Techniques that marketing leaders from Coca Cola to L'Oreal use to break into and dominate consumer markets
Today's best marketing minds are in the consumer packaged goods industry, working with budgets of $100 million or more to sell the (physically) low-differentiation products we use every day. In Lessons from a Chief Marketing Officer, top CMO Bradford C. Kirk takes an inside look at this high-pressure world and shows you how the best marketers grab market share by understanding and speaking smartly to their most profitable consumers.
"Lessons from a Chief Marketing Officer is written by a real-life chief marketing officer. For twenty-two years, including eight as a chief marketing officer, I've been responsible for delivering share growth and capital-efficient profits. The lessons in this book are about what actually works on the front lines of marketing, not what could or should work . . . . "
Bradford C. Kirk, from the Preface
Knowing more and producing better numbers than the competition isn't just Bradford Kirk's job. It is, as with all successful marketing executives, his passion.
For more than two decades, Kirk has competed as a marketing executive in the rough-and-tumble packaged goods arena, developing marketing strategies for many of today's most recognizable consumer brands. He has spent that time learning how consumers think and how to make both retailers and consumers first take notice of a product and then buy it.
Lessons from a Chief Marketing Officer details what Kirk has learned. He discusses what CMOs must know to keep their brands and themselves on top, including:
Actual brand-name case studies, chapter-ending bullets summarizing major points, personal examples from Kirk's years on the frontlines, and more make Lessons from a Chief Marketing Officer one of today's most thorough marketing guidebooks. Far more than just a theoretical text, it is a hands-on road map on how marketers can create a permanent spot for their brands, both on cluttered store shelves and in the minds and purchasing habits of consumers.
Kirk hasn't just studied the rules of consumer products marketing; he has helped to write those rules. Let Lessons from a Chief Marketing Officer trim years from your learning curve with its tips and techniques for making consumers search out and buy your products, from the mind of someone who has devoted his professional life to doing exactly that.
