I’d like to thank the American Marketing Association (AMA) for inviting my co-author, Mark Burgess, and myself to present our new marketing book last week at the 2020 summer conference. With the world changing as quickly as it is, both culturally and technologically, it’s more important than ever for all of us in the marketing community to have the resources we need.
What worked five years ago won’t work today. Instead, we need to know what the best businesses are doing right now to build undisruptable bonds with their customers.
Better yet, we need to know what those companies will be doing tomorrow.
If we can build a solid understanding of what’s coming down the road—AI marketing, big data, neuroscience, the next iteration of content marketing, and more—we’ll be in a position to lead our respective organizations into the future, with job security for years to come.
That’s why Mark and I wrote The New Marketing: How to Win in the Digital Age —to help today’s marketing professionals (and students) look ahead, as seen through the eyes of more than 50 leading thinkers and disruptors illuminate the first of its kind book. Here are just a few experts in our book:
- AI marketing executives at IBM
- Tech-led cultural intelligence experts at Omnicom’s sparks & honey
- Consumer neuroscientists at Nielsen
- Marketing executives at Audi
- Design thinkers at IDEO
- Behavioral economists at Yale
- Research experts at Shapiro+Raj
- Advertising executives at Microsoft
- Data scientists at Publicis
