Pride Passion Profit - 7 Steps to Category Development
Personal Coaching and Consulting

Pride, Passion, Profit: 7 Steps to Category Development goes where no one else has dared go: to the heart of the relationship between a consumer and a buying experience. If you learn to let your customers determine how, what, and where they buy, you'll move beyond category management to category development, and it's there--and only there--that sustainable profitability awaits.

You will discover how to:

  • Measure share of heart instead of share of wallet
  • Stop guessing about what your customers want
  • Remain flexible in the face of changing consumer demands
  • Solve your customers' problems on their terms
  • Promote a solution instead of a price
