Download or read book Marketing Places written by Philip Kotler and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2002-01-15 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's headlines report cities going bankrupt, states running large deficits, and nations stuck in high debt and stagnation. Philip Kotler, Donald Haider, and Irving Rein argue that thousands of "places" -- cities, states, and nations -- are in crisis, and can no longer rely on national industrial policies, such as federal matching funds, as a promise of jobs and protection. When trouble strikes, places resort to various palliatives such as chasing grants from state or federal sources, bidding for smokestack industries, or building convention centers and exotic attractions. The authors show instead that places must, like any market-driven business, become attractive "products" by improving their industrial base and communicating their special qualities more effectively to their target markets. From studies of cities and nations throughout the world, Kotler, Haider, and Rein offer a systematic analysis of why so many places have fallen on hard times, and make recommendations on what can be done to revitalize a place's economy. They show how "place wars" -- battles for Japanese factories, government projects, Olympic Games, baseball team franchises, convention business, and other economic prizes -- are often misguided and end in wasted money and effort. The hidden key to vigorous economic development, the authors argue, is strategic marketing of places by rebuilding infrastructure, creating a skilled labor force, stimulating local business entrepreneurship and expansion, developing strong public/private partnerships, identifying and attracting "place compatible" companies and industries, creating distinctive local attractions, building a service-friendly culture, and promoting these advantages effectively. Strategic marketing of places requires a deep understanding of how "place buyers" -- tourists, new residents, factories, corporate headquarters, investors -- make their place decisions. With this understanding, "place sellers" -- economic development agencies, tourist promotion agencies, mayor's offices -- can take the necessary steps to compete aggressively for place buyers. This straightforward guide for effectively marketing places will be the framework for economic development in the 1990s and beyond.

Book excerpt: Enjoy this second chance, rich/poor, emotional, small-town treasure hunt romance by author Frances Dall'Alba set in both Australia and a small village in southern Italy. Hidden treasures ? broken spirits ? tangled love. Sassy and stubborn, Liz Emerson has always done it tough. Raised by her grandparents, there?s only her nan left. With her finances tight and her career on hold, when a bundle of cash comes her way, she?s already allocated it to sensible and practical costs, not for what it?s intended. Fiercely proud and loyal, billionaire Connor Levorico has always followed the principals of his hardworking grandfather. On the night of his death, his grandfather reveals one final secret and Connor makes a promise. Connor and Liz find themselves on the same reckless path, looking for buried heirloom jewels, in a tiny out of the way village in southern Italy. Except, neither knows the other is on the same mission, and the unexpected heat building up between them will only cause trouble if they don?t tell each other the truth. This modern-day treasure hunt turns dangerous when a third person joins the search. It comes to a futile end when the truth blows up, leaving Liz badly hurt and Connor forced to return home to a family emergency. But not even Connor?s wealth can prepare him for the sudden change that will impact his life forever. As he claws his way out of the darkness, the lure of the jewels won?t go away. Can Connor convince Liz to return for one more shot at finding the jewels? He?s prepared to risk everything, even his heart, bargaining a no-strings-attached arrangement to ensure she agrees. Liz fights back, not sure who to trust. Her heart was left in tatters last time. Why would she risk it again? The Shooting Star is the first novel in the Sway of The Stars Series, although all books in the Sway of The Stars Series can be read as standalones. For fans of Melanie Harlow, Kristen Proby and Georgia Le Carre, books by Frances Dall'Alba are filled with romance, emotion, passion, love, second chances, friends to lovers, mystery and intrigue, might contain some ugly-cry, will contain some steamy scenes, and will always end happily. They are Australian themed and set in amazing Australian locations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These vintage and contemporary images of Baltimore movie palaces explore the changing face of Charm City with stories and commentary by filmmakers. Since the dawn of popular cinema, Baltimore has been home to hundreds of movie theaters, many of which became legendary monuments to popular culture. But by 2016, the number of cinemas had dwindled to only three. Many theaters have been boarded up, burned out, or repurposed. In this volume, Baltimore Sun photojournalist Amy Davis pairs vintage black-and-white images of downtown movie palaces and modest neighborhood theaters with her own contemporary color photos. Flickering Treasures delves into Baltimore’s cultural and cinematic history, from its troubling legacy of racial segregation to the technological changes that have shaped both American cities and the movie exhibition business. Images of Electric Park, the Century, the Hippodrome, and scores of other beloved venues are punctuated by stories and interviews, as well as commentary from celebrated Baltimore filmmakers Barry Levinson and John Waters. A map and timeline reveal the one-time presence of movie houses in every corner of the city, and fact boxes include the years of operation, address, architect, and seating capacity for each of the 72 theaters profiled, along with a brief description of each theater’s distinct character.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Billy Hartwell and Anne Larsen are again the protagonists in this tale of Mexican drug cartels against a backdrop of the ancient cultures and treasures that still exist in many countries throughout Mesoamerica, including Mexico. The explosion of meth and fentanyl into America is an outrageous evil that is growing every day because those drugs are easy to make, and do not require any soil and water to grow, like marijuana, heroin, or cocaine. Plus, the cartels can buy inexpensive pill making machines which produce thousands of pills per hour that look like harmless prescription medicines, yet when shipped to the USA the profits to the cartels are worth billions. The death toll in America is skyrocketing because there are no controls on the contents of the pills and innocent young people are dying at an unheard-of rate. Billy is looking for treasure in the ancient ruins and Anne, a CIA agent, is working to stop the drug trafficking. Their work puts them in constant danger with their combined commitment to find treasure and save lives. The story also includes two incredibly talented Beagle dogs that help Billy maintain his reputation as the most famous treasure hunter in the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuba, the Island I Treasure recounts the author’s search for truth in a lifetime of broken promises as he travels to his homeland, Cuba. After forty four years since he left, Cuba still is a land of beauty yet fraught with contradictions. He is surprised by what the country has to offer him soon after he arrives. Most Cubans are vigilant of ‘Big Brother’ watching but they have remarkably kept their festive attitude toward life. How do you shake the heartbreaking poverty? Some have adapted while others can’t get beyond the coercion of the current government. The author keeps asking, “Is ignorance bliss?” The author’s journey of healing begins when he recalls Cuba through his childhood memories. He discovered that change is inevitable and it must come from inside the country. What external events will help strengthen this change? The U.S. must lift its embargo to help alleviate the hunger and lack of medicine that affects many Cubans. In return, will the Cuban government have enough courage to free its political prisoners and allow freedom of speech to flourish and go unpunished? Cuba can heal its broken heart. Cuba, the Island I Treasure helps show us the way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We tend to associate small town economic development with the decline of the rural United States--empty houses, shuttered shops and rusting factories. A common diagnosis of sluggish small town recovery is their lack of lifestyle amenities that attract new residents and businesses. Yet many small towns have shown progress and potential in recent years. This collection of recent articles by experts presents stories of small-town America's struggle and describes innovations and practices behind successful revivals.

Download or read book Cinema Treasures written by Ross Melnick and published by Motorbooks. This book was released on 2004 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 100 years after the first movie delighted audiences, movie theaters remain the last great community centers and one of the few amusements any family can afford. While countless books have been devoted to films and their stars, none have attempted a truly definitive history of those magical venues that have transported moviegoers since the beginning of the last century. In this stunningly illustrated book, film industry insiders Ross Melnick and Andreas Fuchs take readers from the nickelodeon to the megaplex and show how changes in moviemaking and political, social, and technological forces (e.g., war, depression, the baby boom, the VCR) have influenced the way we see movies.Archival photographs from archives like the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and movie theater ephemera (postcards, period ads, matchbooks, and even a "barf bag") sourced from private collections complement Melnick's informative and engaging history. Also included throughout the book are Fuchs' profiles detailing 25 classic movie theaters that have been restored and renovated and which continue to operate today. Each of these two-page spreads is illustrated with marvelous modern photographs, many taken by top architectural photographers. The result is a fabulous look at one way in which Americans continue to come together as a nation. A timeline throughout places the developments described in a broader historical context."We've had a number of beautiful books about the great movie palaces, and even some individual volumes that pay tribute to surviving theaters around the country. This is the first book I can recall that focuses on the survivors, from coast to coast, and puts them into historical context. Sumptuously produced in an oversized format, on heavy coated paper stock, this beautiful book offers a lively history of movie theaters in America , an impressive array of photos and memorabilia, and a heartening survey of the landmarks in our midst, from the majestic Fox Tucson Theatre in Tucson, Arizona to the charming jewel-box that is the Avon in Stamford, Connecticut. I don't know why, but I never tire of gazing at black & white photos of marquees from the past; they evoke the era of moviemaking (and moviegoing) I care about the most, and this book is packed with them. Cinema Treasures is indeed a treasure, and a perfect gift item for the holiday season. - Leonard Maltin"Humble or grandiose, stand-alone or strung together, movie theaters are places where dreams are born. Once upon a time, they were treated with the respect they deserve. In their heyday, historian Ross Melnick and exhibitor Andreas Fuchs write in Cinema Treasures, openings of new motion-picture pleasure palaces that would have dazzled Kubla Khan 'received enormous attention in newspapers around the country. On top of the publicity they generated, their debuts were treated like the gala openings of new operas or exhibits, with critics weighing in on everything from the interior and exterior design to the orchestra.' Handsomely produced and extensively illustrated, Cinema Treasures is detailed without being dull and thoroughly at home with this often neglected subject matter. Its title would have you believe it is a celebration of the golden age of movie theaters. But this book is something completely different: an examination of the history of movie exhibition, which the authors accurately call 'a vastly under-researched topic.'" - Los Angeles Times
