内容简介:Today's overwhelmed, overworked, and stressed out consumers and executives are bombarded with an endless stream of ever louder and flashier marketing attempts to capture attention.

Ott, CEO of a bustling Silicon Valley consultancy and busy mother of two active children, explores the economics of time and attention - helping companies understand the Time-Value Tradeoffs and Time-graphics of their customers.

Ott argues that time and technology have changed the competitive landscape and that smart companies must use them as strategic weapons. Filled with fascinating case studies and examples from leading-edge companies like Digital Chocolate, Nike, and Shutterfly, "
