Right, just to make this clear, I wasn't listening exclusively to this, I was listening to it while playing poker, so my opinion can't be trusted completely, but I was sufficiently taken with the 'book' to write a review.

It's quite short, well read and doesn't spend time labouring over insignificant details. There's nothing ground breaking in this book and the majority of it's content is based on branding and the principle of being the first to market, the first into the customers mind and therefore becoming 'The Brand' by default.

There's a lot small businesses can take from this and, although almost a cliche in marketing circles, they make some very valid points as to why 'micro niching' is better than being all things to all people.

They use many examples (in American big business) where they show a company starts with a very specific market and business, then expands only to lose what made them big in the first place and ultimately fall apart.

To summarise, short, concise, well read, sufficiently engrossing and I expect to listen to this repeatedly. I didn't give it 5 because I don't feel many who are involved in marketing will find anything particularly new.

A decent book

Would you listen to The 22 Immutable Laws of Marketing again? Why?

Really, really useful information in here, the laws are very true and very clearly defined, however the tone of both authors who are reading the book can be a little monotonous, and therefore a little hard going. Being a short listen its not too much of a problem

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

A little more vocal variety.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Its all really good information

Any additional comments?

Its a really good short book, it was very useful for me to have a look at the rules as they were describing them, I found on a good search some fantastic mind maps of the rules. Would be fantastic if this could be included with the purchase of the audible book. as a downloadable PDF.

Great information, but a little dry

What about Al Ries and Jack Trout ’s performance did you like?

Straightforwrd - albeit American - delivery

Any additional comments?

Gives you the reality of getting your marketing messages out there. Where to focus, what works and importantly, what doesn't.

Vital for everyone in business

Really enjoy this book have listened multiple times and have put some into practise and it is surprising how effective they can be. I did however read Tim Ferriss first and it led me to this audible book! Be prepared to reflect on your current ways of doing things and look to improve your marketing with the use of this book! A must listen/read

Great Laws
