Perennial seller
The Art of Making and Marketing Work that Lasts
Book • 2017
In 'Perennial Seller', Ryan Holiday explores the principles behind creating works that endure and thrive long after their initial release.
He argues that these 'perennial sellers' are not flukes but are built to last from the outset.
The book is divided into four parts: the creative process, positioning, marketing, and platform.
Holiday uses examples from various industries, including music, restaurants, and literature, to illustrate how creators can ensure their work remains relevant and continues to attract new customers over time.
He emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach to both the creation and marketing of the work, as well as the need for patience, dedication, and a strong platform of loyal supporters.
