What are the best books on marketing?
As a general introduction to marketing, I would recommend Kotler on Marketing: How to create and dominate markets
- you can obtain a review from the articles list.
As a lawyer, accountant or professional you may wish to look at a book that focuses more on professional firms in which case I would recommend the following books:
