"Denny and Leinberger capture the profound truths and deep realities of leading and marketing in a rapidly evolving world of digital platforms." —Blake Irving, former CEO of GoDaddy

You can fake authenticity. But in this digitally saturated age, your customers will see through any misdirection.

As we are constantly on our electronic devices, we have come to distrust curated media and traditional PR. Stephen Denny and Paul Leinberger have found that people now want to make their own decisions based on raw footage, real-time updates, and unfiltered livestreams. How, then, do marketing executives and others gain consumer trust? These Fortune 500 consultants present the answer in Unfiltered Marketing.

Drawing on four years of global research, authors Denny and Leinberger have developed a comprehensive five-step process for successfully rehumanizing the digital brand experience and gaining customer loyalty. To follow it, companies must understand that consumers are (1) seeking control in an out-of-control world; and executives must rework their brand to be (2) unscripted, (3) in-process, and (4) in-context, in order to master (5) heroic credibility (brands standing by their philosophy and values). Abiding by these rules, businesses follow in the successful footsteps of brands like Patagonia, T-Mobile, adidas, GoDaddy, and others.

      Speakers and consultants Leinberger (New Industrials) and Denny (Killing Giants) analyze the way consumers receive information, including raw data which can be in the form of videos, the document dump, real time updates, and the livestream. Consumers can then form their own opinions rather than viewing the data "filtered" through news commentators and other interpreters that they may not trust. The authors examine how companies can gain customer loyalty by taking steps to "rehumanize" the digital marketing experience. Strategies discussed include reworking the brand to be unscripted and achieving "heroic credibility" by standing by their values. CEOs are advised to go off script to project honesty, trustworthiness, authenticity, transparency, and vulnerability. The authors use numerous case studies to illustrate how companies have worked toward the goal of obtaining consumer trust, including FoodNetwork, Alibaba, and Apple Computer. Projected scenarios created by the authors are a bonus and offer intriguing visions of the future. Bibliographic notes are included for further reading. VERDICT An innovative, highly compelling study of how technological change, how the public receives information, and how CEOs and managers can effectively plan to achieve customer loyalty and trust.--Lucy Heckman, St. John's Univ. Lib., Queens Village, NY
