Seth Godin's new book is sure to be a shot in the arm to small business, as it points out the many advantages small businesses have, such as the ability to carve out a niche and serve it well, and to react quickly to changing market conditions without layers of unneeded bureaucacy.
A great blog post regarding this must-read book can be found at the Duct Tape Marketing site - http://www.ducttapemarketing.com/weblog.php?id=P698
This book is also just brimming with sage marketing advice that is applicable to TODAY'S markets. I especially like the checklist of what all good marketers should know, which included the profound statement that marketers are responsible for the side effects their product can cause. This is a point worth pondering for all of us!
