  <first-review>If you would like to speed up six years of college into six hours of reading and study - buy this book.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;I've been creating world known brands for Fortune 100 companies for over ten years like Heinz, Hershey, BJ's, Sams Club, COSTCO and Mc Cormick - and this read sharpened my skills to a razor slicing edge.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;I can't say enough about having every manufacturer or college student to have a copy of this amazing tome on their, "required reading list."  Some of the most inane things million dollar and start-up clients try to do are revealed in the Ries writings.  
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Creative groups and major marketing agencies with 20 people around the table roll what they think are amazing and astounding ideas.  A good example of this is Miller Clear Beer with a 50 million dollar advertising budget.  It was pulled in six months and the brand suffered.  The product was removed from the shelves.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;At our company, King Marketing, this book is required reading for all to memorize!  I can also say that a lot of my colleagues at Momentum Worldwide, the Interpublic Group, Marketing Drive and Proctor &amp; Gamble love this book.</first-review>
