5.0 out of 5 stars This book is full of what you need to know., 11 Feb 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Advertising Agency Business: The Complete Manual for Management and Operation (Hardcover)
This book is a must if you're thinking about getting into the management side of the ad business, if you're already in the creative side but want to find out what your boss has on his/her mind, or if you do business with an ad agency and might find it useful to see how things look from the other side of the contract.

The Authors - Mr Gardner wrote the original edition of this book in the 70's and Mr Hameroff has been responsible for the two subsequent updates - have applied their expertise in the advertising industry to show how to apply good fiscal management to this field.

The style of the writing is like that of your favorite college lecturer: authoritative and full of relevant data, but friendly and easy to digest. The reader learns some fundamental ad-world concepts and vocabulary, but this book would never satisfy anyone looking for "How to Make a Million in Advertising Overnight". And while they do offer some tips about getting and keeping clients, the authors never presume to show the reader how to create successful advertising itself. Rather, they thoroughly lay down the economic ground rules that any ad agency chief must be aware of, if his/her company is to survive and prosper as a business.
