Synopsis

How do Amazon, Apple, Google, Nike, Southwest Airlines, Starbucks, and The Walt Disney Company grow better and faster than others in the same industry?

In Upstream Marketing, best-selling authors Tim Koelzer and Kristin Kurth share best practices, research, case studies, and analysis informed by their more than twenty years of experience helping transform client brands and businesses through their work at EquiBrand Consulting, a top management consultancy. The result is a groundbreaking deep-dive into the fundamentals of upstream marketing-the process of identifying and fulfilling customer needs, which relies on the strategic implementation of three core principles: insight, identity, and innovation.

An invaluable tool for business leaders looking for mindset, strategy, and processes that will help them improve their organization proactively, instead of reactively. Upstream Marketing includes meticulous analysis of seven profile companies, breaking down the values and principles that make them great-and offering some how-to tips you can apply yourself. The authors also draw on examples from their own work with clients to help illustrate how applying the principles of upstream marketing correctly and at the right time can impact the health, growth, and success of any business.

From the Back Cover

Many CEOs, business leaders, and marketing managers see their playing field as largely fixed and overemphasize downstream marketing, failing to embrace the power of upstream marketing to build strong brands and transform their business. In some cases, they've surrendered the foundational principles of marketing to the digital era, including an over-reliance on marketing push tactics.

The purpose of Upstream Marketing is to change that perspective and provide the principles, tools, and techniques to redefine the playing field and unlock growth.

This business book best seller introduces the concept of upstream marketing, defines it, and establishes a new framework to drive growth, drawing on core principles of insight, identity, and innovation. These principles, when combined with six upstream marketing best practices and four business framing questions, facilitate a strategic approach to fulfilling customer needs and creating new market spaces.
