Title: Flip the Funnel: How to Use Existing Customers to Gain New Ones

Author: Joseph Jaffe

Narrator: Bruce Mann

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10:55:00

Language: English

Release date: 07-20-20

Publisher: Ascent Audio

Genres: Business & Economics, Marketing & Advertising

Summary:

In most businesses, it costs roughly5-10x more to acquire a new customer than it does to retain an existing one. Marketers typically spend 80% of their budgets trying to chase as many new prospects as possible into the top of the traditional 'sales funnel' so that ultimately a few of them will end up buying the product or service. In this book, marketing guru Joseph Jaffe explains how to 'Flip the Funnel' and generate huge quantities of new sales prospects--by investing in the bottom of the traditional funnel--your existing customer base. The book explains how to cut your marketing budget, and still grow sales using a committed, conversational marketing philosophy and methodology, described in the book. The book also explains how to use digital and social media to implement 'influencer marketing' and word-of-mouth strategies i.e. using loyal, opinionated and/or loud customers to reach out to prospects to become the most credible, persuasive and influential endorsers or salespeople. Another key weapon in the arsenal is using customer service in create new ways to turn customers into salespeople. The result of the 'Flip the Funnel' approach is that 'customer retention becomes the new acquisition.'

Title: Common Purpose: How Great Leaders Get Organizations to Achieve the Extraordinary

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:58:42

Language: English

Release date: 07-20-20

Publisher: Ascent Audio

Genres: Business & Economics, Management & Leadership

Summary:

Over the years, thousands of books, articles, studies and theories have been developed on the topic of leadership. People are fascinated by the subject and with how they can become better leaders or rise to leadership-level positions. And yet, despite all this work, a consensus has not emerged with respect to what leadership is, how leaders develop, and perhaps most importantly how to become a more effective leader. The appetite for books that provide answers to these questions is almost insatiable. COMMON PURPOSE will answer these questions. But it will be different from all those leadership books already on the shelf because it will show that common purpose, is the heart and soul of great leadership. Common purpose is a new concept. What is common purpose? It is that rare, almost-palpable experience that happens when a leader coalesces a group, team or community into a creative, dynamic, brave and nearly invincible we.It happens the moment the organizations values, tools, objectives and hopes are internalized in a way that enables people to work tirelessly toward a goal. Years ago, there was a book about the inner game of tennis which changed the way people think about and play sports. Common purpose is the inner game of leadership. Common purpose is rarely achieved. But Kurtzman has observed that when a leader is able to bring it about, the results are outsized, measurable and inspiring. COMMON PURPOSE is a book about leaders, leadership and how to lead. It is based on Kurtzmans recent interviews with more than 50 leaders. It is also based on research on leadership he has conducted over the years beginning at The New York Times, the Harvard Business Review, Booz & Company, during his career as a partner at PricewaterhouseCoopers, his own consulting firm and for groups like Mercer HR, Korn/Ferry International and Heidrick & Struggles.

Title: Getting Change Right: How Leaders Transform Organizations from the Inside Out

Author: Bill George, Seth Kahan

Narrator: John Morgan

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:44:09

Language: English

Release date: 07-20-20

Publisher: Ascent Audio

Genres: Business & Economics, Management & Leadership

Summary:

Getting Change Right presents a new view of leadership communication that says change doesn't flow top-down, bottom-up, or sideways, but inside-out. When the right people are having the right conversations and interactions, then they act in concert even though the situations they confront independently are impossible to predict or coordinate... this is how change spreads through a complex system. In this book, Kahan challenges readers with a new model of communication, one that moves from a transactional view of information exchange (Here's my message. Get it?) to a collaborative construction of shared understanding (Let's talk together about what this means to each of us and how it will change all of us). This shift in leadership communication forms the basis of Getting Change Right. Kahans experience with Fortune 100 companies, leading government agencies, and innovative associations has shown him that there is a whole different way to approach change that leads to dramatic success. It feeds on (1) authentic face-to-face conversations among those whose understanding and behavior have critical impact, the most valuable players, or MVPs, and (2) dramatic events that capture the spirit of the change and spread it in powerful surges. This approach is just as much about listening as it is about telling a process Kahan calls co-creation. Getting Change Right draws on Kahans years of experience as a hands-on practitioner, offering business insights and field-tested, practical techniques that readers can put to work immediately to achieve success.

Author, Vik Venkatraman, divides the book into three distinct parts: Development, Launch, and Rollout. Before you can have a successful consumer brand, you need to have a killer product and a consumer that wants it, with a package that is eye catching and consistent with its function, as well as with the capabilities of the retailer and the needs of the consumer. Once you have a product, it needs to be tested with both the customers and the consumers before being produced. Its price must meet the market even at low volumes, and its design must be appealing to customers. The market gatekeepers need to believe the product can be successful, and it is imperative to build a track record of consumer preference.Throughout this process, Vik will provide readers with inspired and enchanted true stories and anecdontesof initiative and entrepreneurship, as well as failures. Finally, Inspired! will introduce valuable and difficult-to-reach market players, such as producers, designers, distributors and retailers, as well as feature interviews and guest content from the entrepreneurs and merchandisers of successful consumer startup brands (see 'IV. Chapter by Chapter' section of backup for completelist of names).

Title: Regulating Wall Street: The Dodd-Frank Act and the New Architecture of Global Finance

Author: Ingo Walter, Matthew P. Richardson, Myron Scholes, New York University Stern School Of Business, Thomas F. Cooley, Viral V. Acharya

Publisher: Ascent Audio

Genres: Business & Economics, Accounting & Finance

Summary:

In Regulating Wall Street, Stern has assembled a team of experts, each a specialist in a relevant discipline, to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the legislation that is now on the table. Not all of the issues addressed in the current legislation are equally important. Some, such as financial sector compensation and consumer protection - are perhaps not central to future financial stability. Others, such as the future role of the Federal Reserve, the approach to systemic risk, the restructuring of too-big-to-fail institutions, and the shadow banking system that houses OTC derivative and money markets, are undoubtedly critical to the future safety and soundness of the financial system. The debates will be both heated and ongoing -as will thebook's commentary; witha blog to accompany the book upon publication, the editors and contributors will have a forum to continue their discussions regarding the effects of the future legislation, as well as opening upthe debate to readers.
