Product Description
The Art in Marketing: Why We Need Less Science and More Art in Marketing
Author: Anthony Tasgal
Format: Paperback
This timely book challenges the prevailing notion that marketing is, or should be, a purely scientific discipline. Drawing inspiration from Germaine Greer’s assertion that “Marketing is the art-form of the 20th century,” Tasgal argues that marketing’s relentless pursuit of scientific rigour – particularly its emulation of physics with its emphasis on universal laws, reductionism and “arithmocracy” – has stifled its inherent artistic and cultural essence.
Tasgal issues a powerful rallying cry to marketers and communicators, urging them to reclaim creativity and re- integrate it into the core of their practice. The Art in Marketing Book offers a compelling path to heal the artificial divide between science and art in marketing, demonstrating how a deliberate shift back towards an art-centred approach can unlock greater saliency, differentiation, creativity and profound insight for brands in today’s complex marketplace.
