That M word … Marketing. For some reason, it scares me when I see it because just starting a business or inventing a product isn’t enough. It’s the marketing you do that sells your product or your business. Never fear, though, because Author Jason McDonald has put together some ideas that will make you think better, do better, and measure better when it comes to marketing your business. He has given you a step-by-step practical plan, whether it’s online or off. He shows you how to “brand” your business or your product in order for you to be more successful and sell more. Of course, that translates to more money. Marketing is not something for you to shrug off and think people will find you sooner or later if you do nothing. Why go to the trouble of giving your all to a company or a product if you don’t intend to tell the world about it? Marketing takes a lot of thinking, doing, and measuring. It’s not as easy as it seems. Author McDonald has broken it down into five key activities for you: Define your product, build your brand, become easy to find, create persuasive content, and promote your product. By the time you’ve finished this book, you will be well on your way to having a marketing plan that works for you and your business. You’ll be on your way to earning money as your ideas pay off. I highly recommend this book to everyone. No matter what product or service you decide to get into, this book, “The Marketing Book: A Marketing Plan for Your Business Made Easy via Think / Do / Measure” by Jason McDonald is well worth buying and using as a reference. He makes it easy to understand and master.

The 2019 Marketing Book by Jason McDonald is an invaluable resource for new startup businesses as well as currently established small businesses. Whether you are a current small business marketer / owner or new to the field, Jason helps you create a marketing plan that measures and gains results. I really like how he uses a “Think / Do / Measure” approach throughout the book. He explains each process / concept and then proceeds to help you through the steps to complete, all while also explaining the importance of measuring results. ALL VERY important to streamlining your efforts and knowing what is or isn’t working. This ensures you are continually improving as a marketer and selling more products or services in a practical, efficient manner. Jason does an excellent job explaining each of the steps in the process to successful marketing without dumbing it down, using big words that are hard to understand, or giving you watered down content. I have read many of Jason’s other books and thought they were excellent but I felt The Marketing Book was a step above all his other books. Very thoroughly written in a practical yet interesting and informative format. Very easy to understand and gives you the confidence that you can go to your computer and complete each of the concepts in a step by step manner while understanding why you are doing what you are doing.

As a higher-level Marketer, I feel this is a great reference tool and a way to assess to be sure I am doing everything I should to succeed and improve company sales.

En general me pareció muy interesante, como una introducción al marketing, una guía para hacer un marketing plan. Si no te dedicas al marketing, o tuviste una formación en la materia, creo que es una buena opción para obtener una visión de lo que hace el departamento de marketing en una empresa, así como las tendencias actuales de marketing.

I will start by saying that I am an Illustration student currently studying degree at University, so I know very little about marketing or business, despite how crucial it might be for my future career. As an artist I will soon have to find ways to sell my own work, and in this age the best way to do that is through online clientele in the form of auctions and custom work. I know nothing about this, which has been a big source of worry for me recently, because I don’t know the first thing about marketing or any kind of business. I completely failed a Business course in high school and have been avoiding the subject since ! The Marketing Book by Jason McDonald has completely changed that for me. This book proved to be an amazing introduction into the world of marketing - one that I could actually understand. It felt worlds away from my old business classes because the content was written and presented in such an engaging, clear way. Business is an essential subject for so many career paths, but so much of the ‘beginner’ information out there is full of complicated terms or seemingly abstract business concepts. I am happy to say that this book was truly the ‘made easy’ it claimed to be, and provided me with a clear vision of what path and steps I need to take to market my work going forwards. McDonalds skill as a writer and the clear, easy to follow layout he used (splitting the different sections into chapters was so so helpful!) made it super easy to absorb the information presented to me. McDonald’s tone was also conversational and light-hearted throughout the book, so I didn’t get bored or distracted at all. I am usually a fiction reader so this was a big surprise to me, as I was expecting to get bored or have to force myself to read on - this is all due to McDonald’s writing style and presentation choices. I think the reason The Marketing Book is so helpful is because it offers actual, tangible strategies that are easy for a nobody like me to implement in real world practise. The most immediately useful of those for me was the idea building up business oriented social media accounts through which I could market. In my five years of illustration I’d somehow never thought of doing that, so I’ve now created an Instagram account dedicated to my artwork. The one downside was that I did struggle with a few links in the book not working but that was a pretty minor issue, as the rest of the book was invaluable to me in terms of the information it provided and the effect it will have on my career. I finally feel as though I’ve properly stepped into the world of marketing ! Overall I highly recommend buying The Marketing Book (: I can see a bright future ahead for me in terms of business, when before the idea of marketing my own artwork was a scary unknown and a big source of stress.

Well, i always considered myself as a noob when it comes to digital marketing, but after going through this book, made me confident enough to incorporate some of the marketing techniques mentioned in the book into my business. Jason Mcdonald seems a very wise man. He started the book on a very basic note, explaining BVP and USVP, which is basically knowing about customer requirement and what unique thing you are offering to them and jason insisted to make it short and specific.Then he went on to explaining never ending market research and our role as an observer. Clear distinction about B2C and B2B was elaborated in the book, like, how one runs majorly on emotions and other on reasoning. Author explained the importance of finding a niche, knowing, how broad and competitive the market is and most importantly, ‘the five discovery paths’ which explained very explicitly and detailed. There is a whole chapter on online reviews and he explained how, being having a blog , a good looking website and a informative YouTube channel , plays major role as trust indicator. This seems totally true , knowing, most customers focus majorly on online reviews and social media presence, nowadays. He gave reasonable tips on search engine optimisation and , how startling a blog and regular posts with right keywords could make our business fall top in the search results. I get to know the difference between remarketing and retargeting, finally. Later in the book, he went on mentioning the benefits of mixing up traditional and digital marketing, which seemed quite thoughtful. I liked various illustration with catchy phrases like calling a webinar or ebook as a “lead magnet” and why peanut butter is near jellies in a super market, stuck in my mind totally, although, it seems to be a bit faded and less charming in the middle as it gets boring and , somehow, starts to feel like a classroom book, which is , obviously, less compelling and majorly , the relentless use of cat emporium example really pisses you off. Apart from that, reading this book is a total value addition and I would recommend this to anyone who want to improve his marketing skills or keen to learn basics of marketing in digital media.

Just what I was looking for: a succinct, practical and well written book on an otherwise overly complex subject. Highly recommended if you need a rounded and myth busting guide to marketing.

This book says the basics to master in three perfect divisions , simple is more complex then hard this book is simple to understand everything 🤪🌟☀️iam a superfan marketer for this book
