From Backroom To Boardroom: Earn Your Seat With Strategic Marketing Operations by Debbie Qaqish

About the Book:

From Backroom to Boardroom is not a book about technology, data models, or the latest in a series of bright and shiny toys so loved by marketers.

It is a book about building a strategic marketing operations organization that transports marketing from the backroom to the boardroom.

The journey begins with defining the new breed of marketing leadership and continues by exploring the integration of business acumen, marketing experience, and the power of the digital age.

This book is a practical guide that will help you reimagine, rescript, and rearchitect the role of marketing forever.

About the Author:

Debbie Qaqish isn’t here to sell you on a panacea marketing technology or convince you of the critical data you just aren’t seeing.

Rather, Debbie’s passion is found in the work she does every day—give marketing leaders the ideas, strategies, and confidence they need to reimagine the role of their marketing team and redefine its impact.

As Partner and Chief Strategy Officer of The Pedowitz GroupDebbie has helped marketing teams drive revenue growth, foster customer centricity, and lead digital transformation. 

With a focus on revenue operations, the customer experience, and a personalized, omnichannel marketing mix, Debbie has established herself as a thought leader and digital pioneer, spearheading the overdue shift of traditional marketing strategies to what she coined as “revenue marketing” in 2011. 

Since then, marketing operations became her area of expertise, devising strategy-to-execution plans that earn marketing a seat at the table.

She is also the author of Rise of The Revenue Marketer which was featured on episode 159 of The Marketing Book Podcast in 2018.

And, interesting fact - in 2019 she earned her doctorate!

Marketing the Moon: The Selling of the Apollo Lunar Program by David Meerman Scott and Richard Jurek

About the Book:

One of the most successful public relations campaigns in history, featuring heroic astronauts, press-savvy rocket scientists, enthusiastic reporters, deep-pocketed defense contractors, and Tang.

In July 1969, ninety-four percent of American televisions were tuned to coverage of Apollo 11's mission to the moon.

How did space exploration, once the purview of rocket scientists, reach a larger audience than My Three Sons? Why did a government program whose standard operating procedure had been secrecy turn its greatest achievement into a communal experience?

In Marketing the Moon, David Meerman Scott and Richard Jurek tell the story of one of the most successful marketing and public relations campaigns in history: the selling of the Apollo program.

Primed by science fiction, magazine articles, and appearances by Wernher von Braun on the “Tomorrowland” segments of the Disneyland prime-time television show, Americans were receptive to NASA's pioneering “brand journalism.”

Scott and Jurek describe sophisticated efforts by NASA and its many contractors to market the facts about space travel—through press releases, bylined articles, lavishly detailed background materials, and fully produced radio and television features—rather than push an agenda.

American astronauts, who signed exclusive agreements with Life magazine, became the heroic and patriotic faces of the program. And there was some judicious product placement: Hasselblad was the “first camera on the moon”; Sony cassette recorders and supplies of Tang were on board the capsule, and astronauts were equipped with the Exer-Genie personal exerciser. Everyone wanted a place on the bandwagon.

Generously illustrated with vintage photographs, artwork, and advertisements, many never published before, Marketing the Moon shows that when Neil Armstrong took that giant leap for mankind, it was a triumph not just for American engineering and rocketry but for American marketing and public relations.

About the Author:

David Meerman Scott is a marketing strategist, entrepreneur, international keynote speaker, investor and advisor to emerging companies, and bestselling author of 12 books, including The New Rules of Marketing & PR, Fanocracy, Real-Time Marketing & PR, Newsjacking and Marketing Lessons from the Grateful Dead.

And, interesting fact – he has one of the largest private collections of artifacts from the Apollo lunar program. He is thought to be the only person in the world with a lunar module descent engine thrust chamber in his living room!

About the Author:

Phil Barden has over 25 years of client-side brand management experience (Unilever, Diageo, and T-Mobile). Whilst responsible for T-Mobile's brand positioning and development around Europe he became a client of DECODE marketing consultancy and first encountered ‘decision science.’

DECODE’s work led to the Liverpool Street flash mob dance ad, which increased T-Mobile sales by 49%, and further work cut customer churn in half.
