The must-read summary of Al Ries and Jack Trout's book: "Bottom-Up Marketing: Building a Tactic into a Powerful Strategy". This complete summary of the ideas from Al Ries and Jack Trout's book "Bottom-Up Marketing" shows that traditional marketing is generally carried out top-down. That is, the senior manager decides on a strategy the company will follow and the middle managers decide on the tactics to achieve that strategy. However, this summary highlights that history’s most successful companies have invariably developed strategy from the bottom-up. In this method, the company first identifies a tactic that is delivering a sustainable competitive advantage in the minds of consumers. The company then focuses its resources on exploiting that tactic to the greatest possible degree by building the tactic into the company’s entire marketing strategy. Bottom-up marketing suggests that the best and most effective way to become a marketing strategist is to put your mind into your marketplace and to find inspiration where customers come into contact with your product or service. By immersing yourself in the tactics of whatever works in reality, you can develop a highly effective marketing strategy. Added-value of this summary: • Save time • Understand key concepts • Increase your business knowledge To learn more, read "Bottom-Up Marketing" and carry out your marketing strategies successfully.

#1 New York Times Bestseller Legendary venture capitalist John Doerr reveals how the goal-setting system of Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) has helped tech giants from Intel to Google achieve explosive growth—and how it can help any organization thrive. In the fall of 1999, John Doerr met with the founders of a start-up whom he'd just given $12.5 million, the biggest investment of his career. Larry Page and Sergey Brin had amazing technology, entrepreneurial energy, and sky-high ambitions, but no real business plan. For Google to change the world (or even to survive), Page and Brin had to learn how to make tough choices on priorities while keeping their team on track. They'd have to know when to pull the plug on losing propositions, to fail fast. And they needed timely, relevant data to track their progress—to measure what mattered. Doerr taught them about a proven approach to operating excellence: Objectives and Key Results. He had first discovered OKRs in the 1970s as an engineer at Intel, where the legendary Andy Grove ("the greatest manager of his or any era") drove the best-run company Doerr had ever seen. Later, as a venture capitalist, Doerr shared Grove's brainchild with more than fifty companies. Wherever the process was faithfully practiced, it worked. In this goal-setting system, objectives define what we seek to achieve; key results are how those top-priority goals will be attained with specific, measurable actions within a set time frame. Everyone's goals, from entry level to CEO, are transparent to the entire organization. The benefits are profound. OKRs surface an organization's most important work. They focus effort and foster coordination. They keep employees on track. They link objectives across silos to unify and strengthen the entire company. Along the way, OKRs enhance workplace satisfaction and boost retention. In Measure What Matters, Doerr shares a broad range of first-person, behind-the-scenes case studies, with narrators including Bono and Bill Gates, to demonstrate the focus, agility, and explosive growth that OKRs have spurred at so many great organizations. This book will help a new generation of leaders capture the same magic.

Strip out all the flash talk and pretty posters and you'll find that marketing is all about cash: either finding where it is and how to get a bigger share of it or spending it in an attempt to generate more of it. Both fairly hard, measurable, results driven functions. And yet for years, while other departments have been subjected to intense scrutiny on their contribution to shareholder value, marketing have been able to make jokes about not knowing which 50% of their work produced the results. Not any more, Marketing isn't a special case, it isn't different and it certainly isn't impossible to measure. It's an investment. Unless you can measure its impact, you're wasting your money. Here for the first time, is a book that explains the "why" as well as the "what" and the "how" of marketing metrics. "An excellent book; thoughtful and informative. It will open the minds of board members to the fact that marketing's value can and should be measured. The data produced is a vital indicator of a company's health." -Mike Mawtus, Vice President, IBM Euro Global Initiatives "I hate this book. It will only encourage the accountants." -Anne Moir, -Head of Marketing, Quadriga Worldwide "This book should be required reading for all board directors. It shows why marketing underpins shareholder value creation, and how marketing efectiveness should be measured and monitored." -Professor Peter Doyle, Warwick Business School
