Written by a senior marketing and media executive, Branded for Life makes sense of a world where Wal-Mart is richer than 85% of the nations on earth; where well-informed, obese consumers continue to drink Coke and eat at McDonalds; where rabbis discuss market segmentation strategies to counteract declining market share; and where naming rights to newborns may be sold to the highest corporate bidder. Branded for Life explains who we really are as consumers, and how large corporations and political leaders exploit our trust. The book also provides sane, actionable advice for people who want to make a difference.

Creative people are different from everybody else. Their working styles are defined by sprints, not marathons; boundless curiosity; and a desire and capacity to learn, discuss, and delve deeply into new domains and ideas. These are characteristics that any business or organization cherishes, and yet there’s often a disconnect between the people with these personality traits and the companies that desperately need their input. The Creative Professional helps artists, writers, designers, and musicians fit into the business world, on its terms and on their own. It will help them make (and keep) more money and to stay out of trouble. It also addresses the deeper issues that creative people ought to talk about more often: what happens when the muse just isn’t there, and what motivates everyone to do good work.
