Riassunto

Real People, Real Decisions is the only text to introduce marketing from the perspective of real people who make real marketing decisions at leading companies every day. Marketing is about the flesh and blood people who need to make tough decisions about the best way to develop a new product, or about how to make a product so irresistible that it flies off store shelves. With this book, the authors show how marketing can come alive when practiced by real people who make real choices. Imagine you are Dr Steve Perry, Commercial Director of Visa Europe the world's leading electronic payment system and one of the top ten sponsors of the Olympics, Para Olympics and FIFA World Cup.

Imagine you are Dr Steve Perry, Commercial Director of Visa Europe  the world’s leading electronic payment system and one of the top ten sponsors of the Olympics, Paralympics and FIFA World Cup. Visa have developed V PAY which is the first trans European chip and pin payment system and the question facing Dr Steve Perry was, how does Visa Europe try to move European banks over to V PAY as the preferred payment card solution?

Your options are...

·   Target large trans-european banks

·   Target each country one at a time

·   Target a combination of bank and country

...What would you do?

Each chapter is an explosion of ideas, introducing you to a dilemma faced by a real-life marketeer at an eclectic range of companies including Royal Mail, Amazon and Bono’s RED campaign. You’ll hear from marketing academics and students, as well as practitioners and experts from other disciplines, explain what decision they would have made in the same situation, before discovering how it worked out. This new and innovative approach will throw you into the exciting decision-making process and help you to understand all the key theories and 'metrics' underpinning the discipline, whilst vividly bringing both the principles and practice of marketing to life.
