Why is Red Bull so popular, though everyone—everyone!—hates the taste? Humans are, in a word, irrational, basing decisions as much on subtle external signals (that little blue can) as on objective qualities (flavor, price, quality). The surrounding world, meanwhile, is irreducibly complex and random. This means future success can’t be projected on any accounting spreadsheet. To strike gold, you must master the dark art and curious science of conjuring irresistible ideas: alchemy.

This Is Marketing shows you how to do work you're proud of, whether you're a tech start-up founder, a small-business owner, or part of a large corporation. Great marketers don't use consumers to solve their company's problem; they use marketing to solve other people's problems. Their tactics rely on empathy, connection, and emotional labor instead of attention-stealing ads. When done right, marketing seeks to make change in the world.

There are four characters in every story: the victim, the villain, the hero, and the guide. These four characters live inside us. If we play the victim, we’re doomed to fail. If we play the villain, we will not create genuine bonds. But if we play the hero or guide, our lives will flourish. The hard part is being self-aware enough to know which character we are playing. In this book, Donald will use his own experiences to help you recognize if the character you are currently surfacing is helping you experience a life of meaning.

Good for sales emails
Good book with info on sales funnels and the copy writing for your website. It’s very detailed so I’d say only listen if you’re ready to get into the thick of it. This isn’t a general education type book. It’s almost a workshop.

Great, as expected
The is the third book I have bought from Donald Miller, and as I expected, it was great. i am a small business owner and have been struggling for years to get people to follow my business, to limited success. i no longer have to rely in Hope Marketing. i am also helping my parents start small businesses as they transition into retirement, and I am now very confident that I will be able to help them to exceed all of their financial goals. Thanks for making Marketing digestible
