Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flexibility, specialization, and niche marketing are buzzwords in the business literature these days, yet few realize that it was these elements that helped the United States first emerge as a global manufacturing leader between the Civil War and World War I. The huge mass production-based businesses--steel, oil, and autos--have long been given sole credit for this emergence. In Endless Novelty, Philip Scranton boldly recasts the history of this vital episode in the development of American business, known as the nation's second industrial revolution, by considering the crucial impact of trades featuring specialty, not standardized, production. Scranton takes us on a grand tour through American specialty firms and districts, where, for example, we meet printers and jewelry makers in New York and Providence, furniture builders in Grand Rapids, and tool specialists in Cincinnati. Throughout he highlights the benevolent as well as the strained relationships between workers and proprietors, the lively interactions among entrepreneurs and city leaders, and the personal achievements of industrial engineers like Frederic W. Taylor. Scranton shows that in sectors producing goods such as furniture, jewelry, machine tools, and electrical equipment, firms made goods to order or in batches, and industrial districts and networks flourished, creating millions of jobs. These enterprises relied on flexibility, skilled labor, close interactions with clients, suppliers, and rivals, and opportunistic pricing to generate profit streams. They built interfirm alliances to manage markets and fashioned specialized institutions--trade schools, industrial banks, labor bureaus, and sales consortia. In creating regional synergies and economies of scope and diversity, the approaches of these industrial firms represent the inverse of mass production. Challenging views of company organization that have come to dominate the business world in the United States, Endless Novelty will appeal to historians, business leaders, and to anyone curious about the structure of American industry.

These 30 Lessons are presently in order, to get you fully immersed in the way you'll market your wares/products/services, from now on, which will allow you to: Stop advertising for your competitors. (This is crazy, but there are so many examples like Tesco/Sainsbury's Advertising for Aldi, IN their supermarket; where the customer is in the ultimate buying mood, or the USA for the Russian Space Program) Get business from the people that see your Ads. (That's why you're spending money right?) Use these ideas, and become effective in your marketing efforts. (That's my goal for you) These value-packed lessons will instruct you step by step: 1) How to effectively spend your small/large advertising Dollars. 2) Advertise so that people come to your online (brick-and-mortar) store to buy what you advertise, not go buy something similar from your competitor; thanks to your advertising reminding them! (This is Huge) 3) Use the profits that you will now rake in, to improve sales results, going forward. Because you also learn how to track your advertising spend, so you know the true effectiveness of your marketing efforts. Something most Advertising agencies, will not want to talk about. Return on your Ad Spends' Effectiveness. 4) Quit the Advertising Club where 70 - 100, yes 100% of Marketing spend go to die. (Imagine spending $5M, Five Flipping Million Dollars, and getting ZERO Sales, this is no joke) Get reading and Start reaching people in the most beneficial way for you or your clients business.

Takes you through what an Ad Agency would do for you. Which means you'll learn how to get your copy material, in the proper format, to a printer if you'd like to make use of Print Ads like Newspapers and Magazines, as opposed to just digital (online) ads. His experience with the selling and merchandising, means, you can simply utilise these lessons in you or your clients' business today, knowing they work. Every business owner, whether in physical brick and mortar stores, or selling directly to your customers in web stores online. Should read this book, and put these lessons to work. What I love about creativity in advertising, is it levels the playing field. Whether you are a small business owner, or a humongous world dominating billion dollar company. As Guy says, the copywriter of a 'small store,' has no excuse to write bad copy just because they’re writing copy for a 'small' business. Remember, people are people. We all want, and desire safety, money, romance, status etc. So, use these practical lessons to finally advertise and sell and merchandise, with results. Stop the waste of 70 to 100% of your marketing and Advertising Dollars. Use these ideas, and become more effective in your marketing efforts. All the best! -Billy
