TheBlackCatandOtherStories-PenguinReaders

Early American novelists tended to be cautious. Many of them aimed to please Puritans and publishers alike by putting morals before plot. One such writer was Charles Brockden Brown (1771–1810), but the books he published at the turn of the century were different from his others in one respect – he included an element of horror in them. A little later, Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804–1864) wrote novels and collections of short stories concerning themselves with evil and the darker side of the human soul.

国富论亚当斯密斯

The Wealth of Nations国富论Adam SmithWhy Read It?Many books are claimed to be classics or seminal works: The Wealth of Nations is indisputably both. It is a broad-ranging exploration of commercial and economic first principles. In it Adam Smith laid the philosophical foundations for modern capitalism and the modern market economy. There are few economists over the last 200 years—and fewer politicians of a free-market persuasion—who have not been influenced by it. Smith has helped shape the economic policies of British prime ministers and chancellors of the exchequer from the days of Lord North (1770–82) to those of Margaret Thatcher—and even Tony Blair.许多书籍都声称自己是名著或开创性的作品:国富论无疑两者皆是。
这是一个商业广泛的探索和经济的第一原则。
在本书中亚当斯密奠定了现代资本主义和现代市场经济的哲学基础。
很少有经济学家在过去的200年——更不用说自由市场的政治家没有受到它的影响。
斯密帮助英国首相和部长形成经济政策,自诺斯勋爵(1770年至1782年)开始到撒切尔,甚至是布莱尔时期。

Benefits
• Twenty thousand contributors • Sales increased • Authors interact with readers • Developed for teens, by teens • Socially relevant content
“Our agency has long been known for direct marketing, but our strategic focus is shifting towards interactive marketing... [which is] right in line with the solution we’ve built on MOSS.”
— Anna Rafferty, Online Marketing Manager, Penguin U.K.
Business Situation
When Penguin commissioned a study on the reading habits of teens, it became apparent that, to appeal to teen readers, it would have to keep up with all other forms of entertainment that provided online venues.
Almost half of the teens surveyed hardly
ever visit a chain bookshop.
Seventy per cent of participants never
visit an independent bookshop.
Seventy per cent of participants think
Instead of talking to teachers, visiting schools and libraries, and advertising in print media, Penguin needed to incorporate conversation, communication, and word-ofmouth into an online environment, where teens are most comfortable. Rafferty says: “We would be very foolish to ignore what teens do and where they spend most of their time. They spend it online.”
Case Study: Penguin Books
Overview
Country: United Kingdom Industry: Media & Entertainment Customer Profile
Penguin Books has been in business since 1935, originally selling books in sweet and tobacco shops. It is now part of one of the largest publishing empires in the world.
Solution
To make reading and discussing books more relevant to the way teens share information, Penguin Books launched an interactive Web site— —developed with Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007.
Three out of four teenagers get their
information about books online.
Seventy-five per cent wish there were
more information available for them on the Internet.
Solution
In May 2007, Penguin embarked on a project to get teens discussing books online. The publishing company hired Livity, a company that specialises in youth activism and mentoring, to undertake a survey of focus groups from across the United Kingdom. The survey asked teens what they wanted from a Web site about reading and books, how it should work, what interested them, and what didn’t. The teen focus groups chose the way the Web site should look and its name, . After reviewing a series of proposals, Penguin hired Microsoft Gold Certified Partner—Content and Code—who developed the site for the Fifteen Restaurant founded by celebrity chef, Jamie Oliver. The first step the development company took was to conduct requirements assessments. This included a series of workshops, and the presentation of scenarios and concepts that corresponded to the target audience. The next step was to hire a team of editors. Penguin contacted government, educational, youth mentoring, and volunteer organisations to find teenagers who were interested in books. Candidates were asked to submit a piece of creative content and explain why they wanted to be an editor for Spinebreakers. Ten editors between the ages of 13 and 18 were

Situation
In 1935, when British publisher Allan Lane founded Penguin, he wanted to make books available to all readers, so he sold them for the same price as a packet of cigarettes. In a groundbreaking marketing move, he sold paperbacks at tobacco shops, sweet shops, and train stations. Now, Penguin is part of one of the largest publishing empires in the world—Pearson Publishing. Accessibility to all readers continues to be a priority because the publisher markets all types of books to all demographics. This is especially challenging in the most fickle market of all, teenagers. Penguin commissioned some research and surveyed teen reading habits. The results confirmed that:
Publishing Firm Builds an Interactive Web Site to Encourage Teens to Read
“We wanted to make books as culturally relevant to teenagers as other forms of entertainment such as film, music, and gaming.”
they’ll be doing even more reading online in the future. According to the survey, many teens still like reading, but don’t think they have enough information about books. Anna Rafferty, Digital Marketing Director at Penguin U.K., says: “We wanted to make books as culturally relevant to teenagers as other forms of entertainment such as film, music, and gaming. All of those forms of entertainment have numerous online Web sites, forums, and social networking sites but books don’t.” Digital media is now more relevant to teens than traditional marketing strategies.
