Creating the Marketing Experience or Protectionism and World Welfare

Creating the Marketing Experience

Author: Joe Marconi

CREATING THE MARKET EXPERIENCE: NEW STRATEGIES FOR BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS WITH YOUR TARGET MARKET helps companies create and maintain an effective marketing experience. Noting that marketing productivity is on the decline due to saturation of sales messages, increased customer indifference, and easily copied competitive advantage, this cutting-edge book illustrates that people need to feel kinship with the product and the marketer. Packed with case studies, the book helps marketers create the contexts in which prospects can experience the brand on their own terms without an interrupting sales pitch. Combining the best of publicity/PR and marketing, the book reflects the growth of integrated marketing communications and the decline of paid marketing and media.

Protectionism and World Welfare

Author: Dominick Salvator

Many of the world's most distinguished economists examine the recent deterioration in the liberal multilateral trading system, the movement toward protectionism, bilateralism and regionalism, and its causes, effects, and possible solutions. The contributors are at the forefront of trade theory, policy and practice, and by collecting together these analyses in a single volume, this book provides a unique survey for students and scholars of economics, and all those concerned with trade theory and policy in business and government.
