What readers are saying

  • Winner Ajibola

    “The one thing that stuck with me from this book is that we often don’t need complex solutions to solve complex problems. Oftentimes, the most impactful solution is the easiest one. It may not seem like much, but recently, it’s been what I’ve been doing, and when I tell you, life has been so much easier. It’s definitely something I’ll be implementing for the rest of my career.”

    Winner Ajibola, Product Marketer

  • Treasure Okure

    "Something that stood out to me among the advice I received from the book was "be self-centered" about your career growth. Too often, we do things and stay in places for the wrong reasons - we don't want to offend people, we are too comfortable, etc. But one of the contributors said that, and it stuck with me"

    Treasure Okure, Content Marketer

  • Idongesit Akpan

    “I found this book at the right time. Normally, it would have been hard to get all those insights from the contributing marketers. One thing that stood out for me is how important data is and its interpretation to us as marketers. Moving forward, I’ll look at insights and analytics in a new light by relying on them to make informed decisions for a company’s growth.”

    Idongesit Akpan, Community Manager

  • Blessing Onyegbula

    “As someone who has played it safe for most of her career and become bored/complacent, this book made me sit up. Literally and figuratively. I love the section on embracing failure and having an experimental mindset. Sometimes, it’s okay to explore ideas not because they’ll be a hit but because of the lessons they’ll bring, leading to our growth. Also, the art of marrying data and creativity was explained in a practical way by the experts, which I appreciate.”

    Blessing Onyegbula, Content Marketer

  • Zainab Balogun

    “I learned that it’s okay to be a beginner. It’s something I particularly relate with cause many times I compare myself to others who have been in the field for a while & the book mentions that I can still carry the name on my head even though I’m just starting out. I also learned it’s not only my point of view that matters. That I’m fond of something doesn’t mean it’s the best thing out there, it helps to seek opinions and do some research.

    Zainab Balogun, Technical Writer

  • Titilola Shittu

    “I've always admired marketers who deliver excellent results while knowing little about how they do it. The insights shared in the book were practical, and now I better understand how some of these marketers execute. Each chapter taught me what to expect in marketing and how to excel as a marketer. Marketing requires much effort, and I'm glad I found this book.”
