How to Use News Releases, Blogs, Podcasting, Viral Marketing and Online Media to Reach Buyers Directly

The Internet has profoundly changed the way people communicate and interact with each other. It has also changed the way businesses communicate with current and potential customers. In the old days, marketers could only communicate through the filter of expensive advertising or media ink placed by a PR firm. Today, the rules have changed entirely.

The New Rules of Marketing and PR shows you how to leverage the potential that Web-based communication offers large and small companies, nonprofits, entrepreneurs, political organizations, consultants, even rock bands and churches. Finally, you can speak directly to customers and buyers, establishing a personal link with those who make your business work. You can reach niche buyers with targeted messages that cost a fraction of your big-budget advertising campaign. Rather than bombard them with advertising they'll likely ignore, you can focus on getting the right message to the right people at the right time.

Marketing directors, brand managers, ad execs and public relations directors are in for a real treat. I was. I finally found a marketing genius with whom I could agree. There were literally points over the last 4 years where I thought, I was crazy. My advertising colleagues said I was crazy, as I unraveled the mystery of what David Meerman Scott calls “The New Rules of Marketing and PR 2.0″. He discovered the same patterns, the same inconsistencies, the same holes in traditional marketing. After 33-years in advertising things weren’t adding up anymore. Buyers weren’t connecting with the messages. I was saying that the sales cycle had broken. I wish we would have known about David’s book in 2006 when he first published it. Four years ago when we started decoding the changes and their meanings we would have had more to go on. It’s only been a week since I found David’s book in audio form from Audible. He had been far ahead of me but we both came to many of the same conclusions. In listening to his book I was connected with a universe of jaw-dropping marketing proof. I learned of the successes others had already seen. They matched what my team had been experiencing for the last 4-years. It was all true. It wasn’t fluke when our client saw a 33% increase in sales. It might not have been a coincidence that our clients were the targets of acquisitions. You have to get this audio book. “The New Rules of Marketing and PR 2.0″ by David Meerman Scott. My company and I only thought we were pioneering a “new marketing”. Wrong. Mr. Scott had it years ahead of us. I can’t recommend enough that you get this audio book from audible. Buy it. It will change your business, change the practice of your profession and give you a real shot at marketing relevance in our forever changed interactions with buyers. Worth every penny.

A good and informative audiobook that gives a good basis information on The New Rules. If you are already in the industry you probably know most but there are certainly a lot of good ideas and case studies. But 11 hours+ is too much - could be shorter - so listen to the chapters you are interested in - not the whole book like I did.

I liked this book, it gave you an overall view of what you could be doing and I liked the honesty of the author to say that he doesnt do everything he says, you have to choose what you think you can do.

This audio book is too long, period. This could probably be chopped by 1/3 and be much more enjoyable.

I didn't like Abridged versions, I do now.

i need to have the hard copy. why? because once every 3 or 4 pages there is a gold nugget to be highlighted. it could have been written in 1/5th the pages. this is a laborious, cumbersome book. unnecessary qualifications for multiple claims, repetitive examples, over careful definitions...add all this to a writer who treats the exposition of subject matter as if he is talking to an idiot and a reader with a halting style...well...enjoy it if you can.

what a pity - the message will make brand and product marketing a cheaper, better, deeper proposition. the strategy can be formulated from this book - i'll google to see if i can find a published powerpoint.

how to underline the need for abridged volumes

What disappointed you about The New Rules of Marketing & PR 2.0?

I was too hasty to choose this book. There are two new editions out there of this book (3rd & 4th), but as it actually says in the desription it is only 2nd edition. With new material and revision in newer versions they ought to be available.

Any additional comments?

The book itself is quite interesting
