The New Language of Marketing 2.0: How to Use ANGELS to Energize Your Market
"Marketing has entered a new era of rapid advance. Those unwilling to experiment with new combinations of traditional and internet marketing will be left behind."
—Chris Trimble, Adjunct Associate Professor of Business Administration, Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth and Coauthor, Ten Rules for Strategic Innovators: From Idea to Execution

“It’s no secret that business has been changing dramatically over the last decade. To succeed in this rapidly changing environment, businesses must adapt their marketing strategies accordingly—The New Language of Marketing 2.0 provides practical, proven, and prescient tools to do exactly that.”
—Dr. Steve Moxey, Research Fellow, High-Tech Marketing, Manchester Business School

“Most U.S. marketers mistakenly think 'going global' is just a matter of translating your promotional materials into different languages and widening your media buys. Packed with real-life examples, this new book amply demonstrates that successful global marketing is actually all about local marketing. Learn how to give a local spin within each regional marketplace for global success.”
—Anne Holland, Founder, MarketingSherpa Inc
