It is T-6 until I make the jump from Finance to Marketing and I couldn’t be more excited….just have to close the Fiscal Year and I am gone to the “other side” of pictures and powerpoint  rather than spreadsheets and excel (although I am a confessed excel geek – but get mostly excited about conditional formatting…yes Marketing = good choice).

I asked a trusted colleague, friend and in this case more importantly marketing guru, Ryan from M-Cause, for some recommendations of reading to switch my mindset…to start thinking in Marketing metrics rather than what you can put in OIX. I bought them all up on amazon and got very excited when the box arrived yesterday (me=book fiend).

I wanted to share with you this list and will share more when I read them :-) Enjoy!

I have found Seth Godin’s blog recently, and I must say – he is an excellent read! I haven’t read any of the books which you have mentioned, but I am definitely adding them to my reading list!
