A bestselling author and advertising veteran shares a life’s lessons from the ad trade. Dave Marinaccio, cofounder and the creative director of LMO Advertising, is a veteran of the industry who, as a young man starting out, studied stand-up at Second City in Chicago. He later wrote an international bestseller, All I Really Need to Know I Learned from Watching Star Trek. His equally entertaining new book takes us inside the world of advertising, offering stories and observations from his three decades at some of America's best-known agencies, working with clients from Pizza Hut to the Holocaust Museum. In short, punchy chapters, Dave pulls back the curtain and shares his insights on how marketing decisions are made and other lessons. His topics range from logos, the big idea, and selling perfume to how we undervalue our gifts, to do-overs, celebrities, and "meetingsmanship." And more than a few lessons turn out to be apt not just for business but for our stressed-out lives. Admen, Mad Men, and the Real World of Advertising is written to be easily digestible by interns, CEOS, or anyone who has ever watched a television commercial or clicked on a banner ad. Irreverent, packed with useful information, and unflinchingly honest, it is a serious business book by a seriously funny man and a must for anyone who lives, works, or plays in today's commercial culture.

Excerpt from The Men Who Advertise: An Account of Successful Advertisers, Together With Hints on the Method of Advertising W'e also have endeavored to set forth in our pages the superiority of ad vertising in newspapers over that of other kinds. The handbills are thrown away and the posters not read, and it is safe to say that an advertisement cost ing five dollars will reach twice as many people and be read by twice as many as the same money put in a handbill. Take the New York Tribune, charging in the thirty-six hundred dollars a page, and we take this because its rates are the highest and the size of the page the largest. It circulates about two hundred thousand copies. Place this same matter in the shape of a cir calar and distribute it, and it will be found to be much less generally read, besides costing more.
