Trade Review
The Handbook of Entrepreneurship and Marketing is a welcome addition to the growing interest in the theory and practice of marketing by executives of small and medium enterprises. This volume is a timely resource for academics as it contributes to the literature while advancing our knowledge of the expanding field of entrepreneurial marketing.’ -- Claude Cellich, Journal of Euromarketing
'Fillis and Telford have compiled interesting entrepreneurial marketing content from a wide variety of scholars. The chapters on networking, crowdfunding, social media, storytelling, and software are on-target in today's entrepreneurial world, as is the intermingling of social entrepreneurship through discussions of mindful thinking. Add to that the focused chapters on arts and culture, and I was quickly immersed in exploring how entrepreneurship and marketing intertwine in today's fast-paced world of pivoting quickly.'
--Victoria Crittenden, Babson College, US


'This book gives you everything you need to know about entrepreneurial marketing. It is unique in that it describes the latest trends in entrepreneurial marketing, such as crowdfunding, social entrepreneurship, and entrepreneurship in the arts and cultural industries, while also prescribing the latest techniques for us to go out there and explore entrepreneurial marketing for ourselves, such as narratives, storytelling, and the 4S model. This synthesis is a catalyst for any researcher or practitioner in the field.'
--Paul Harrigan, The University of Western Australia
