At the moment when I picked up this book, I didn't have much enthusiasm, I honestly admit. The first thought is that this book is small and it's about marketing: If anything, I won't waste a lot of time.
Now I say with confidence that the book is useful, and it is worth reading not only to businessmen who want to start talking about their business and willingly recommend it to each other, but also to everyone who cares about the fate of the company in which they work.
Dedicated to all people with burning eyes...
Word of mouth, backed up by the capabilities of the Internet, is already working. Online conversation about you or your brand is already underway. Financial losses from inaction and non-participation in the conversation will be very difficult to measure. Andy calls for action and offers a simple, concise and competent guide to action. * The reading time is about 3 hours (it's time for me to think about speed reading, because it took more).
This book will open your eyes to what you have always known, so that this knowledge will finally work for you. The best part is that after the book I want to move on, there are many practical issues that I want to solve. For example, with the automation of collecting opinions about you, your brand, product, picture, book. That's what you, for example, use and do you use at all? Maybe Google Alerts, maybe something more specialized? Datasift? Buzzware?
