Why you should read Sales Promotion

Louisiana governor Huey Long, a populist and a demagogue, once said, “Let’s put the jam jar on the lower shelf where the little man can reach it.” Sales promotion does just that for ordinary shoppers. It lets people save money and shows off your product. Roddy Mullin and Julian Cummins know about sales promotion like Madonna knows about celebrity. In their new book, they expertly explain how sales promotion works, what it can accomplish and what common pitfalls to avoid. The book’s only drawback: It has a British bent that may deter readers in other countries. getAbstract suggests that any marketer who plans a sales promotion campaign without reading this book first should forever forfeit his or her “buy one, get one free” privileges.
