Marketing Wins
The book, chapter by chapter
Nine chapters of integrated-marketing fundamentals: the strategy that has to be right before any tool, AI included, can do its best work.
Chapter 1: Brief History of Marketing
From the broadcast-and-hope era of print, TV and radio to the customer-led digital funnel: Chapter 1 sets the context every later chapter builds on, closing with Elliott's first-hand account of the dot-com boom and crash.
Chapter 2: Digital Marketing Strategy 101
Chapter 2 maps the digital marketing funnel from awareness to retention, and shows how earned, paid and owned media work together at every stage of the customer journey.

Chapter 3 builds the marketing plan: the FiMO model, vision, values and mission, SMART objectives, customer personas and the USP your marketing messages will carry into every channel.
Chapter 4: Digital Marketing Tools and Tactics
Chapter 4 walks the digital marketing funnel end to end: four awareness tools, the owned media that engages and converts, and the retention tactics that turn loyal customers into advocates.
Chapter 5: Search

Chapter 6: Social Media
Social media turned marketing from broadcast into dialogue. Chapter 6 covers reach, engagement, the key channels and the three pillars of a winning social strategy.
Chapter 7: Websites

Chapter 8: Creating a Branded Video Series
A single great video is a moment; a series is a relationship. Chapter 8 walks through the five steps of branded episodic video, from strategy and planning to production, editing and distribution.
