“If you’re buying that Super Bowl ad to score great tickets to the game, designing a creative magazine ad to win an award for your agency, creating a book of press clips to show your bosses or trying to get your CEO on TV, then the new rules are not for you. However, if you're like millions of smart marketers and entrepreneurs whose goal is to communicate with buyers directly; if you're working to make your company more visible online; if you want to drive people into your company’s sales process so they actually buy, apply, join, subscribe or donate, then I wrote this book for you.”
