We’ve covered a lot of ground on the Marketing Companion podcast over the five years we have been on the air but Tom Webster and I have never discussed our favorite recent marketing books.
We’re both voracious readers and we thought it would be fun to discuss some of the books that we have been reading in the past year.
Here are some of the books we discuss in this new show:
Story Driven: You don’t need to compete when you know who you are
by Bernadette Jiwa
Digital Marketing Analytics: Making Sense of Consumer Data in a Digital World
by Chuck Hemann and Ken Burbary
Small Data: The Tiny Clues That Uncover Huge Trends
by Martin Lindstrom
Attention Pays: How to Drive Profitability, Productivity, and Accountability
by Neen James
Friend of a Friend .: Understanding the Hidden Networks That Can Transform Your Life and Your Career
by David Burkus
The Click Moment: Seizing Opportunity in an Unpredictable World
by Frans Johannson
Leonardo da Vinci
by Walter Isaacson (yes … an interesting business book!)
This is really a fun and amazing discussion. Don’t miss Tom’s story of cooking robots! Click here to listen:
