David Ogilvy Books
David Ogilvy was a visionary thinker whose work emphasized the importance of meticulous research and adherence to reality. His approach to sales highlighted the quality of salesmanship over mere quantity of calls. He drew inspiration from George Gallup's methods, applying these principles to achieve remarkable success. His influence extends far beyond advertising and marketing.







David Ogilvy was an advertising genius. At the age of 37, he founded the New York-based agency that later merged to form the international company known as Ogilvy & Mather. Regarded as the father of modern advertising, Ogilvy was responsible for some of the most memorable advertising campaigns ever created. Confessions of an Advertising Man is the distillation of all the Ogilvy concepts, tactics, and techniques that made this international best-seller a blueprint for sound business practice. If you aspire to be a good manager in any business, this seminal work is a must-read.
The former, and pioneering, advertising executive recalls with gusto and humor his Scottish childhood and his pre-advertising adventures as a chef in Paris, a salesman in Scotland, a pollster in Hollywood, and a farmer in Pennsylvania
