Curator: Spice Up Your Boring Museum with Kotler!

At the intersection of marketing strategy and museum administration, this is an absolutely necessary reading for any serious museum decision-maker. Neil and Philip Kotler are world-class marketing experts, who have been cultivating a parallel interest in non-for-profit organizations since the 1970s. This book is very useful, elaborating on each stage of the development of marketing strategy, with excellent examples and case-studies which provide a practical perspective on marketing tools applied on museums. The book is, at least, very insightful. Highly recommended.
