Today on the More Cheese Less Whiskers podcast, I'm answering a question I've been asked a lot recently; "What are the most impactful books you've read to fast-track my marketing career?"
So today, I'm running through my top 10. The books I return to time and time again, and the ones that have shaped the way I think about marketing and have influenced the programs I've developed.
As you're thinking about your business and marketing, taking inspiration from others and applying them to your situation is the fastest way of progressing. There are some great lessons here, and I'm excited to share what I took from them.
Be on the lookout too for a genuine surprise. Neatly folded in one of the books is an original ad response I received over 20 years ago. So as an unexpected bonus, we can break down one of my first ads!
I can't wait to hear the lesson you take from these books:
