Accidental Branding and Trendspotting for the Next Decade

One of the many perks to having a blog with a decent amount of traffic and the word ‘marketing’ in the title is that publishers send you books for free.

In the last month I received Accidental Branding by David Vinjamuri and 2011: Trendspotting For The Next Decade by Richard Laermer who coauthored Punk Marketing. Accidental Branding came with a yummy Clif Bar which makes a bit more sense after reading chapter 5.

Book publishers send us these books in hopes that we’ll help promote them on our blog. They even offer us interviews with the authors. Unfortunately I’ve been too busy to read both of these books and do a review or interview. I want to reward the publishers (Wiley and McGraw Hill) for sending me that yummy Clif bar, and the books (in that particular order) so I found excellent reviews that others have done on the books.

I really do want to read both of these books and probably will at some point.

If you own a blog and want to receive books like this before they hit the newsstand, make a call to a few publishers and tell them to send books to you.

Note to self. To get reviews send candy bars. Good stuff.

What a great idea - linking to reviews that have been done. A lot of people would have just “swiped” the content and thrown their name on it.

I like your style!
