Rating: ![2 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-2-0.gif) Summary: Uninspired Review: This book could be useful if you've never taken a marketing course and you prefer to read at a junior high level (most sentences are about six words long). Like too many business books, the content in "Positioning" could have been condensed to a magazine article, making it about 200 pages shorter and much more compelling and pithy. Consider this book to be "positioning light", a collection of anecdotes and assertions. Look elsewhere if you want concrete examples supported by any sort of analytical rigor.
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: As good as it gets Review: This book did far more than convince me to choose marketing and advertising as a career. It formed the foundation for my understanding, and rapidly accelerated my growth to where today, 16 years after beginning that career, the agency I head works with some of the world's premier companies, including Microsoft, ABC, and Wells Fargo. The book is notable for its clarity-something certainly not notable in most business books-and its persuasiveness in advancing the author's argument that positioning, only a little more than reading this book itself, is a critical step to successful marketing.

Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: A must read book Review: This is probably the best marketing book that I ever read. If you have just started to read about marketing, I think you must start reading this book. You will learn about the basic concept of marketing: positioning. An advice: don't loose your time reading The New Positioning, that in my point of view is an attempt to bring up-to-date Positioning. Read Positioning again. My best regards, Alexandre
