The X and Y of Buy explores the concepts using in how to market to gender specific targets.  What techniques work best for wich gender and why!   The book Looks at hoe the male and female brain function and what draws each gender through the processing of a purchase.  The book explains how to do a great job at reaching your marketing base!

I have to admit that I had no idea that this book was intended for those in the marketing field.  It’s description at the time was a bit deceiving BUT Overall I learned a lot from this book!  It is not an easy read…Especially if you are not familiar with marketing terms (as I am not).  However i will say this. It was an enlightening read.  It showed me why i am more drawn to things that my husband, and viice versa!   I really found the chapters most interesting on how the male and female brains function an think through the purchasing process!  it has really helped me in thinking through the reasons I am purchasing something Like  “do I really need this” or “Am I just drawn to an attractive display?’

If you enjoy figuring out why you thin (or shop) the  way you do then check this book out! Just have a dictionary close By and if you are working in the Marketing field well then this is a MUST READ!  Just beware I have read the book too!
