UnAwesome To-do List
tools that can spell disaster for your brand if you don't use them
carefully. The Book of Business UnAwesome recounts many
cautionary tales of companies that did it all wrong. Learn from other
businesses' mistakes, like viral marketing gone wrong, social media done
unsocially, and just hiring the wrong people, for the wrong job, at the
wrong time. The cost of being unawesome to your employees and customers

"As my shelf gets weighed down with business books I have read in the
past few years, they all start to sound very similar after awhile. The
same anecdotes, similar presentation, even similar book length. Social
Media engagement is critical to almost any business today, and that fact
has driven the business publishing community to put out more books
geared towards this message. I was pleasantly surprised by Scott
Stratten's approach to the material for a few reasons. First, you can't
get past his "awesome" presentation. The front of the book is the book
of "Business Awesome", or companies doing the right thing. The cover
is white and shows a ladybug. Flip the book over and the back is
"Business Unawesome", with a dirty looking cover and a smashed ladybug.
The organization of the book follows - good stories one way, bad
stories the other.
I like to think of myself as Awesome, so I started with that side. Most business
books suffer from word-glut - the author has a few short messages he tells with
too many words. Stratten is succinct with his narrative and well organized. Each
chapter is only a few pages long - it tells a point and then moves on. From how to
recover from a social media gaffe (The Red Cross is "gettngslizzerd") to rebranding
an old product like Old Spice, Stratten hits many points in the market quite well.
His "Thirty Tips for Speakers" covers the critical points of a shelf full of public
speaking tomes in a single succinct chapter that summarizes about all of the
wisdom you need to stand in front of a crowd.
Business "unawesome" covers the others side - social media gaffes that are not
well handled, how we misuse Facebook, when not to use a QR code (like on a
highway billboard!), and other stories of people who have single handedly killed
their brand or just their own careers/reputation.
I have gotten cynical with my reviews of business books - too much repetition and
too little original thought. Stratten was a refreshing read. Sure I read some stories I
knew from before, but the presentation was fresh, original, and best of all, quotable. I
am giving a social media talk in a few weeks and intend to use some of his examples.
Thanks to the organization and straightforward style he uses, that will be no problem.
I recommend this book and Stratten's approach to any business person looking to
make himself more "awesome"."
