What Customers Hate: Drive Fast and Scalable Growth by Eliminating the Things that Drive Business Away by Nicholas Webb

About the Book:

This book will teach you how to eliminate what customers hate and lead your market and customer satisfaction.

Whether you’re selling to consumers or business-to-business (B2B), perfection in the marketplace does not exist. When making buying decisions, customers are faced with an array of imperfect choices.

The best organizations in the world are not only delivering great customer experience, but they’re also taking steps to proactively avoid the things that customers hate. These companies have learned that if you can eliminate what customers hate, you will instantly become the best option in your market.

No company, brand, or service enjoys 100 percent love. There will always be some degree of hate in the mix. Hate is a source of friction, and if there is too much friction, the process of moving products and services— regardless of their high quality—into the hands of customers will grind to a halt.

What Customers Hate will show you how to avoid the common pitfalls that have damaged some of the best organizations and best teams in the world, and how to change the philosophical view of customer experience so you can learn that customer experience is actually an innovation activity.

This customer experience playbook will give you actionable takeaways that include:

  • How to turn an upset customer into a customer for life, in five easy steps.
  • Why “haters” will determine your organization’s growth and profitability.
  • How to thrive in the “experience economy.”
  • The importance of the five-touch journey mapping.
  • The impact of hate-love personification.
  • How to turn your customers into “Evangelists.”
  • The power of: Attraction, Promotion, Retention, and Avoiding Deflection.
  • The secrets of the best organizations in the world.

This book is the product of many years of front-line work with some of the top brands in the world and their customers. Set aside the theories and concepts, this is the playbook you need. You’ll find that this approach will make it fast and easy to drive scalable growth, profitability, and most importantly, customer happiness.

How Creativity Rules the World: The Art and Business of Turning Your Ideas into Gold by Maria Brito

About the Book:

Learn to make creativity work for your career.

Maria Brito illustrates how creativity is merely a series of habits, actions, and attitudes that anyone can develop—regardless of who you are or what you do.

There has never been a more crucial time than now to develop your creativity and your ability to innovate. Coming up with original ideas of value is today’s most precious skill.

Contrary to a myth that has been unfairly perpetuated, creativity can be taught and learned by anyone. How Creativity Rules the World builds the case for creativity as an inexhaustible resource available to everyone and proves that it is the key to thriving in the business world and beyond.

With revealing studies and stories spanning business and art, How Creativity Rules The World is a deep dive into history, culture, psychology, science, and entrepreneurship; breaking down and analyzing the elements used by some of the most creative minds throughout the last 600 years.

Maria Brito discovered the power of creativity when she transitioned from being an unhappy Harvard-trained corporate lawyer to a thriving entrepreneur and innovator in the art world. She flipped the barrenness around her to emerge as one of the most well-known disruptors in the art world.

With this book, you will learn how to:

  • Overcome limiting thoughts and dispel myths about creativity.
  • Unleash creativity through concrete data, historical passages, and examples of modern entrepreneurship.
  • Develop timeless habits, principles, and tools that worked six centuries ago and continue to work today.
  • Employ creativity in an everyday context to produce extraordinary results.

After applying the principles in How Creativity Rules the World to her own business, she started teaching them to hundreds of people, ranging from entrepreneurs to artists to CEOs. As evidenced by her students’ creative successes, Maria knows that this timeless guide will allow others to strike gold with their ideas.

How Creativity Rules the World promises to make the creative process of successful seven-figure artists and billion-dollar entrepreneurs—as well as Maria’s own—accessible and actionable for you to take the power of their ideas to the next level.

About the Author:  

Originally from Venezuela, Maria Brito was selected by Complex Magazine as one of the "20 Power Players in the Art World," as well as being named one of ARTNEWS Magazine’s “Deciders.”

She has advised hip-hop moguls, Oscar® winning actors, Tony® winning producers, CEOs of Fortune 500 companies, and many more.

She has written for publications such as Entrepreneur, Huffington Post, Elle, Forbes, Artnet, Cultured Magazine, and Departures.

For several years, Maria has taught her creativity course in companies, and in 2019, she launched “Jumpstart,” an online program on creativity for entrepreneurs based on years of research and observation in both the areas of business and art.

Maria also wrote and hosted “The “C” Files with Maria Brito”, a TV and streaming series for PBS’s new station “ALL ARTS.”

And, interesting facts – she is a graduate of Harvard University and Harvard Law School!

A Practitioner's Guide to Account-Based Marketing: Accelerating Growth in Strategic Accounts (2nd Edition) by Bev Burgess and Dave Munn

About the Book:

As some of today's major and complex companies are worth more than the GDPs of some countries, traditional marketing approaches, such as glossy corporate campaigns, will have limited returns.

Account-based marketing, also known as client-centric marketing, treats important individual accounts as markets in their own right, to help strengthen relationships, build reputation, and increase revenues in important accounts.

A Practitioner's Guide to Account-Based Marketing outlines a clear, step-by-step process for readers to harness ABM tools and techniques and set up ABM programs.

Featuring insights from practicing professionals and case studies from organizations including Fujitsu, Infosys, Microsoft, O2, and ServiceNow, it also contains guidance on developing the competencies needed for account-based marketing and managing your ABM career.

This updated second edition contains further discussion on how ABM initiatives can go from a pilot to being embedded in a business, new material on quantified value propositions, and updated wider research.

Meticulously researched and highly practical, A Practitioner's Guide to Account-Based Marketing will help all marketers to deliver successful B2B marketing.

About the Author:

Dave Munn is President of ITSMA, a research-based community for B2B marketing leaders that pioneered the account-based marketing approach in the early 2000s. ITSMA is now a Momentum Group company.

Prior to joining ITSMA in 1995 Dave held senior-level marketing positions with Oracle and Apple and was a senior analyst at the Ledgeway Group (now part of Gartner).

He holds an MBA from Northwestern University’s Kellogg School, where he concentrated in Marketing and Corporate Strategy. 

And, interesting fact: The only reason his wife Jennifer married him is that on their first date he mentioned having read Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises and that he had run with the bulls in Pamplona Spain!
