"This book is for everyone who wants to understand the psyche of
how people are making buying decisions in a rapidly changing world.

company wants to keep up (and thrive) in a world transformed by the
near-infinite number of online options, read this book."

"In Influencing Shopper Decisions, Rebecca and Devora have managed
to produce a book that is compelling, evidence-based and tells a
great story. It's packed with examples, first-hand experiences and
fresh thinking about how the internet has so radically changed our
shopping attitudes and behaviour ... and all our mindsets, both as
consumers and branding professionals. Their narrative includes a
large dose of the real world, and why it is so important to
recognise the limitations that blinkered 'brand narcissism' causes
for brand owners. Real people don't care about your marketing
plans. They only care about how you can help their lives. This book
makes a great contribution to the sum of brand knowledge."
*Rita Clifton CBE, Global Brand Expert; Former Chair of Interbrand;
Portfolio Chair, Board Director and Former Vice Chair at Saatchi &
Saatchi*

'The Creative Mindset'*

future are laid out beautifully. You will love this book."
*Chester Elton, bestselling coauthor of 'The Carrot Principle',

experts do."
*Peter Shankman, Bestselling Author of 'Faster Than Normal:
