Real People, Real Choices

Ninth Edition

Note from the uploader:

This book is too expensive for most people and it is too new (As 1/21/18) to be found anywhere. If you want to find books like this in the future you can follow these instructions.

Stuff you need: Amazon account, Kindle for PC, money that you will get refunded, greenshot screenshot manager.

1) Find the ebook version on amazon 2) Rent to Kindle PC 3) Install greenshot and capture the portion of the screen which the book is in.

a. Make sure to select a key combination that is easy to press so that you can just hit next page followed by the screenshot command. Example: I use ctrl + space to activate taking a screenshot of the page portion

4) Ideally, export to a .tiff file (Change greenshot settings) 5) Combine files using a pdf program. I use acrobat but that’s a pirated program so idk what else

out there a. If you don’t have a program, after step 4, install something like winrar or 7 zip (free) to

keep all the files neatly in one place. 6) MOST IMPORTANT: Refund Amazon purchase

a. This should all be done within 12 hours of buying the ebook from amazon b. Don’t abuse the refund thing too much because they might catch up to you and ban

your account or something idk.

I’m a broke college kid and I’m just trying to help the rest of you broke fools out.

Enjoy the book. I might do this more often cuz I ain’t trying to drop gs I can’t afford to be droppin right now.

~Preface WHAT'S NEW IN THE NINTH EDITION? What's new in the ninth edition is what's new in marketing. To put it simply. we foe.I a newcomer to marketing today needs to g;rapple with three core issues: Value, analytics and

metrics, and ethical and sustainable marketing;. Herc's just a sample of what we changed in this edition:

• Today's marketer needs to be .. a numbers person." lncreasingly,. the field is data driven,

and sophisticated analytics are revolutionizing the options organizations have at their fingertips to create, deliver, and m

and metrics, and in this edition we've continued to expand that coverage significantly to show how marketers use the exciting new toots they have available to understand and ha.mess ,..Big Data" as they strive to identify and meet customer needs. To reinforce

this focus throughout the book, each chapter provides a Melr-ics Moment box that de .. scribes some important ways to measure key marketing concepts and each chapter also includes an Apply Marketiug Metrics ~erci.se at the end.

• ln U,e cighth edition, we wen~ proud to be the first marketing principles textbook to devote an entire chapter (Chapter 5) to the =crgmg and ,•ital topic of Big Data and ma.rketing anal),tics. Now in the ninth edition we've greatly expanded that chaptct's

coverage to include nwnerous new key tlmnS, many more applic.ation examples to connect concepts to practice, and several nc-w tables and figures to further iUustrate this fascinating chapter material.

• The ninth edition shines an even larg~ spotlight on the importance oJ e thical and

sustainable marketing. The topic is so important to today's students that our cover• age of ethical issues begins right up front in Chapter 2. As soon as the s tudent basically understands what marketing is, he or she begins to learn how it should be. And ead\

chapter provides a boxed feature called Ripped from the Headlines: Ethical/Sustainable Decisions in the Real World. Here we describe a questionable marketing practice and then ask students for th.cir opinion on lhe subject All 14 of these boxes arc new for the ninth edition, induding attention to such firms as Coca..Cola, ChipotJc, Volkswagen, Kimberly Oark, and Allstar (the "Snuggie").

• Each chapter continues to fcature a Marketing in Action mini.case at the end, and 13

of these are brand new for the ninth edition. Among the exciting firms with interesting problems and opportunities featured in these cases arc Getfeedback, Airbus, Sprig, Faccl>ook, Disney, Target, and Alit>aba.

• The dOOS-ion•focUSL>d Real People vignettes that frame each chapter arc one of the sig• nature features of our book. We continue this tradjtion in the ninth edition with seven

new vignettes (50 percent of the total). These new vignettes include executives from Twitter, Campbell Soup, Weight Watchers, Levi Strauss, Quaker, BOP International,

and Pitch (the advertising agency for Burger King).

• We emphasize active learning and decision making because we kn.ow that is what l?m•

ployers sc>ck in today's graduates. We further sharpen our focus on employability in the ninth edition with the debut of a new supplemental fcatute, found in MyMarkct·· ingLab, called "Rising Stars in Marketing.• Here we present video clips contributed by

xiii

XIV I PREFACE

roo,nt suc=sful graduates of marketing programs around the country. E!ach pc,son shares advice about jol,.,secking and offers "do's and do.n'ts'., to current readers. These clips are indexed by job type, so students have the option of exploring career wisdom from those who have followed the same path thei• hope to take.

• Last but-certainly not least, as always we pride ourselves on the currency of ourcontc.,,t Today's student descr1cs to know what is going on in the marketing world today-and also tomorrow to the extent we can pn.>dict il Herc is a sampling of new Key Terms we introduce in the ninth edition:Ninth Edition •

1) Find the ebook version on amazon 2) Rent to Kindle PC 3) Install greenshot and capture the portion of the screen which the book is in.

a. Make sure to select a key combination that is easy to press so that you can just hit next page followed by the screenshot command. Example: I use ctrl + space to activate taking a screenshot of the page portion

4) Ideally, export to a .tiff file (Change greenshot settings) 5) Combine files using a pdf program. I use acrobat but that’s a pirated program so idk what else

out there a. If you don’t have a program, after step 4, install something like winrar or 7 zip (free) to

keep all the files neatly in one place. 6) MOST IMPORTANT: Refund Amazon purchase

a. This should all be done within 12 hours of buying the ebook from amazon b. Don’t abuse the refund thing too much because they might catch up to you and ban

your account or something idk.

I’m a broke college kid and I’m just trying to help the rest of you broke fools out.

Enjoy the book. I might do this more often cuz I ain’t trying to drop gs I can’t afford to be droppin right now.

~Preface WHAT'S NEW IN THE NINTH EDITION? What's new in the ninth edition is what's new in marketing. To put it simply. we foe.I a newcomer to marketing today needs to g;rapple with three core issues: Value, analytics and

metrics, and ethical and sustainable marketing;. Herc's just a sample of what we changed in this edition:

• Today's marketer needs to be .. a numbers person." lncreasingly,. the field is data driven,

and sophisticated analytics are revolutionizing the options organizations have at their fingertips to create, deliver, and m

and metrics, and in this edition we've continued to expand that coverage significantly to show how marketers use the exciting new toots they have available to understand and ha.mess ,..Big Data" as they strive to identify and meet customer needs. To reinforce

this focus throughout the book, each chapter provides a Melr-ics Moment box that de .. scribes some important ways to measure key marketing concepts and each chapter also includes an Apply Marketiug Metrics ~erci.se at the end.

• ln U,e cighth edition, we wen~ proud to be the first marketing principles textbook to devote an entire chapter (Chapter 5) to the =crgmg and ,•ital topic of Big Data and ma.rketing anal),tics. Now in the ninth edition we've greatly expanded that chaptct's

coverage to include nwnerous new key tlmnS, many more applic.ation examples to connect concepts to practice, and several nc-w tables and figures to further iUustrate this fascinating chapter material.

• The ninth edition shines an even larg~ spotlight on the importance oJ e thical and

sustainable marketing. The topic is so important to today's students that our cover• age of ethical issues begins right up front in Chapter 2. As soon as the s tudent basically understands what marketing is, he or she begins to learn how it should be. And ead\

chapter provides a boxed feature called Ripped from the Headlines: Ethical/Sustainable Decisions in the Real World. Here we describe a questionable marketing practice and then ask students for th.cir opinion on lhe subject All 14 of these boxes arc new for the ninth edition, induding attention to such firms as Coca..Cola, ChipotJc, Volkswagen, Kimberly Oark, and Allstar (the "Snuggie").

• Each chapter continues to fcature a Marketing in Action mini.case at the end, and 13

of these are brand new for the ninth edition. Among the exciting firms with interesting problems and opportunities featured in these cases arc Getfeedback, Airbus, Sprig, Faccl>ook, Disney, Target, and Alit>aba.

• The dOOS-ion•focUSL>d Real People vignettes that frame each chapter arc one of the sig• nature features of our book. We continue this tradjtion in the ninth edition with seven

new vignettes (50 percent of the total). These new vignettes include executives from Twitter, Campbell Soup, Weight Watchers, Levi Strauss, Quaker, BOP International,

and Pitch (the advertising agency for Burger King).

• We emphasize active learning and decision making because we kn.ow that is what l?m•

ployers sc>ck in today's graduates. We further sharpen our focus on employability in the ninth edition with the debut of a new supplemental fcatute, found in MyMarkct·· ingLab, called "Rising Stars in Marketing.• Here we present video clips contributed by

xiii

roo,nt suc=sful graduates of marketing programs around the country. E!ach pc,son shares advice about jol,.,secking and offers "do's and do.n'ts'., to current readers. These clips are indexed by job type, so students have the option of exploring career wisdom from those who have followed the same path thei• hope to take.

• Last but-certainly not least, as always we pride ourselves on the currency of ourcontc.,,t Today's student descr1cs to know what is going on in the marketing world today-and also tomorrow to the extent we can pn.>dict il Herc is a sampling of new Key Terms we introduce in the ninth edition:
