内容简介 在线阅读本书

Purchases by women now total trillions of dollars annually, accounting for 85% of all consumer expenditures. So, reaching women should be considered the number one priority for most businesses.

Don't Think Pink will help marketers see their brands through a woman's eyes, unlocking the secrets to developing products, services, and marketing strategies that truly resonate with female buyers.

Based on painstaking research into women's experiences and perceptions, Don't Think Pink reveals:

* How generational history, culture, life stages, and daily realities influence a woman's buying mind * How the manner in which women buy is more critical than what's being sold * How listening to women earlier and more often leads to more powerful strategies * How to use the Internet and other technology -- both in market research and during the buying process -- to gain a greater understanding of female consumers * How to gain a bigger share of the awesome purchasing power of women

There's no question that women buy. Don't Think Pinkexplains what drives their buying decisions, and how businesses can capitalize on this enormous (and evergreen) market.
作者简介 Lisa Johnson (Eugene, OR) and Andrea Learned (Burlington, VT) are cofounders of ReachWomen, a firm specializing in and advising clients on the behavior of women as consumers.

专业书评 From Publishers Weekly

With women heading some 40% of households in America, making 85% of consumer buying decisions and running 40% of all companies in the U.S., according to the authors, it makes sense that marketers would want to appeal to this huge audience. However, Johnson and Learned, cofounders of the consulting firm ReachWomen, believe that too many companies either don't cater to women or repeatedly send misleading messages. Marketers need to understand the customers, get their feedback and focus on the context of the product. For example, some products should be given out in a doctor's office while other items should be sent to the consumer. It's also important to understand the difference between generations. A younger woman might focus more on finances while an older woman may feel as if she can pamper herself, after working and raising a family for many years. To support their thesis, the authors provide examples of positive innovations. For instance, hotels have attracted women business travelers by improving hallway lighting and installing security cameras; greeting card companies have used different images and ethnic language to attract minority purchasers. The authors present their information clearly and concisely and the advice on using the Internet both to sell products and conduct surveys is particularly helpful. This is a solid guide for marketers at any corporation who want to reach the women's market.

Publishers Weekly: ""This is a solid guide for marketers at any corporation who want to reach the women's market.""

Harvard Business School Working Knowledge (www.hbswk.hbs.edu): ""The book is rich in practical suggestions and interesting stories, with an easy-to-read style.""

Donna Paz, Paz & Associates, The Reader’s Edge: ""Every once in awhile, I discover a business book that is filled with Aha! moments and new learning. Such was the case when I read Don’t Think Pink, recently released by AMACOM. Since women customers are so important to the bookstore business, I think you too will love learning about the many layers within this valuable niche marketÖand how things have changed over the last several decades. I think the book may be ever more important than Paco Underhill’s observations on retail, especially when it comes to bookstore marketing. Do remember to mention this book to other business owners in your area who cater to women customers. it can also serve as the basis for a presentation at a local Chamber of Commerce meeting or gathering of local women business owners. At the very least, all travel agents, realtors, salon owners and day care administrators will be glad they chose a business book this summer.""

Alf Nucifora, syndicated columnist: ""An intelligent roadmap to what really makes women buy."""
