How can you deploy today's new marketing tools to break through, build momentum, and gain recognition?

Real-world examples from companies such as Volcom, Ryanair, IBM, Viking, Adidas, Proctor & Gamble, and many others show you how to open meaningful interactions with your customers, develop authenticity, share recognition, and engage. Whether you're a marketer, communications expert, CEO, or business owner, you face the daunting challenge of marketing with your customers, not to them.

 Not very insightful November 1, 2008
J. T. Klepp (Sydney, Australia)
If you have not had any (or very little) exposure to digital marketing, by all means buy the book and read it. However, for anyone who has had some experience with digital marketing the last 5 years, this book offers very little new thinking (unless you are really bad at your job).
While the book is full of examples, if flows poorly. The author's points seem to get lost in a somewhat poor structure, and too many points thrown at the user without a proper flow to it. The author should definitely look into pyramid consulting techniques in order to present better. And given the author's savvy in online marketing, it does make me wonder whether the other reviews are legitimate.
But again, if you are a CEO, or non-marketing exec, or an "old school" marketer, this books seems like a useful intro to you. But you should be out reading Techcrunch, Marketing 2.0, Mobilemarketer, Mashable etc etc on a daily basis, and you would not only learn just as quick, you'd stay more current.
 Wonderful book! June 27, 2008
Berenice Ring (Sao Paulo, Brasil)
Very up-to-date book. Right on top of one of the most important Megatrends of 21st century, the empowerment of the people, Shiffman helps marketers to work with all this new media available these days.
It's worth every penny!
Great work June 2, 2008
Candace Quinn (Mclean, VA)
I couldn't put it down...I received it as a gift from a friend and fellow consultant. You have nailed the challenge, precisely and relevantly. I have translated the book to apply it to my work, Healthcare (largely hospital) marketing...and while Revolution Health goes a long way towards all you recommend, we providers need to run, not walk, to keep pace. Transparency driven by third parties who take our data and compare it to others, coupled with a more knowledgable and demanding purchaser (aging boomers), followed by a growing number of wired new users (who's having babies and raising young families..)...the tools and ideas you generate are EXACTLY what we need to consider as we try to reach these key audiences.
Thanks for the exercise!!!!
Superb book on Marketing Now! May 10, 2008
Maria Elena Duron (Midland, TX United States)
Excellent book on the evolution of marketing in our fast-paced, extremely connected world. It's taken old marketing concepts and shown their evolution along with the emergence of new marketing opportunities and challenges.
This is really the textbook for marketing now.
