Marketing Communications cover

Uniting industry experience with academic expertise, the authors combine marketing communications and advertising with the branding perspective, providing students with a practical planning system and a seven-step approach to creating a comprehensive marketing plan.

 

The new SAGE Marketing Communications textbook is a contemporary evolution of the well-known Rossiter and Percy Advertising and Promotion Management textbook, which at its peak was adopted by six of the top 10 U.S. business schools – Stanford, Wharton, Columbia, Berkeley, UCLA, and Northwestern – as well as by the London Business School, Oxford’s Said Business School, and by most of the top business schools in Europe such as Erasmus University Rotterdam, INSEAD, and the Stockholm School of Economics. 

 

Key features include:

  • An author analytical approach with checklist frameworks in chapters, providing students with a systematic guide to doing marketing communications.
  • A managerial perspective, helping students to become a marketing manager and study as though they are in the role.
  • Coverage of key new marketing communications topics such as branding and social media. 

In each of the end-of-chapter questions there are mini-cases that involve real brands, and the numerous examples throughout the text refer to globally known brands such as Gillette, Mercedes, Revlon, and Toyota.

 

The book is supported by online instructor resources, including PowerPoint slides and teaching outlines for each chapter, multiple choice exam questions and answers, team project templates, true and false quizzes and answers, and an instructor manual.

Suitable for Marketing Communications and Advertising & Promotion modules at UG and PG levels.

I was already a big fan of the seminal Rossiter & Percy textbook. I read the first edition as a student and became fascinated by advertising. Later, I used the second edition in my classes. Unsurprisingly, the new Rossiter, Percy, & Bergkvist book is an excellent textbook: clearly structured, based on a sound theoretical approach, and highly relevant for marketing practice. This symbioses of theory and practice provides students with a perfect knowledge base for their later job in marketing management.
-- Professor Dr. Tobias Langner
Rossiter, Percy, and Bergkvist’s Marketing Communications is a delightful guide full of essential concepts and theories for our students who are keen to learn modern "marcoms". The authors take readers a delightful journey into a magical world of branding and communication.

I grew up with this book. And as the authors continue to refine and update it, Marketing Communications represents one of the truly great insights into advertising, marketing and consumers.
-- Professor Mark Ritson

This book, influenced by seasoned ad industry authorities, contains all you need to know about creating and managing a communication effort from brand positioning to  and campaign objectives to campaign management.  All students of communication in a tough environment should have this book on their shelf.    

-- David Aaker

This book represents a successful, meaningful synthesis of the thoughts and practical experiences of the authors. Readers will find strategy-based insights for marketing communications together with implementable tactics. This book could function as a stand-alone text for undergraduate and graduate students and as a resource for practitioners who desire additional perspectives on how to manage their marketing communication efforts.
