My Life in Advertising and Scientific Advertising by Claude C. Hopkins

4.0

Claude C. Hopkins, one of the greatest advertising pioneers, believed that advertising existed to sell something. He was among the first to see advertising as something that can be measured. What was unique about him was how he lived with the users of his products to understand these people even better. He knew them very well — their needs, desires, behaviors, and wants. What he learned in advertising and his experiences are all documented in the book: My Life in Advertising and Scientific Advertising.

I enjoyed reading it! Although I was not a finance or marketing graduate, I was still able to grasp what he was talking about. His simplistic writing is very much worth commending. The only downside was that there were times when I was tempted to skip some chapters. If you want to read the book and you feel like a certain chapter is not that essential for you, feel free to skip it.
