About this listen

“Ries and Trout taught me everything I know about branding, marketing, and product management. When I had the idea of creating a very large thematic community on the Web, I first thought of Positioning.” (David Bohnett, chairman and founder of GeoCities)

An updated edition of the original 1981 text, this 20th-anniversary edition makes available to business and marketing professionals - including tens of thousands of Ries and Trout groupies, worldwide - the work that forever changed the way marketing strategy is done. This new edition features commentary from the authors that offers fresh insight into why “positioning” a product in a prospective customer's mind is still the most important strategy in business, and includes numerous examples of campaigns that followed, or didn't follow, Ries and Trout's thinking.

If you have a brand or a product read this book!

Positioning has been around for a long time and this update is excellent. If you own a company, run a company or I have a product that you want to bring to market successfully. There's no better book or place to start than Positioning. It will be the best four hours you spend on your brand.

The content is relevant to those who are marketing organizations and those who are marketing themselves.

I enjoyed the book over all, but particularly enjoyed the information regarding positioning a company and oneself.
