Bestselling authors and world-renowned marketing strategists Al and Laura Ries usher in the new era of public relations.

In fact, an astonishing number of brands, including Palm, Starbucks, the Body Shop, Wal-Mart, Red Bull and Zara have been built with virtually no advertising.
Using in-depth case histories of successful PR campaigns coupled with those of unsuccessful advertising campaigns, The Fall of Advertising provides valuable ideas for marketers — all the while demonstrating why
Bold and accessible, The Fall of Advertising is bound to turn the world of marketing upside down.
