Excerpt from First Principles of Advertising This textbook is not intended to be a volume for the practicing advertising man or woman, but is virtually the "first steps" in the profession. It is based on the actual experience of the author, and has been planned and prepared along the lines he would follow were the student a beginner in his own department. It is assumed that the student has no knowledge of advertising beyond the fact that he has seen advertisements in their various forms. It is further assumed that the chief desire of the student is to write advertisements; and as it is necessary to have some knowledge of the practice of advertising, the various chapters are given to furnish that background and foundation. Sincere appreciation is expressed and due acknowledgements made of the obligation of the author to his many friends in the profession who have made valuable suggestions. It is planned that a second volume shall go into the technical details of an advertising department, advertising agency work, and the other matters which become essential after the student has qualified in his preliminary work.

Mrketing reversed prior business logic 50 years ago and said «the customer is king», and the companies began to recognize that it was not just the product that was the most important aspect of their business. Companies recognized that consumers had a myriad of choices of product offerings and marketing was responsible to ensure that the company?s products had the benefits and attributes that customers wanted and were willing to pay for. Today, considering the technology development, which influences every function of the company, the focus of the successful marketing oriented companies has changed from «the customer is king» to «the customer is a dictator!!!». However, and despite the new trends in marketing, like any social science, marketing has basic principles, and these principles need to be considered when making any type of marketing decisions. So, the major step of a student of marketing, whether it is a young university student or an experienced business executive, is to understand the principles of marketing, and reading the present book will be the first step in accomplishing this task. This book describes these basic principles of marketing, and while the authors recognize that each decision may be slightly different from any previous decision, the rules or principles remain the same. The present book presents these basic marketing principles and tries to capture the essence of practical and modern marketing today. Therefore, the purpose of Principles of Marketing is to introduce readers to the fascinating world of marketing today, in an easy, enjoyable and practical way, offering an attractive text from which to learn about and teach marketing.
