Story
Big companies spend a fortune marketing their wares and services. Can yours? Invariably people ask advertising veteran and CBC Radio host Terry O'Reilly one question more than any other: How does a little business compete with the big guys? After decades at the helm of an award-winning advertising production company, and over a decade exploring the art and science of marketing for CBC Radio, O'Reilly delivers all the answers they - and anyone with something to sell - ever wanted to know.

Story
The Incredible Hulk was originally supposed to be grey, but a printing glitch led to the superhero’s iconic green colour. NHL hall-of-famer Serge Savard’s hockey career nearly ended prematurely, not because of an injury, but because of an oversight. And the invention of a beloved treat, the Popsicle, began with a simple mistake. In his fascinating and meticulously researched new book, Terry O’Reilly recounts how some of the biggest breakthroughs and best-loved products originated with a mistake.

Story
Customers, followers, subscribers. It's easy to just look at the numbers. How many likes? How many purchases? How many email subscribers? But as entrepreneurs, we have to remember that there are people behind all that data. People who are looking to us to be a leader, to give advice, and to care. In this dog-eat-dog world, these are the people who are looking for someone who they can trust and who they know have their best interests in mind.

Publisher's Summary
The ad men behind CBC Radio's The Age of Persuasion combine lively social history and years of industry experience to show how the art of persuasion shapes our culture.
Witty, erudite, and irrepressibly irreverent, The Age of Persuasion provides a hugely entertaining - and eye-opening - insider's look at the ever-expanding world of marketing.
The Age of Persuasion is for those who say "advertising doesn't work on me" as well as those who want to understand how this industry has become inseparable from modern culture. Using their popular CBC Radio series as a starting point, Terry O'Reilly and Mike Tennant tell the fascinating story of how modern marketing came of age - from the early players to the Mad Men of the 1960s and beyond. With insider anecdotes and examples drawn from pop culture, they also probe deeply into the day-to-day workings and ethics of a business that is rapidly evolving in the age of Facebook and YouTube.
What the critics say
"A terrific look into how advertising, marketing, and culture are all inexorably intertwined. A great read for anyone interested in branding...a must read for any student of advertising." (Rick Boyko, Director of the Virginia Commonwealth University Brandcenter, Ex-Chief Creative Officer, Ogilvy North America)
"If there's one brand that advertising has failed miserably at making people understand, it's advertising itself. This book goes a long way in correcting that, now if they could only do the same for car dealers." (Bob Kuperman, former President and Chief Executive, DDB Worldwide, New York division)
"Language is art. Advertising is art. Terry O'Reilly and Mike Tennant really deliver on that in this book. The Age of Persuasion made me stop, think, and realize that everything we do as marketers (day in and day out) can matter...and should be better. Because, in the end, advertising is not just about persuasion. It's about the stories we tell and how they connect with real people and what those real people do with those stories. The Age of Persuasion is one of those great stories." (Mitch Joel, President of Twist Image and author of Six Pixels of Separation)

Wisdom to my ears
Terry shares his marketing knowledge through great story telling and sometimes humorous scenarios. It's 10 hours and 24 minutes of interesting and eye opening realities of the age of persuasion that we live within. Is my review a review or is it an advertisement for the audiobook? You never know when you are under the influence.

Excellent
If you like any of Terry O’Reilly’s radio programs/ podcasts or other books (or you’ve never listened to them), you’ll really enjoy this. If you hate his other work, I just don’t know what to say about your taste.
