Marketing as a discipline is undergoing a decisive paradigm shift and how we do things is rapidly changing. Digital marketing is evolving from a niche discipline into the mainstream [...] it's not a nice-to-have anymore, but is now a must-have and is quickly establishing itself as the new standard for marketing principles in the 21st century. Annmarie Hanlon’s textbook has all the qualities of becoming a beacon for marketing practitioners and academics to provide guidance in the new realities of marketing.
Relevant and suitable for intended syllabus
Excellent book. It is easy for first year students to follow. Not overly complex. It also covers the importance of managing content. Good tasks and discussion points, and a very helpful tutor guide. We have the previous edition in our library, which I will have them upgrade.
This textbook has been adopted as the core text for this module. It provides the theoretical underpinning and practical application guidance. This textbook will also be adopted across our Charted Institute of Marketing modules.
This is a comprehensive and detailed resource that I am going to add to my reading lists for multiple digitally related modules. It is written in a way that my L4 students will be able to digest as well as my L6 and PG students to use to help guide them.
