Reviews

'Marketing to the Poor is must-read for scholars and policy makers who are doing research on low-income consumers. Low-income consumers constitute a five trillion-dollar economy and are structurally transitioning from the unorganized to an organized high growth market with digital commerce and branded products and services. My congratulations to the editors for putting together thought-provoking essays from eminent scholars in the field.' Jagdish N. Sheth, Goizueta Business School, Emory University, USA 'This book is an important read for scholars and practitioners in the domain of marketing to low-income and BOP consumers and producers. It takes thought leadership in this field to the next level.' H.J. Zoffer, Chair in Sustainability and Ethics at University of Pittsburgh, USA 'This is a timely book that distils the latest thinking on the topic from some of the preeminent scholars in the field. A must-read for anyone interested in learning how marketing can enhance well-being in subsistence settings.' Srinivas Venugopal, University of Vermont, USA
