Brand: Released September 2017
Available for purchase on Amazon
In this latest book co-authored with my son, Todd Newman, we put forward an innovative model of branding that integrates the best practices across six different brand entities: Products, services, people, organizations, nations and complex ideas. The book relies on extensive examples of successful branding strategies, including the recent Trump election victory and the challenge to climate change advocates.
I recently held an interview with DePaul University’s College of Business, where I discussed Brand’s primary framework and how it integrates with political marketing. The full interview is available

The Marketing Revolution in Politics
I released
The Marketing Revolution in Politics in 2016. The book frames the infrastructure changes in the political system in the United States that made it possible for Donald Trump to succeed through the use of the same technological advances that President Obama relied on in his two winning presidential campaigns.
Here are some reviews of my work.

Individual Reviews
“If you are in business, you should read this book. If you are in political campaign management, you should read this book. If you are in nonprofit management you should read this book. It illuminates new marketing strategies that can be used in all three arenas.” – (Rick Ridder, political consultant and professor, University of Denver)
“For decades political campaigns have tried to emulate the marketing principles and techniques of forward-thinking commercial enterprises. And for decades, campaigns have always been slow to catch up and implement these ideas. But that all changed with the Obama campaigns of 2008 and 2012. In an incisive, illuminating study, Bruce Newman, the dean of political marketing academicians, writes about the paradigm shift in marketing, with the Obama Model offering both commercial and political enterprises valuable lessons on waging a successful campaign. A timely read; highly recommended.” -Dennis W. Johnson, professor emeritus, George Washington University and author of ‘Political Consultants and American Elections’
“Many have addressed ‘what happened’ when analyzing American Presidential campaigns but Newman takes it further to explain the ‘why’ and ‘how.’ He reveals the innovations and strategies that have propelled political marketing to a sophisticated level that has Madison Avenues struggling to emulate.” – Tom Edmonds, past president of the American Association of Political Consultants and the International Association of Political Consultants
“If you are in business, you should read this book. If you are in political campaign management, you should read this book. If you are in nonprofit management you should read this book. It illuminates new marketing strategies that can be used in all three arenas.” –Rick Ridder, political consultant and professor, University of Denver
