MarkeFour principles from the book that changed David Ogilvy’s life | MarketingExperiments | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Hopkins summarized his theory of advertising in a short, easy-to-digest, book called Scientific Advertising. This was Ogilvy’s go-to book. I remember the first time I read through it.
