Can't Buy Me Like: How Authentic Customer Connections Drive Superior Results

Today’s brands face an apparent choice between two evils: continuing to slash their increasingly ineffective advertising, or putting blind faith in the supposedly mystical power of social media, where “likes” stand in for transactions and a mass audience is maddeningly elusive. There has to be a better way… As Lennon and McCartney wrote a half century ago, money can’t buy you love. But in today’s world where people have become desensitized – even disillusioned – by ad campaigns and marketing slogans, that maxim is even truer: Money can’t even buy you like. That’s because we’ve entered the “Relationship Era” where the only path for businesses seeking long-term success is to create authentic customer relationships. Discover powerful new research, fascinating examples, and practical advice to illustrate how any company can thrive in the “Relationship Era”.
