An irreverent and wide-ranging treatise on building and maintaining a standout brand in business or in life, from the marketing mastermind behind countless iconic booze labels. Steven Grasse made a name for himself as not only a distiller but also the mind behind beloved brands like Hendrick's Gin and Sailor Jerry Rum and the guy who made cheap-beer-standbys like Narragansett and Miller High Life cool again. Through his work in advertising and marketing, Grasse has changed the game in the booze world and become an authority on building an authentic, enduring, and deeply beloved brand. Food & Wine has called him "the punk-rock prince of small-batch spirits." So how did he do it? Through practicing brand mysticism, a mentality for all endeavors based on keeping an open mind, taking risks, and developing authenticity-skills that have benefited him in booze, business, and beyond. In this book, he's sharing this practice with the world. Through lessons (big life things that feel like just cool stories), case studies (how did Sailor Jerry become the punk rock Captain Morgan?), and magical ingredients (what makes a great message sing), Brand Mysticism guides you through the steps it takes to channel entrepreneurial spirit into a brand, a business, a creative practice, or a life that breaks with tradition to achieve the remarkable.

For the first time, authors have direct access to the public via the Internet - and can create a community eagerly awaiting their book. But where do new authors start? How do they sort through the dizzying range of online options? Where should they spend their time online and what should they be doing? Enter Fauzia Burke, a digital book marketing pioneer and friend of overwhelmed writers everywhere. She takes authors step - by - step through the process of identifying their unique personal brand, defining their audience, clarifying their aspirations and goals, and setting priorities.

By following Burke's expert advice, authors can conquer the Internet and still get their next manuscript in on time.

The world of mass media, in which a few, prime national outlets controlled the messages we all see and hear, has largely vanished. The giant boulders you once had to move to get coverage - Oprah, the New York Times, CNN - have been smashed by the Internet, supplanted (but not entirely replaced) by scores of pebbles: the web sites, social media, blogs, podcasts and more that ace publicists Barbara Cave Henricks and Rusty Shelton call micromedia. This new breed of outlets is key to capturing public attention. Henricks and Shelton urge you to think less like a marketer and more like a media executive. Using real world examples and colorful anecdotes, they explain how to build a direct channel to your audience that you own. They offer tips for making the best use of rented space on forums like LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube, among others. Further, they illustrate how attention in the online world can help you get the earned media attention of the still powerful outlets in the traditional space. This book puts you at the controls of creating momentum and building a personal audience. It allows you to take action, rather than wait for the media gatekeepers to unlock their doors or the general public to create the groundswell of ''''going viral.'''' Henricks and Shelton look past the attention - getting stunts to reveal the solid strategies and tactics that work.

Wenn Personen mit hohem Einkommen eine Einkaufssituation mit Kunden mit niedrigem Einkommen erleben, konnen sie eine Bedrohung ihrer sozialen Identitat erfahren. Kateryna Ukrainets untersucht zwei Faktoren, die zu dieser Auswirkung fuhren: die soziale Stigmatisierung von sozialen Gruppen mit niedrigem Einkommen, die in einer Gesellschaft mit hoher Machtdistanz vorherrscht, und eine gruppenbezogene Selbstdiskrepanz, die ein Kunde mit hohem Einkommen in einer Einkaufssituation mit niedrigen Preisen erlebt. Unabhangig von ihren Quellen hat die Bedrohung der sozialen Identitat nachweislich negative Auswirkungen auf das Konsumentenverhalten und als Folge davon auf die finanzielle Performance eines Unternehmens. Auf der Basis mehrerer empirischer Untersuchungen zeigt die vorliegende Arbeit die Rolle des kulturellen Wertes der Machtdistanz auf den Effekt der sozialen Stigmatisierung von Personen mit niedrigem Einkommen auf das Konsumentenverhalten von Personen mit hohem Einkommen in einem Niedrigpreis-Einkaufskontext. Auerdem wird gezeigt, welche Marketinginstrumente Unternehmen einsetzen konnen, um eine soziale Identitatsbedrohung zu entscharfen.
