Too many business books share a philosophy but don't help you through the hurdles of implementation. In Think like a Brand, Not a Bank, Allison and Liz provide helpful (and humorous) examples and excuse-proof steps to implementation, and they have backed everything up with stats and research to prove that these ideas drive results. It's a must read! - Rilla Delorier, Independent Board Director Bank marketing is broken-marketers either tout their low fees or promise to help customers 'achieve their dreams.' Netzer and High debunk these approaches and help bank marketers understand that creating a brand-something that consumers have an emotional connection with through their experiences with the bank-is the only path to marketing success for financial institutions. - Ron Shevlin, Author and Chief Research Officer at Cornerstone Advisors Consumers have changed.
