What marketing lessons can we learn from the Greeks and Romans, their mythology, philosophy and vocabulary? In this book, a marketing expert and lapsed classicist casts new light on marketing through an exploration of ancient Rome and Greece.  Expect to be enlightened and enthralled by why "author" comes from the same Latin word as "authority", and what that tells us about storytelling. Why a segmentation based on Apollo and Dionysus might bring new insight to your comms. And why Socrates found out about cognitive dissonance the hard way. This book brings 2,000-year-old thinking, many of which formed the foundations of our society today, to provide creative and surprising insights into marketing and business today.

Neoclassical economics assumes that most people have well-defined preferences and make well-informed, self-interested decisions based on those preferences. But in the real world, this is often not the case. This book combines elements of economics and psychology to help you understand how and why consumers behave the way they really do. Using behavioural economics as the foundation, the author explains the anomalies in consumer choices and what really influences human behaviour, preferences and decision-making. Often the case, emotional as well as economic factors play a vital role in consumer behaviour. Therefore, behavioural economics can be an important aid to business and marketing strategies by understanding how consumer decisions can be influenced.
