Ad Man
Author: Ray Bisso
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1462831842
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Ad Man centers on the rise and fall of Jeff Hanford, a Classified Manager who, because of personal sexual hang-ups and sometimes injudicious, sometimes cruel, sometimes idealistic business attitudes falls victim to his own inner drives. The story is told from the point of view of three persons who closely observed him and whose lives are changed by Jeff Hanford's bizarre managerial behavior: Al Carmine, Jeff's loyal friend and outside sales manager; Sally Wells, Jeff's secretary and victimized lover; Dana Randolph, Sally's close friend and perceptive natural leader among the telephone advertising saleswomen. Ad Man is set in the Classified Advertising department of a daily newspaper, which has traditionally been low paying, female oriented, and neglected as its least glamorous section. The story takes place in the 1960's, prior to computerization, at a time of enlarging advertising revenues, and emerging feminist consciousness in the Classified section of the Daily Huntington in Southern California.

Admen, Mad Men, and the Real World of Advertising

Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1628726210
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 199
Book Description
A bestselling author and advertising veteran shares a life’s lessons from the ad trade. Dave Marinaccio, cofounder and the creative director of LMO Advertising, is a veteran of the industry who, as a young man starting out, studied stand-up at Second City in Chicago. He later wrote an international bestseller, All I Really Need to Know I Learned from Watching Star Trek. His equally entertaining new book takes us inside the world of advertising, offering stories and observations from his three decades at some of America's best-known agencies, working with clients from Pizza Hut to the Holocaust Museum. In short, punchy chapters, Dave pulls back the curtain and shares his insights on how marketing decisions are made and other lessons. His topics range from logos, the big idea, and selling perfume to how we undervalue our gifts, to do-overs, celebrities, and "meetingsmanship." And more than a few lessons turn out to be apt not just for business but for our stressed-out lives. Admen, Mad Men, and the Real World of Advertising is written to be easily digestible by interns, CEOS, or anyone who has ever watched a television commercial or clicked on a banner ad. Irreverent, packed with useful information, and unflinchingly honest, it is a serious business book by a seriously funny man and a must for anyone who lives, works, or plays in today's commercial culture.
