Reader reviews for Free Gift Inside!! : Forget the Customer. Develop Marketease

From the publisher

Free Gift Inside! offers an alternative solution to the difficulty of selling to an already sated and sophisticated consumer.
* Based on the article "Torment Your Customers (They'll Love It" which Harvard Busines Review chose as one of 2002's Six Breakthrough Ideas
* A new concept that turns marketing on its head and offers a more effective answer to customer relationship management and permission marketing

From the jacket flap

Customers? Customers Customers Don't talk to me about customers! I've had it up to here with customers. Haven't you?

Now, don't get me wrong. I have nothing against customers. Some of my best friends are customers. Customers are a good thing, by and large, provided they're kept well downwind. But there is a limit. They're starting to get uppity. They're beginning to think that they know best. I ask you. Who are these people?

Of course, we only have ourselves to blame, since marketers have been chanting the mantra of customer orientation for forty-odd years. It's time for a change. It's time to stop kow-towing. It's time to forget about customer focus. It's time to tantalize, tease and torment them, to play hard to get. It's time, in short, for Stephen Brown's Free Gift Inside!!

Marketing, he demonstrates, is not about customer-orientation. It is about selling stuff. It is about selling stuff to today's sated, sophisticated, super-skeptical consumers, who have an infinite number of near-identical offerings to choose from.

The aim is to make choosy consumers choose yours.

He has written or co-edited 13 books, including Marketing Apocalypse, Postmodern Marketing and Romancing the Market.
