From the Back Cover
Noted ad agency founders Stan Rapp and Thomas L. collins are the originators of MaxiMarketing. Their three best-selling books on the MaxiMarketing concept, which have been translated into a dozen languages, have sold more than 300,000 copies worldwide. Now, in their latest book, Rapp and Collins have examined the marketing successes of 20 advertisers around the world and have identified, extracted, and described 67 keys to the advertisers' astonishing gains in sales and market share. All of these insights have been boiled down to their own "outrageously simple" essence, so that each idea can be adpated to entirely different marketing situations. In the first part of the book, each idea is presented on its own page as a bite-sized "commandment," followed by a braoder definition and a discussion of how the idea was used. Part 2 offers more in-epth examinations with each idea cross-referenced to an extended case history. Here you will read about the marketing breakthroughs of such corporate giants as Shiseido, Mead-Johnson, and H.J. Heinz as well as small businesses such as the Philip Murphy chain of liquor stores in Australia and Grassfield's menswear store in Denver. You will see exactly how Ansett NZ airline got 80 percent of the members of their frequen-flyer club to pay a 300 renewal fee by sending them one white sock. And many other successful tactics and strategies. The 67 "starter" ideas in this book will undoubtedly spark still more idas that may result in that big breakthrough every marketer is always looking for.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Simple, Practical - Profitable!,
This review is from: Send 'Em One White Sock and 66 Other Outrageously Simple Ideas From Around the World for Building Your Business or Brand: The MaxiMarketing Idea Book (Hardcover)
This is the first Rapp / Collins book I read and I found the book delivers what it promises - simple, obvious, practical ideas to improve business. It comes in short chapters which focuses on 1 point, so it's really easy to absorb and think about. Yes, of course you can read the content of the book and find out what these 66 ideas are but it's worth reading (not that difficult to absorb) to get a deeper understand of how the ideas are applied. It's a ready reference that you would want on your bookself or better yet in your drawer so that your boss won't find out where you got your fantastic idea from. It's worth it.
