The 22 Immutable Laws of Marketing

Buchzusammenfassung

Al Ries and Jack Trout are the co-founders of the marketing company Trout & Partners. Together they coined the term “positioning” as a way to utilize a position in the marketplace to sell a product. Ries first worked in advertising at General Motors and has published multiple books including The 22 Immutable Laws of Branding. Trout and Ries also co-wrote the marketing classic Marketing Warfare.
