Purple Cow: Transform Your Business by Being Remarkable
What if blending in was the riskiest choice of all? In The Purple Cow, Seth Godin thrusts you into the high-stakes arena of modern business, where a maverick marketer battles a world obsessed with conformity—and discovers survival demands becoming radically remarkable. But when your boldest innovation sparks ridicule instead of reverence, do you retreat to safety… or risk everything to transform—or perish—in a sea of sameness?

Description
The cult classic that revolutionized marketing by teaching businesses that you’re either remarkable or invisible.
You’re either a Purple Cow or you’re not. You’re either remarkable or invisible. Make your choice. What do Apple, Starbucks, Dyson and Pret a Manger have in common? How do they achieve spectacular growth, leaving behind former tried-and-true brands to gasp their last? The old checklist of P’s used by marketers – Pricing, Promotion, Publicity – aren’t working anymore. The golden age of advertising is over. It’s time to add a new P – the Purple Cow. “Purple Cow” describes something phenomenal, something counterintuitive and exciting and flat-out unbelievable. In his new bestseller, Seth Godin urges you to put a Purple Cow into everything you build, and everything you do, to create something truly noticeable. It’s a manifesto for anyone who wants to help create products and services that are worth marketing in the first place.
