, all revolve around the central concept that success in selling a product is the key criterion of advertising. In the course of explaining his own hard-headed approach, Mr. Reeves shows why the ad campaigns for many products are just so much money poured down the drain. He has some devastating things to say about advertising’s misguided men: the “aesthetes” and the “puffers” who put art and technique ahead of the client’s sales; and he punctures many of the misguided philosophies which lower the efficiency of advertising, rather than raising it. But even more important is the thoroughness and clarity with which he explains many of the mysteries of how to write advertising that produces these sales. Here, in short, is a concise, forcefully written guide that has been called “a ‘Rosetta Stone’ for the advertising business”- an essential book for anyone who works in advertising, or uses advertising extensively. It is today required reading in hundreds of great corporations and many of the world’s leading business schools.

  • Shoveling Smoke: Advertising and Globalization in Contemporary India

    A leading Bombay advertising agency justifies as traditionally Indian the highly eroticized images it produces to promote the KamaSutra condom brand. Another agency struggles to reconcile the global ambitions of a cellular-phone service provider with the ambivalently local connotations of the client’s corporate brand. When the dream of the 250 million-strong “Indian middle class” goes sour, Indian advertising and marketing professionals search for new ways to market “the Indian consumer”—now with added cultural difference—to multinational clients.

    An examination of the complex cultural politics of mass consumerism in a globalized marketplace, Shoveling Smoke is a pathbreaking and detailed ethnography of the contemporary Indian advertising industry. It is also a critical and innovative intervention into current theoretical debates on the intersection of consumerist globalization, aesthetic politics, and visual culture. William Mazzarella traces the rise in India during the 1980s of mass consumption as a self-consciously sensuous challenge to the austerities of state-led developmentalism. He shows how the decisive opening of Indian markets to foreign brands in the 1990s refigured established models of the relationship between the local and the global and, ironically, turned advertising professionals into custodians of cultural integrity.
