Title: Buying In

Subtitle: The Secret Dialogue Between What We Buy and Who We Are

Author: Rob Walker

Narrator: Robert Fass

Format: Unabridged

Length: 9 hrs and 24 mins

Language: English

Release date: 05-19-08

Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc.

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 147 votes

Genres: Business, Marketing

Publisher's Summary:

Marketing executives and consumer advocates alike predict a future of brand-proof consumers, armed with technology and a sophisticated understanding of marketing techniques, who can effectively tune out ad campaigns. But as Rob Walker demonstrates, this widely accepted misconception has eclipsed the real changes in the way modern consumers relate to their brands of choice. Combine this with marketers' new ability to blur the line between advertising, entertainment, and public space, and you have dramatically altered the relationship between consumer and consumed.

Critic Reviews:

"In Buying In, Walker aims to lift the cloud of self-delusion that obscures our buying habits." (The New York Times)

Members Reviews:

Its ok, good info, but I had to force my way

That is I had to force my self to listen right up to the end. It definintely does give you good info, you should know about. It does help to know what you are buying into in this world and defintely helped my on my self improvement quest.

Lets you in on the secret...

Buying in was, for me, an interesting and thought provoking book. Marketing is a key component of my job and Rob Walkers book gave me some valuable insight as to how the consumer views it (marketing). I found it valuable in that it sparked multiple and new avenues for me to market my business. I would caution though, the book is not a how to market to the new consumer. What it is, is new way of looking at and thinking about marketing.

Good study of changes in marketing

This book focuses on what the author calls "murketing", which is where marketing blends into real life. Examples include the way people are invited to become "product advocates" (my term not his) to promote products for corporations, and how brands have become a part of self-identification. Walker is a journalist and it shows from his writing which is clear and not overwrought or stilted.

I found the book to be interesting, although the author was a bit too enamored of the new. Everyone who writes one of these books talks about how the world is changing and has never been this way before. Walker isn't quite that gullible and he even points to the past sometimes, but I found still that he seems to believe that his insights are unique a bit too often. They're not, but that doesn't make the book less worthwhile and it doesn't mean you shouldn't consider it.

Often Audible narrators are annoying and can't pronounce non-English words properly, emphasize the wrong syllables, etc. You won't have that problem here.

Buy Buying In

Fun book from the NYTime's Magazine Consumed column...delves into the world of "murketing" - the new method of connecting with consumers who are immune to traditional mass marketing. Some interesting connections on how we could "market" educational technology.

Excellent!

Finally, a book on Marketing that goes beyond corporate clich? and frivolous research. Excellent insights, excellent narration.

Mark Penn argues that the biggest trends in America are the Microtrends, the smaller trends that go unnoticed or ignored. With years of experience as one of world's most highly regarded pollsters, Penn identifies the new microtrends sweeping the world, such as "Single Women by Choice" and "Sun Haters".

"The ideas in his book will help you see the world in a new way." (Bill Clinton)

"Mark Penn has a keen mind and a fascinating sense of what makes America tick, and you see it on every page of Microtrends." (Bill Gates)

Members Reviews:

Interesting ideas, but fell asleep

I was very intrigued by the description of this book and all the "rave" reviews it has gotten, but once I got through 4 hours of it I couldn't stand it and turned the radio on. It started out well and I really enjoyed listening to how the demographics of the world has been changing, but it got stale after a while. It seemed like the same idea being expressed..... the world is changing.

Microinfluence...

This book alternates between facinating and infuriating. The author's thesis that America is hardly a melting pot, but a pointalism painting that must be examined on the small-scale to be appreciated as a whole is rivetting and enlightening. However, the slightest knowledge of statistics, research methods, or polling methods makes his use of numbers and polls down-right frustrating. He never really properly addresses the problems of bias, skewed results, or problems with the ways questions are formed. And while many of his assertions are interesting, some of them are too hastily made (and many are down-right silly), which distracts from the overall message. However, by ignoring his playing fast and loose with numbers and rush to hypothesis, it's a great book. In other words, if your looking for an interesting introduction to polling, go for this book. Most people can find themselves in at least one of the categories-I'm a bit of an oddball so I was suprised that I was only in the "Upscaled Tattoo" group (in which he makes NUMEROUS errors in assumptions-the Macdonaldization of tattooing is a terrible idea). This helps support his overall thesis-we can't insist everyone be "American," when there are so many ways to be American. Plus, he points out many things that are easy to overlook. For instance, railing against illegal immigrants may not be a great idea for politicians because, even though the aliens can't vote, chances are they have family and friends in country who CAN.

But if you want serious numbers and accounting of actual trends in America, this book will leave you wanting.

Long

This was a good book but it basically runs through one trend after another maybe 100 trends are discussed. Some trends seem to contradict others and it felt like it just went on and on. Although I never quit on an audiobook, I was tempted to just stop listening.

Opiniones de los miembros:

Muy buen Audiolibro

Ofrece herramientas prácticas y relevantes para posicionarse en internet tanto a nivel de marca personal como de negocio. Muy recomendado

Excelente actualización sobre el uso de la Web 3.0

If you could sum up Iniciándose en la Web 3.0: Estrategias de Mercadeo en Línea para el Lanzamiento y Promoción de Cualquier Negocio en la Web (Marketing en Línea) (Spanish Edition) in three words, what would they be?

Una excelente descripción de las nuevas estrategias del uso de la Web aunque un poco sobre-enfocado en Google. En lo general, me parece un excelente libro.

Any additional comments?

La narración es muy buena aunque se equivoca en la falta de traducción de los términos, al explicar (por ejemplo) una dirección web. Dice "slash" en lugar de 'diagonal' y usa innecesariamente http:// porque, todo mundo sabe que con decir la dirección web, es suficiente.

Members Reviews:

Great practical knowledge. Highly Recommend

i have been listening to it and taking tons of notes. there is so much good marketing advice adapted to social media i now want the print copy for all the end of chapter exercises. I bought 3 other social media marketing books and each offered information for officers in enterprise level companies. This book gives practical good advice to the small and medium size business. I do wish the Author would put an audio companion on her website so us audible listeners can access the great end of chapter worksheets. I am currently transcribing them, but it is great information, so who is complaining:) thanks for the great work.

The title says it all

This book is laid out in a simple digestible and workable format. The author knows precisely what she is writing about. Anybody should be able to get to grips with a cross media social campaign across all the popular sites.

I have read / listened to a few books on the subject, mostly focused around B2B on LinkedIN. I found this book, whilst not so in-depth on LinkedIn, still has enough there to get you well on the way to Social Media success with LinkedIn as a part of that strategy.

It's the sort of book you can come back to time and again, even if it's to dip in to learn about a particular platform - almost like a reference book.

30 days has now gone further than I realise

I found by re-listening to this book it helped me become more engaged in my job I had felt I was getting stale now I'm going out and getting somewhere again.

Has Gail updated his 30 day book since 2012?
