This week, we’re bringing you our final newsletter of 2013. We’ll be taking a short break over the holidays but promise to return with even more great content in January!
This has been a wonderful year, and we’re really looking forward to 2014. Not only will an enhanced paperback edition of
Predictable Success be coming out in March, an audio version will be released then as well. Of course
Do Lead will also be making its debut, it’s due out in May.
Before we say goodbye to 2013, we have some great resources to help you close the year out right. If you’ve ever marveled at the marketing brilliance behind Nike or Southwest Airlines, then be sure to listen to Les’ new
interview with Steve McKee as they examine power branding.
In our latest newsletter question, we ask what’s your biggest business concern/planning challenge heading into the new year?
Tell us, and you could receive a solution from Les himself!
Speaking of, if you’d like to keep up with the latest tips and resources from Predictable Success between newsletters, be sure to check us out on

Thanks so much for your support this year, and we wish you the happiest of holidays!

Put Power Branding to Work for You
If you could take 75 of the most powerful branding success stories and distill them down to their essentials, what could you learn from them?
That’s what BusinessWeek columnist and award-winning author Steve McKee examines in his new book, Power Branding.
He recently spoke with Les about the lessons he uncovered and how they can be applied anywhere – from a new company that’s just starting out to a large corporation whose brand is already well-established.
In this interview, Les and Steve explore the importance of not only strategy, but execution as well. They also take a closer look at the seemingly irrational factors that impact our buying decisions and how they are being used to create game-changing campaigns.
Lastly, they examine why even the best of brands will not survive if a company’s internal culture becomes too dysfunctional and how to keep this from happening.
