Exactly what I needed - had no clue what marketing was before I read this book
I really liked this book - it gave me the perspective and clarity I needed, especially since the default advice we're exposed to these days is just "become a content creation machine!" Case studies and examples of both failures and successes were great. It gives a good overview of what to be careful of, what to leverage, and what to focus on.This is a great book if you already have an idea that you really believe in and that you think can create a meaningful change (a purple cow), but are struggling with the 'spreading' aspect of it and don't want to give in to gimmicks and to becoming one out of millions clawing for a sliver of anyone and everyone's attention span.For me this book was exactly what I needed. It filled some gaps in my vision and stimulated a lot of ideas for what I want to do.A few concepts and chapters didn't seem very relevant to me, but most of this book was well worth it. I generally don't give reviews but I did for this because it is rare for me to find this much value in a book.I'm probably going to read it over and over to let all of it really sink in. Every chapter is new and short, and offers something different rather than just repeating the same thing over and over.

Marketing Masterclass for all!
Seth Godin's This is Marketing is a masterclass in understanding modern marketing principles. The book emphasizes that effective marketing isn't about spamming or manipulating but about creating meaningful change by addressing specific audiences' needs. Godin underscores the importance of empathy, building trust, and crafting a narrative that resonates deeply with a targeted community, rather than attempting to appeal to everyone.The standout idea is that marketing is about solving problems for your audience and creating genuine value, making it a guide for ethical and sustainable marketing practices. The writing is concise, thought-provoking, and filled with actionable insights, though it can feel repetitive at times for seasoned marketers. Overall, it’s a must-read for those looking to approach marketing as an act of service rather than mere persuasion.
