This book, filled with simple frameworks and engaging stories, will help everyone in your company understand what really works for driving sustainable brand growth and business success.</p><p>In 2011, Greg Creed had just been elevated from President to CEO of Taco Bell, a brand in deep distress at the time. It was on his shoulders to turn things around quickly along with co-author and CMO, Ken Muench. Together, they developed the R.E.D (Relevance, Ease, Distinctiveness) method.</p><p>It's simple methodology does not require complicated terms and a PhD to understand, it's actually quite simple--marketing works in three very different ways: </p><ul><li><strong>Relevance</strong>--Is it relevant to the marketplace?</li><li><strong>Ease</strong>--Is it easy to access and use?</li><li><strong>Distinction</strong>--Does it stand out from competition?</li></ul><p>By combining actual examples from Yum! and other recognizable brands of every size around the world with the latest findings in marketing, neuroscience, and behavioral economics, and the author's own experience marketing three different brands across 120 countries, your brand can set and achieve a truly breakthrough marketing campaign utilizing <em>R.E.D Marketing</em></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>'As Global CEO of the KFC Brand, the challenge was how to build an iconic brand in 140 countries around the world, some of which had just opened, some of which had a history of challenged financial issues that plainly exhibited themselves in poor operational and asset investment, and many where the KFC Brand stood proud as the market leader with world class restaurants and customer service excellence. R.E.D and the brilliance of both Greg and Ken enabled a clear, concise, and understandable way for us to visualize and execute the KFC brand in every country in which we operated. Most impressive was R.E.D.'s ability to unlock the consumer issues in problem markets and then find a pathway to a winning strategy that was understood by everyone--not just the marketers! If you want to think through a global strategy that can be effectively executed by local teams that understand their customers, then this is a book to be read with urgency.' --Roger Eaton, Former Global CEO, KFC--KFC<br><br>'Filled with simple frameworks and engaging stories, RED Marketing will help everyone in marketing understand what really works for driving sustainable brand growth and business success.' --John Kenny, PhD., Head of Strategic Planning, Intouch Group--Intouch Group<br><br>'Greg and Ken are deeply respected brand architects and executive leaders.

His R.E.D. system is not a theory. It's not a bunch of charts and graphs. It's proven methodology that for years drove YUM Brand's sales to new heights of success, even during some of the most trying times of our economy. Anyone pursuing a career in this industry owes it to themselves and their future to read this book cover to cover.

Although it was a decade before the RED system of marketing was born, there were elements of the system that were apparent even then. Greg's thought leadership and marketing expertise set the foundation for the success that Taco Bell has enjoyed for the better part of the last decade and will serve the Taco Bell business for years to come. As a franchisee of Taco Bell for over 30 years, I have seen my fair share of executives; Greg is one of those rare people that leave an indelible mark on what they do.' --Lee J. Engler, CEO, Border Foods--Border Foods<br><br>'In an age of complex and mixed messages, Creed and Muench remind us that consumers want and need straightforward, clear, simple communication.

Lundgren, Founder and CEO, TL Advisors, LLC--TL Advisors, LLC<br><br>'Often I get asked what marketing book I can recommend equally to new students to the field and to long term marketers and advertisers who try to stay on the cutting edge of how to build brands and market products. From now on, I will say R.E.D. Marketing because it synthesizes the latest marketing science learnings into a pragmatic framework that every marketer can apply. A true must-read for any marketer who wants to stay relevant.' --Michael Fassnacht, CMO, The City of Chicago--City of Chicago<br><br>'Provocative yet practical.' --Ken Langone, Co-Founder, Home Depot, Founder and Chairman, Invemed<br><br>'R.E.D.

Walter, Founder and Former Chairman and CEO, Cardinal Health, Former Director and Chairman, YUM--Yum!<br><br>'Reading R.E.D. Marketing is like taking a marketing masterclass for anyone wanting to build a brand, sell a product, or grow a business in today's hyper competitive marketplace. I 'borrowed' R.E.D. principles when building Bad Martha Brewery into a craft beer powerhouse in New England, and they work! A must read.' --Jonathan Blum, Founder and CEO, Bad Martha Beer, Retired Chief Public Affairs and Global Nutrition Officer, YUM Brands--yum!<br><br>'RED distills all I learned from a decade working alongside Greg and Ken into a quick read that will accelerate any marketer's career.' --Jeff Jenkins, EVP of Global Marketing, Carters Inc--Carters Inc<br><br>'This is a must-read for all brand builders and business leaders! R.E.D. is a simple and powerful blueprint that weaves in captivating stories and lessons. Greg is a proven leader with world class results and relevant advice that you can apply immediately.' --Diane Dietz, CEO and President, Rodan and Fields--Rodan and Fields<br><br>Greg and Ken's take on marketing is a pleasing, frank, and plainspoken wake up call for marketers to slow down long enough to ensure the lifelines for brand building are moored in relevance, ease, and distinctiveness with their R.E.D. framework. Relevance beats uniqueness over the long-haul, ease is the new fast, and distinctiveness beats even excellence. Greg Creed was an early pioneer and marketing legislator of today's immutable law that brands are built on the premise of experience over promise-making and, unfortunately, promise-breaking. I still have gauzy memories of Greg across the battlefield when I was on a similar journey at Burger King.' --Russ Klein, CEO, American Marketing Association--American Marketing Association<br>
