P G 99 Principles Practices of Procter

by Charles Decker

A collection of invaluable business tips and methods from one of the most admired companies in the world. Procter & Gamble is one of the most successful and admired companies today. A $30 billion global empire, it is one of the bluest of the blue chip companies on Wall Street, and boasts the biggest advertising budget ($3.2 billion last year) on earth. Here, for the first time, are the 99 principles that have made Procter & Gamble the dominant marketing powerhouse, a collection of business know-how which comes directly from inside the walls of P & G.

Harvard Business School teaches Procter & Gamble’s heralded brand management system, and many companies consider P & G training better than an MBA.

Comparable to The 22 Immutable Laws of Marketing and The One Minute Manager, this is business self-help par excellence, whether you need to know how to write the perfect memo, run an effective meeting or understand the importance of analytic objectivity in test marketing…
