Unmarketing: Stop Marketing. Start Engaging. by Scott Stratten

3.0

Picked this up from the library to brush up on my marketing skills and to get some fresh ideas for building an author platform. As one of those oft-despised Millennials (albeit an old one born in '85), I pretty much instinctually knew all of this — but I expected that. I wanted to read it because sometimes you know something so intuitively that you can't explain it to other people, and therefore, you struggle to implement it. That's how I am with social media. It's easy for me, but not effortlessly easy.

Anyway, I picked up 3 key things (or reminded myself of 3 key things?) to look further into while skimming through this book today:
- Twellow Pages - need to see if this still exists
- Twitter Grader - same
- Is the old truism 'People need to see things 7 times in order to buy' really true?

Enquiring minds want to know.
