Why read it?

1 author picked Brand Hijack as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This was the book that inspired me to switch careers. Wipperfürth details the rise of brands like Doc Martens, Napster and Pabst Blue Ribbon, all of which were WOM success stories.

From Jason's list on word of mouth marketing.
