The core message in this compelling new book is that ‘everything communicates.’ Advertising, once the realm of marketers and agencies is now a core business strategy, requiring fluid and silo-busting orchestration of innovation, customer service, corporate reputation management and more. The authors effectively argue that brand equity today is in continuous flux. And if there is any daylight between what a brand says and does, customers will short it like a poorly performing stock. The only answer is to put customers at the center of the organization and ‘Beyond Advertising’ will teach you how.
