Good read for anyone who working on Marketing for a hospital or healthcare in general. I love the fact that it's come with questions and scenario, give me a lot of things to think about. Long but worth the read.
This book provides a concise overview of marketing functions and processes with examples from the health care industry. It is highly readable and full of relevant exhibits. The one place I would have appreciated more focus is on the challenges of nonprofit health care organizations and smaller organizations that may not have a marketing or PR department.
