Sounds exciting except for the fact that we're doing absolutely nothing about it. Zero. Simply put, under current operating conditions, the advertising industry will not be able to sustain itself and without taking action, is likely to result in severe to catastrophic outcomes- from financial underperformance to job loss to even a collapse of the current media ecosystem. The solution? The Marketing Model can be fixed by slashing your ad budget, and investing in the Z.E.R.O. ZealotsEarned (Media)Real CustomersOwned (Media)

This was an excellent marketing book in terms of planning and changing culture. The zero paid media concept is an excellent objective and the shift to customer retention from acquisition makes perfect sense.

Solid primer that goes a few steps beyond the typical "get with digital" in most marketing books.

Love the examples, stats and real world and realistic perspective. These guys write like people not consultants and the more than frequent dashes of (nerdy) humor make this a fast read.
