"The End of Marketing"/ Sergio Zyman
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page summation and analysis of Sergio Zyman's book The End of Marketing As We Know It. The writer explores how expert marketer Sergio Zyman targets the current "sacred cows" of marketing, a strategy that –considering the veneration that many of these concepts receive—is rather like pointing out that the Emperor isn't wearing any clothes. Zyman asserts that marketers have become so entranced by the process that they've lost sight of the goal—to sell stuff. The writer also includes a brief comparison to Levitt's Marketing Imagination. No additional sources cited.
