“For those on the fast track of modern business (The Shopper Marketing Revolution) is a must read.” – Paco Underhill (Author of “Why We Buy: The Science Of Shopping”)
The top 250 consumer goods companies turnover US$2.8 trillion – and yet, the industry is growing ever so slowly!
As growth declines, profit margins erode: leading players are caught in a perfect storm where the growth of mega-retailers, hyper competition, explosive increases in input costs, talent shortages and the declining effectiveness in traditional marketing methods all suck profits from a once vibrant and progressive industry. Add to this rapid changes in media, retail environments, and the rise of online, it is clear that what worked yesterday will not work tomorrow.
Industry thought leaders such as Herb Sorensen and Brian Harris see an “urgent” need for change.
In The Shopper Marketing Revolution, shopper marketing pioneers Toby Desforges and Mike Anthony analyze why the industry needs to change, and provide managers in the field with pragmatic advice and proven techniques that they need to revolutionize their business. Mike and Toby introduce The Five Step Total Marketing Model – an approach that creates coherent links between the end consumer and the in-store environment. Total Marketing enables marketers to adapt strategies and resources to respond effectively to new shopping behaviors and environments. It illustrates the fundamental principles that brands must embrace to survive in these challenging times.
The Shopper Marketing Revolution is now available on Amazon.
The Shopper Marketing Revolution will be: invaluable to the careers of very many of the marketing professionals in the industry, who can save themselves a lot of wheel spinning by studying the book to inform their own practice.
