Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
Every industry around the globe is being completely disrupted. Stalwart brands are losing market share to upstarts that capture our collective consciousness. Trillions of dollars are at stake. Brands know a new approach is needed. But most don’t realize the strategic underpinnings need to change. Great brands are no longer built through interruptive advertisements. Friction argues that brands don't simply need clever messages or new, shiny technologies. They need a fundamental change in strategy. Friction provides a system for embracing transparency, engaging audiences, creating evangelists, and unleashing unprecedented growth. The authors of Friction have worked on some of the industry's most innovative assignments for the world’s most successful brands. This groundbreaking book reveals how corporations can divorce themselves from legacy business models to create a passion brand. A brand that breaks its addiction to traditional advertising. A brand that empowers its customers. A brand that dominates the competition.

Pages : 219
Book Description
There are a lot of great advertising books, but none that get down in the dirt with you quite like this one. Thomas Kemeny made a career at some of the best ad agencies in America. In this book he shows how he got in, how he's stayed in, and how you can do it too. He breaks apart how to write fun, smart, and effective copy-everything from headlines to scripts to experiential activations-giving readers a lesson on a language we all thought we already knew. This book is not a retrospective from some ad legend. It's a book that should be instantly useful for people starting out. A guide for the first few years at a place you'd actually want to work. Traditionally, advertising books have been written by people with established careers, big offices and letters like VP in their titles. They have stories from the old days when people could start in the mailroom. They are talented. That's been done. Who wants another book filled with seasoned wisdom? This is a book written by somebody still getting his bearings. Someone who has made an extraordinary number of errors in a still short career. Someone who has managed to hang onto his job despite these shortcomings.

Automating Humanity
Author: Joe Toscano
Publisher: powerHouse Books
ISBN: 1576879208
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Automating Humanity is the shocking and eye-opening new manifesto from international award-winning designer Joe Toscano that unravels and lays bare the power agendas of the world's greatest tech titans in plain language, and delivers a fair warning to policymakers, civilians, and industry professionals alike: we need a strategy for the future, and we need it now. Automating Humanity is an insider's perspective on everything Big Tech doesn't want the public to know-or think about-from the addictions installed on a global scale to the profits being driven by fake news and disinformation, to the way they're manipulating the world for profit and using our data to train systems that will automate jobs at an explosive, unprecedented scale. Toscano provides a critique of modern regulation, including parts of the new European Union's General Data Proctection Regulation (GDPR) suggesting how we can create proactive, adaptable regulation that satisfies both the needs of consumer safety and commercial success in the international economy. The content touches on everything from technology, economics, and public policy to psychology, history, and ethics, and is written in a way that is accessible to everyone from the average reader to the technical expert.

Let's Get Saucy
Author: Hannah Janish
Publisher: Handeeman LLC
ISBN: 1729564143
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
From Hannah: This book has over 55 sauce recipes that will change your life. For real, they will take a so-so dish and make it gold, Baby! I think it’s fair to say that sauce is one of the most important parts of a dish. Sauce is what brings everything and everyone together. No one just sits around eating wings, fries or tater tots without something on top of them. Sauces make dishes far more interesting. You would feel lost without something to dip your waffle fries into. What would you do without honey mustard? Well… plant-based honey mustard. A trio of simple chip dips makes it seem like you put some serious effort into something, even if it took you 5 minutes to make. Congratulations you are now the MVP of Super Bowl Sunday! If it weren’t for you, your spouse and friends would be sitting around eating Fritos while simultaneously screaming and throwing stale popcorn at the TV. That might make it fun for you to watch, but their beer filled bellies will scream for more substance. With so many choices you’ll find lots of recipes that will become new staples for you and your family. Love, Hannah
