    Typical Seth Godin marketing book, and that's not a bad thing. Not at all. It's a fast read. The message is simple, easy to comprehend but hard for most marketers to do effectively. The case studies are many, interesting and excellent examples. Seth's message is important. But it's not a license for marketers to make up S*&%. And that's where most will misunderstand Seth's message. Take the truth and then have fun with it...make it into a story that will resonate with customers.

    MDG team reading this book, primarily to compare its message to the "features vs. benefits" sales technique related to 'need satisfaction selling.' Author comments that we don't buy on needs anymore - all our needs are met. We buy on wants - and as a result, we need an emotional story (a 'lie') to connect us to the product or service. Written in a stream of consciousness style with short bites of commentary. Easy to read, thought provoking.

    great stuff by Seth again. This is about how stories around a product /service sell it.

    Seth Godin has a big fan base among people interested in marketing, so you're one of them, read this. This is about how good marketers are storytellers.
