Twitter is Not a StrategyRemastering the Art of Brand Marketing

Tom Doctoroff

a leading executive at J. walter Thompson breaks down the barriers between traditional and digital media, offering timeless principles for customer engagement practiced by the top brands in the world

In a cultural climate saturated by technology, marketing professionals have focused their energies on creating newer and more digital methods of advertising their brands, with the fear that if they don’t embrace “Big Data” they will fade into obscurity. But Tom Doctoroff, Asia CEO for J. Walter Thompson, argues that this frenzy over digital media has created a schism in the marketing world that is hindering brands from attaining their true business potential. The tension between traditional branding and the seemingly unlimited possibilities presented by the advent of “digital” branding leads companies to abandon the tried and true aspects of marketing for the flash of the new.

In this informative new book, Doctoroff explains why a strategy that truly integrates the two ideas is the best way for a brand to move into the future. Using some of the biggest brand names in the world as examples, such as Coca-Cola, Nike, and Apple, he breaks down the framework of marketing to explain how digital marketing can’t stand without the traditional foundation.

ToM DocToroFF is Asia CEO for J. Walter Thompson, and the author of What Chinese Want.

all InWhy Every Organization Needs Big Risks, Bold Characters and the Occasional Spectacular Failure

Deborah Perry Piscione

Bestselling author Deborah perry piscione explains why risk tolerance is the new harbinger of success, for established businesses and startups alike

In today’s stock market-driven economy, too many companies are focused on short-term gains, and not enough on lifetime potential. As a result, Western businesses have begun to lag behind the rest of the world in innovation, and growth has stalled – except when creative venture capitalists and bold entrepreneurs come together to invent products, services, and process improvements that no one had ever dreamed of before.

But this doesn’t happen without breaking a few eggs. In All In, Deborah Perry Piscione explores the most innovative new companies, and the role risk-taking and failure tolerance play in their success. Drawing on case studies from a wide range of now-famous giants (Amazon, Netflix) and successful startups (Kiva, Box), she distills lessons for both new entrepreneurs and established companies whose risk aversion has cost them market share.
