Intro
Why 42?

The concept of 42 rules is that almost anything in life can be summarized into 42 distinct ideas that capture the essence of the topic.

I am often asked Why 42? In the science-fiction novel turned cult film, The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, a computer is built to answer the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything. The answer is simply 42. As I approached writing this book, 27 rules seemed too low, but 51 were way too many. Douglas Adams, the author of The Hitchhikers Guide, was on to something when he chose 42. It felt right to me as well.

The 42 Rules of Marketing is a compilation of ideas, theories, and practical approaches I have been collecting over the years. The idea was to create a series of helpful reminders; things that marketers know we should do, but dont always have the time or patience to do.

As you read through the rules, I ask that you dont take them literally. They are interesting stories, anecdotes and observations. Keep the book on your desk as it is intended as an entertaining antidote to long, boring conference calls. Dont read the rules in order, but flip through them until something strikes you. If it sparks an idea, then Ive done what I set out to do.

Feel free to pass the rules along to anyone you think might benefit from a friendly little reminder. Use them to start a discussion about what other people think the rules should be. After all, these are my rules. What are yours?

Rule 1
Rules are Meant to be Broken
Rule 2
Marketing Must Result in Sales

Marketing is the way you create and distribute messages to get peoples attention so you can convince them to buy more of your stuff

Marketing is creative, exciting and dare-I-say fun. Brainstorming ideas late into the night while munching on M&Ms and stale Doritoswhat could be better? Throwing ideas around, watching them get better and bigger by the minutehow cool is that? Seeing your ad in print for the first time, or watching the results of an email campaign right after you hit the send buttonit is pure adrenaline.

There was a time when brilliant creative was appreciated for being brilliant creative. Now, most CEOs actually want their marketing teams to help sell products. They are holding CMOs accountable for specific performance metricslike all the other C-level folks at the table.

Marketing folks are, for the most part, not too fond of process, reporting or anything that might limit creativity. At least thats how most non-marketers view marketing people. Some marketers would certainly classify themselves as right-brain types, not inclined to documentation, data or discipline. Not everyone fits this description, and it might be hard for some of you to hear. Marketing is one of the last disciplines to apply process, automation and technology to improve both efficiency and effectiveness.
