Uniting industry experience with academic expertise, the authors combine marketing communications and advertising with the branding perspective, providing students with a practical planning system and a seven-step approach to creating a comprehensive marketing plan. The new SAGE Marketing Communications textbook is a contemporary evolution of the well-known Rossiter and Percy Advertising and Promotion Management textbook, which at its peak was adopted by six of the top 10 U. S. business schools – Stanford, Wharton, Columbia, Berkeley, UCLA, and Northwestern – as well as by the London Business School, Oxford’s Said Business School, and by most of the top business schools in Europe such as Erasmus University Rotterdam, INSEAD, and the Stockholm School of Economics. Key features include: An author analytical approach with checklist frameworks in chapters, providing students with a systematic guide to doing marketing communications. A managerial perspective, helping students to become a marketing manager and study as though they are in the role. Coverage of key new marketing communications topics such as branding and social media. In each of the end-of-chapter questions there are mini-cases that involve real brands, and the numerous examples throughout the text refer to globally known brands such as Gillette, Mercedes, Revlon, and Toyota. The book is supported by online instructor resources, including PowerPoint slides and teaching outlines for each chapter, multiple choice exam questions and answers, team project templates, true and false quizzes and answers, and an instructor manual. Suitable for Marketing Communications and Advertising & Promotion modules at UG and PG levels.

Förord Under de senaste 12 åren har jag arbetat med att coacha arbetssökande eller sjukskrivna personer. Det har varit ett arbete med mycket glädje och mycket förtvivlan. Att se en människa resa sig och återfå självförtroendet efter att ha varit långt nere i hopplösheten är något som jag kan leva länge på. Lika ledsamt är det att inte lyckas nå fram till en person så att han kan ta emot hjälpen. Jag har läst mycket coachlitteratur men inte funnit någon som handlar om det speciella med att coacha dessa grupper. Coachinglitteraturen utgår ifrån att den som skall coachas har gott självförtroende och vill bli coachad. Eftersom jag under åren som coach har utarbetat en metod för att coacha arbetssökande och sjukskrivna som jag vet ger bra resultat, vill jag dela med mig av den till er andra som coachar dessa grupper. För att åskådliggöra texten och för att lätta upp den har jag bett en tecknare göra en figur som kan visa vad vi menar. Vi har döpt honom till Willmer Jag har försökt vara kortfattad och ge boken karaktären av en handledning och inte en avhandling. Detta för att den skall kunna vara ett stöd i det dagliga arbetet. Därför har jag i slutet av boken lagt in ett antal övningar som du kan använda i ditt coacharbete. Jag hoppas att du kommer att ha stor användning av boken i ditt arbete.
