In the final installment of Big Brands, Big Trouble, Mark and Lorraine discuss the last two mistakes from Jack Trout's 2001 book: the Live by the Numbers/Wall Street Mistake and the Not Attacking Yourself Mistake. Once these last two of Jack's nine codified mistakes are tackled, the positioning duo adds four of their own: the Out-of-Touch/Ivory Tower Mistake, the Go Woke, Go Broke Mistake, the Chasing the Politics Mistake, and finally, Handing Customer Service to the Robots Mistake. Does it seem possible these brands could be in such hot water? Well, Mark and Lorraine share some positive stories of those who are following Jack's guidance and getting it right as well.

Spend 40-ish with Mark and Lorraine as they discuss all things marketing, advertising ... and positioning!
