The definitive guide for our times

I am a marketing professional, and this is the book I don't want my clients to buy! I was a journalist for many years and then worked in a government PR position and in both capacities was inundated with tons of useless expensive PR junk assembled by Madison Avenue PR firms at great cost to their clients. I laughed at nearly all of it. I wish I had saved it to show my current clients as examples of how NOT to spend their money. When I read the first edition of this book back in 2009 it was like a recognition of everything I knew and practiced. It was also a validation of my beliefs about the junk I was receiving when I worked in journalism and government. Fast forward four years and times have changed even more, to the point that I found I needed help sorting through all the options now available, especially blogs and social media. Like the first edition, the second edition of this book is my favorite reference book. No telling how much money it's helped me make for me and my clients.

As a designer I always try to learn new skill sets to provide to my clientele. Usually I am bored stiff with what's out there regarding marketing techniques. The read was easy to follow with great case studies. His writing style makes it easy to digest while providing great information to the uninitiated. If you are looking to gain a better understanding to better promote your business this is a must have. After alot of research on similar books I found this one to be the most informative without sounding preachy.

Why Reaching Traditional Media Is Not Enough

Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2011

Verified Purchase

As David Meerman Scott explains very well and detailed in his book "The New Rules of marketing & PR", companies have the possibility to reach out directly to consumers through the new media, without necessarily gaining attention of journalists, traditional gatekeepers of information for the masses, or buying expensive ads on radio, TV and print outlets. In an easy-to-read an entertaining way, David gives a complete round up on the use of social media, online video, mobile applications, blogs, news releases and viral marketing techniques to reach the buyers directly.


I found very interesting the concept of "buyer persona", the buyer profile every company should come up with before to decide the communications strategy. Indeed, very important thing is to focus time and money on those platforms and channels where the buyer personas for a specific product are. There are too many tools out there, a marketer should pick just the ones that matter for that company.


I would recommend this book to all the PR and marketing pro that want to get an overall description of the challenges and new opportunities marketers face with new media. Highly recommended.

Although this is my first Internet Marketing book, I gotta say it was an excellent book as it gave me a nice mapping on how Internet Marketing works by not only giving me guidelines, but also answering one of the questions I had about 'not-having-a-product' to market. In fact, it even answered questions that I didn't know I would have had, had I not read the book. It is not just a conceptual book, but I find it as a useful start-up workbook to refer to as I begin building my business model... Thanks Dave!

Nothing Short of Transformative

Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2012

Verified Purchase

David's book has totally opened my eyes to the potential of the internet for marketing, I was completely unaware of the possibilities until I came across this magnificent book.


Our company has always grown through word-of-mouth; The New Rules showed me that the techniques he advocates are word-of-mouth on steroids. I can truly say that we have tapped into a gusher.


The book is well laid out, and well written. It is not full of technical jargon or programing-ese; those would have scared me away. In fact, the book steers the reader into use of services and applications that are incredibly user-friendly. I am amazed that the social networking tools he got me using were so well integrated and thoughtfully designed.


This book is nothing short of transformative. But caveat emptor: While David leaves no stone unturned helping the reader understand and use social networking, the real work is up to the reader to set things up, and to provide valuable content for users.

David Meerman Scott has always been a great inspiration to me. I read his blog and I've seen some interviews with him. His ideas aren't revolutionary but they are still very useful. Many people know the traditional marketing mediums, newspaper, billboard, television and so forth. What he suggests in this book is how use these traditional advertising ways along with the new ways available on the internet. For people in marketing, advertising and especially people running their own business this book is a must read. He touches on blogging, search engine optimization, web site building and such, so you can be an effective marketer on the web and reach your buyers where they are looking for you.

Yeah this book literally changed my life. I bought the original version in 2007 while studying tourism in University, read it and it changed my whole outlook on marketing and other things. As a result I started blogging, found my voice and my blog grew. That was in my native language of Icelandic and a few months later I started blogging in English. Both blogs were about fishing in Iceland. Soon after I started blogging in English I started getting enquiries about fishing in Iceland that resulted in me starting a travel agency that specializes in fishing trips in Iceland. I bought this updated version as I was putting in some more marketing efforts for the agency that has grown a lot in 3 short years. I give this book my highest recommendations.

The New Rules of Marketing & PR is a Great Resource

Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2012

Verified Purchase

The old and traditional ways for marketers to establish productive relationships for their company with customers, buyers, are no longer aligned as the most advantageous for target marketing and strategic positioning of products or services. Expensive advertising and media relationships through public relations are no longer necessary due to the instant exposure that can be available to a company or organization through the affective utilization of Web tools which are available to them for free. Of course, good content is still the driver for action to be taken by a company or organization's intended audience segment.


I found The New Rules of Marketing & PR How to Use Social Media, Online Video, Mobile Applications, Blogs, News Releases & Viral Marketing to Reach Buyers Directly by David Meerman Scott to be an exceptional resource for generating thoughts and ideas for marketers in utilizing the various platforms available on the Web. I liked that Scott's book covers all of these primary Web tools available today under one cover. The case examples in the book helped to visualize the various application platforms which were being discussed. As with any strategic marketing plan, the goals and objectives must still support and be consistent with the corporate level strategic plan.


I really gained insight into having a presence on the Web in developing company blogs as well as Twitter and Facebook accounts. It was good information provided by Scott as to utilizing Google Blog Search and the Twitter search engine to know what was being written about you or your company in real time so that you could respond to any posting; whether it be positive or negative. His advice to be as if you are a guest at a "cocktail party" in your participation on social networking Websites was also valuable information. Nobody likes to stand at a party and listen to a hard sell of a product or service by another guest. You are not at the function to buy something in the first place. The same thought process is described for social media platforms. Become friends with other members through good value idea posts or just through give and take conversation on like subjects of interest. People like to buy from their friends and they like to pass on the friend's information to other people they know as well.


Overall, the information that I learned on effective use of blogging as a part of a marketing plan was very useful. Scott writes that there are four uses of blogs for Marketing and PR: "1. To easily monitor what millions of people are saying about you, the market that you sell into, your organization, and its products. 2. To participate in those conversations by commenting on other people's blogs. 3. To work with bloggers who write about your industry, company, or products. 4. To begin to shape those conversations by creating and writing your own blog." I also liked his suggestion to get to know applicable bloggers who write about your industry and cultivate relationships with them.


Touching for a moment on the effectiveness which Marketing and PR can give in a real time environment, I enjoyed the case which describes the arrest of Paris Hilton's boy friend. Ms. Hilton sent out a Tweet to millions of followers that these were rumors which were, "Ridiculous, untrue, and cruel." The point being that, "Wynne Resorts Ltd. Spokeswoman Jennifer Dunne told the Associated Press that Hilton is barred from the company's Wynne Las Vegas and Encore hotels." Since Hilton is a hotel heiress, Wynne's ban was mentioned in every story concerning Paris Hilton's situation. Gaining Wynne Resorts millions of dollars of free publicity.


I found David Meerman Scott's book to be an excellent resource to utilize for target marketing and strategic positioning. It will become a part of my office reference library to be utilized often as I work forward in experimenting with the various aspects of the new rules of Marketing and PR.

This Book Made Me a Marketer... literally

Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2015

When I began considering starting my own marketing agency, this was the first book I read. Ignoring how inspiring it is as a call-to-action for marketers and small businesspeople to gain target market awareness with minimal funds, this book walks you through nearly every practical approach you can begin taking immediately to drive more sales in less time than it ever took you before.


What really amazed me about this book was the simplicity by which Scott uses to illustrate his points making it tangible for even the lowest of layman. Citing case studies and practical examples as he goes, he literally charts a road-map for your internet marketing and media relations success. Although I haven’t read this book in years, I’ll revisit a couple chapters at least once a month for guidance on how to best leverage a particular promotional medium for more sales, or how to better send out press releases to get published. Out of the hundreds of books about marketing I have read, this is without a doubt in my top ten. Get it today!

Practical Guide with Relevant & Compelling Case Studies

Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2011

Play Video

I've read the other two versions of Real Time Marketing & PR and it's a book I constantly reference and refer to executives looking to find a practical way to understand the benefits of participating effectively in a new media world. I've also found that social media and new media practitioners can find value in reading the book as a guide to building a thorough understanding of effective online marketing and PR that goes well beyond Facebook and Twitter.


This Third Edition, which has completely updated case studies and examples also includes a much needed Marketing and PR Strategy Plan template designed to help people get started in a step-by-step approach to social media. There's a great new chapter on measuring your success in the new media space and highlights some practical ways to start measuring your ROI. I particularly enjoyed a section entitled "The Power of Free." - Read it, it's worth the price of the book.


Finally, David Meerman Scott's new edition includes a whole new section on Mobile Marketing that covers everything from GeoLocation to Mobile Apps and Mobile Newsrooms. You'll really like his fun new concept of Cyber Graffiti.


In short, a book that's sold over 250,000 copies and set many of the Fortune 1000 company's social strategies in motion can't be ignored. You'll really enjoy the Third Edition - even if you've read the first two.


If you know what you're doing in the social space... buy a copy for your executive team. They'll immediately embrace your activities and start championing your efforts in the new media world.


In short, you can't publish a book called The New Rules of Marketing and PR in an internet age unless it's updated to still be 'New.' David's done exactly that and it's worth the read!

The best thing about this book is they keep doing new editions so David can update it.

It's not only a great read with great case studies, but unlike a lot of books out there on "new marketing" and "social media" and the like, this one is written by an experienced traditional marketer who knows his stuff, has worked with a number of quality brands and clients and has some street cred.

"Scholarly" and Fun Introduction into Internet and Social Media Marketing

Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2011

Entertaining and "scholarly" read on how the fields of Marketing and Public Relations (which the author convincingly argues currently represent a single entity) have been transformed with the advent of the Internet and social media, written in a casual, author's "own blog-voice" style.

Whether you are a manufacturer of concrete, a presidential candidate or a priest looking to reach and engage your customers, followers or fans in an effective and fun way, you will find "The New Rules of Marketing and PR" by David Meerman Scott both practical and inspiring.

While a small business owner will learn how to take advantage of the "long-tail" market phenomena and reach their niche audience, big corporations will be advised on how to put a human face on their business and marketing activities and get loyal customers without "big buck" "hype and spin" advertisement campaigns, by becoming thought leaders and honest community brokers.

Although the book's message may not appear as revolutionary as it once was (when it was first published back in 2006), it still offers a load of "fresh thinking" for marketing professionals, who might not have been fully onboard with the latest developments and the "new rules" in the field. It explains why the "old rules" no longer work in the current market place and offers concrete approaches to how to "break" them and to transform the conventional thinking of your marketing department colleagues.

The author showcases the leaders in Internet and social media marketing and provides the reader with valuable insights in how to get your audience to buy, donate, participate or join by continuously providing it with "remarkable" online content".

Finally, the book will offer you a comprehensive overview and the details on various online media platforms and the recipe on how to create your own online marketing and PR plan using blogs, podcasts, video etc.

best book of its kind

Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2012

this is the one book I recommend to any one looking to get started with social media, especially if you are running a small business or work for a non-profit. An outstanding and easy-to-read book.

Forward Thinking

Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2011

I have come across a number of "rules" that are dated and tired. Scott recognizes that marketing and PR are constantly changing and encourages readers to get out of their ruts and embrace the changes. 'New Rules' tackles social media across the spectrum. I recommend this book to anyone who needs a push into the future of marketing/PR.

Worked for me!

Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2014

I found the book exceptionally useful, Things have changed in the PR business, all for the better, but I needed to keep up. "The New Rules" was an invaluable tool for a veteran PR person like me.

A good quick ready for anybody in marketing

Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2012

Now a couple years out the book may be a bit passe but when it came out it was a great overview of all the newer forms of reaching people.


My biggest take-away was the value of video blogging. Even more powerful today.

£7 well spent on learning marketing & social media

I have read the book from cover to cover. I needed to learn what to do attract customers. To be in business you need customers and this book will give all the paths you need to take, whilst pointing out how to use what works best and given the amount of time you have. There is no point of taking on too much. Take bit sized pieces as David suggested.


I really liked the stories used as examples of a particular point helps me to remember some. ( I also made some notes)


When I consider how much my subscription was for on-line courses, which are a bit out of date they never explained new approaches. This offers up to date information at a fraction of the price.


Thanks for the advice.

ein Praktiker spricht

Reviewed in Germany on February 12, 2013

Der Ansatz wie ein Blogger zu schreiben ist super und m.E. zeitgemäß. Der Autor ist sehr praxisorientiert und vor allem labert er nicht irgendwelche Theorien aus Fachbüchern runter sondern stellt die Ansätze in Frage bezogen auf den Wandel der Zeit, Technik, des Konsumveraltens etc. Ich finde das Buch super für Praktiker und Studenten, da es sehr praxisorientiert ist und vor allem auch klassische Fehler aufzeigt, die heute gemacht werden, weil bspw. Agenturen sich nicht weiter entwickelt haben und weiter nach Ansätzen von Anno xxxx arbeiten. Man sollte alte Strukturen öfter hinterfragen, ob es noch zeitgemäß ist und kann so viel Budget sparen.
