Kurzbeschreibung
It's a new era of business and consumerism--and you play a role in defining it
Today's biggest trends--the mobile web, social media, real-time--have produced a new consumer landscape. The End of Business As Usual explores this complex information revolution, how it has changed the future of business, media, and culture, and what you can do about it.
"To be successful in business, you need to see what others don't. Start with this book. Someone's going to do it, why not you?"
--Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavericks and Chairman of HDNet
"Innovation has always changed the business landscape. People expect to access information anywhere, anytime, and on any device. Collaborative, cloud, and video technologies are leading this change. As Mr. Solis correctly writes, companies have to lead this change, not follow."
--John Chambers, CEO of Cisco Systems, Inc.
"Winning the hearts and minds of customers with new media experiences will turn them into your most valuable sales force. Solis's book is the map to unleash this treasure."
--Peter Guber, author of Tell to Win: Connect, Persuade, and Triumph with the Hidden Power of Story

New networks have created an ever- expanding "egosystem," in which everyday people believe their lives deserve 24-hour broadcasts. But now, we need to decipher the significance of this behavior and understand where the social and mobile web are headed. At the heart of all of this, a new breed of consumer is emerging--and they're changing the very foundation of business.
The End of Business As Usual explores each layerof this complex consumer revolution that is changingthe future of business, media, and culture. As consumers connect with one another, a vast and efficient information network takes shape and begins to steer experiences, decisions, and markets. It is nothing short of disruptive.
The End of Business As Usual will change the way you view the world of business, from sales and marketing to customer service and product development to leadership and culture. Its critical insights include:Shared experiences are redefining brands indigital consumer landscapes, and astute brands can now also create and steer these experiencesConsumer influence is growing, and businesses can use this to their advantageConnect with a rising audience (and with audiences of audiences) through new touchpoints between consumers, brands, and new influencersCreate a culture of change to earn trust, influence, and significance among connected customers

Raise the significance of your business and your brand by implementing new ways to connect, learn, and adapt.
