Synopsis

You''re either a Purple Cow or you''re not. You''re either remarkable or invisible. Make your choice.

What do Apple, Starbucks, Dyson and Pret a Manger have in common? How do they achieve spectacular growth, leaving behind former tried-and-true brands to gasp their last? The old checklist of P''s used by marketers - Pricing, Promotion, Publicity - aren''t working anymore. The golden age of advertising is over. It''s time to add a new P - the Purple Cow.

Purple Cow describes something phenomenal, something counterintuitive and exciting and flat-out unbelievable. In his new bestseller, Seth Godin urges you to put a Purple Cow into everything you build, and everything you do, to create something truly noticeable. It''s a manifesto for anyone who wants to help create products and services that are worth marketing in the first place.

From AudioFile

Think outside the herd of normal cows: Promise more, deliver the unexpected, and, above all, be original. This encapsulates an energy-filled marketing and product development manifesto, in which intuitive marketer Seth Godin urges all of us to rethink, revamp, and reenergize our offering--product, service, or creative venture--with originality, verve, and fun. Zealous and even pleasantly overwrought, our reader/author guides us down the rabbit hole and through the looking glass to marketing nirvana, where we'd rather see a purple cow than be one.
