Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Advertising is key in marketing but marketing has moved on from just endlessly upping the customer body count to keeping customers once you've reeled them in. The author of Marketing Communications, Paul Smith says success is all about integrating separate approaches such as PR, internal and direct marketing into one complete marketing strategy. All the promotional elements which are used to gain customers must be planned and then implemented in a co-ordinated way. And then, as they say, you'll have them "from the womb to the tomb".

Marketing Communications is designed to be dipped into when you need a particular question answered rather than read from cover to cover. It's accessible and uses familiar campaigns (such as the Variety club gold heart) to illustrate all the steps to marketing for the millennium. There's a great chapter on how to work with agencies and consultants, marketing on the Internet, corporate identity (Shell change their logo every 12 years) and it even dips into the Holy Grail for PR and marketing execs--dealing with the media. There are also essential contact details for organisations and industry bodies at the end of each chapter.

This is an essential tool for any marketing professional or student and a great marketing reference book on the formulation and understanding of integrated marketing strategy. --Kristen Bowditch --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Review
"I commend the integrated approach to marketing communications to the reader, whether they be a student coming to grips with the subject or a practitioner aiming to obtain maximum effectiveness from a limited promotional budget."-- Alan Pulford, Visiting Fellow, Manchester Metropolitan University and Manchester Business

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have book for any marketer!, 11 Jan 2001
By A Customer
This is one of the most useful Marcomms books I've read. It's straightforward and engaging, in a no-nonsense style. If you're an junior marketer, it's great for learning the basics. If you're a more senior marketer, it's excellent to have on the shelf to refresh your memory in times of crisis! We all need a good reference book - but this is interesting enough to read even if you're on the train in the morning. A great classic.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Marketing Students Bible, 6 Jan 2002
This is a fantastic and easy to use book. Brilliant as a support for students studying marketing or any type of business and also as a solid grounding for anyone involved within this sector. I use this book to dip into whilst studying my course and it always seems to have the answers. Excellent!

5.0 out of 5 stars A most enjoyable read - for a textbook, 21 Feb 2002
By A Customer
Usually as students we scan a book on any reading list with interest rather than enthusiasm. However Smith & Taylor's book is really funny.
They seem to be able to mix theory and practice in an entertaining way and it is packed with up to date anecdotes. Really different for a textbook.
