The Organic Growth Playbook by Bernard Jaworski
Conventional marketing strategies that focus on product differentiation and positioning often fail to deliver faster growth. In this re-published book, Jaworski and Lurie offer a novel approach to this problem of growth.
'Organic profitable growth is critical for the long-term health of a business and requires at least three ingredients: high-potential markets, valuable/well-marketed offerings, and strong commercial leadership teamsThe Organic Growth Playbook by Bernie Jaworski and Bob Lurie doesn’t help you find a growth market or create a valuable product and service offering, and it doesn’t try to teach you how to lead. Rather, it focuses on the marketing process and how to best map those extremely high value "moments of truth" in the purchasing process with a focus on very distinct high-yield market segments and behaviors. Bernie and Bob’s proposition flips marketing 101 on its head, and can lead to high return by not only catalyzing increased revenue growth, but also by reducing marketing spend.' -- Mick Farrell, CEO, ResMed
'The Playbook shows (1) the counterintuitive power of focusing on a very small set of customer behaviors rather than all stages of the buying process and (2) the effectiveness of focusing on shaping customer behavior versus the conventional wisdom of simply better product positioning.' -- Anil Menon, Former President Cisco Smart + Connected Communities
'In a macroeconomic world where you need to create your own growth, The Organic Growth Playbook is a practical, detailed guide for faster organic growth, both in the core and in new markets. It is now the "Eastman way" to deliver growth.' -- Mark Costa, Chairman and CEO, Eastman Chemicals
'In The Organic Growth Playbook, Jaworski & Lurie drive marketing back to the place it should never have left: changing actual customer behavior. By focusing on deeply understanding the customer journey in order to deliver compelling behavior change value propositions, the Playbook provides an actionable blueprint for profitably and sustainably growing your business.' -- Roger Martin, Co-Author, Playing to Win Strategy Advisor, Author, and Former Rotman School Dean
'Nearly all of the biggest and even best positioned consumer brands around the world are struggling for organic growth. Its clear the tried and true is no longer sufficient. By digging deeper and wider into the context for purchase behavior, Lurie and Jaworski demonstrate an insightful and time tested approach for finding the levers of growth. It works.' -- Tom Long, Former CEO, MillerCoors
'Growing one's company is part of every manager's job, from the CEO on down. Most managers know this. They just don't know how to do it. Jaworski and Lurie provide a tried-and-true approach to doubling or tripling a firm's organic growth rate. Any manager committed to growing their company should read it.' -- Mark Fuller, Former Chairman and CEO of Monitor Group
'A brilliant, lucid example of how astute observation of practitioners by creative minds can provide workable, powerful, general principles. Absolutely essential reading for any manager concerned with achieving sustained growth in any industry.' -- Gerald Zaltman, Harvard Business School and Olson Zaltman, Author of How Customers Think and Unlocked: Keys to Improve Your Thinking
'Bob Lurie and Bernie Jaworski know if a company isn’t growing it’s probably dying, like most of us. However, in today’s world of rapidly changing business models and elusive competitive advantage they offer a fresh map of thinking on how to grow in an unpredictable environment. Read this book.' -- Larry Weber, Founder,Weber Shandwick
