An insightful look at how Amazon really works and how its founder and CEO makes it happen.
Amazon's business model is deceptively simple: make online shopping so easy and convenient that customers won't think twice. It can almost be summed up by the button on every page: Buy now with one click.
Why has Amazon been so successful? Much of it has to do with Jeff Bezos, the CEO and founder, whose unique combination of character traits and business strategy have driven Amazon to the top of the online retail world. Originally a computer nerd rather than a businessman, he had the vision to capitalize on the untapped online marketplace for bookselling and continues to discover new marketing opportunities, from groceries to auto parts. He's a calculating machine, high energy, passionate, highly aggressive, and out to radically transform retail.
Through numerous interviews with Amazon employees, competitors, and observers, Richard Brandt has deciphered how Bezos thinks, what drives his actions, and how he makes decisions. Anyone in business can learn a lot from the example of Amazon's ongoing evolution.
Richard L. Brandt is an award-winning journalist who has been writing about Silicon Valley for more than two decades. He is well known throughout the technology community as a former correspondent for BusinessWeek, where he won a National Magazine Award. He lives in San Francisco. Visit richardbrandt.com
1997年Amazon工程师Hartman开发了One Click Ordering,用一键购物来简化购物流程, 一旦推出Bezos立刻申请专利,居然放有长达19页的流程描述!之后任何需要One Click功能的厂商被迫支付庞大的Royalty给Bezos,甚至包括大名鼎鼎的苹果,我们熟悉的Itune无不如此。他是天使还是魔...
评分永远把顾客放在第一位,即使这意味着需要作出减少收入的决定。不过从长远来看,这会是一项可以获利的策略。另一点就是,为了从这些决策中获利,多想想未来,少顾虑现在。即使未来意味着好几年以后,不过总这样想,那个未来可能会来得更快些。你的竞争对手可能会因此憎恨你,但...
评分会看这本书,有两个主要的诱因: 1. google reader中订阅了魏武挥的博客,最近他的文章对这本书有一定的评价,虽然评价是中性的,并且提到了文中的内容对于业内人士来说似乎没有什么太不为人所知的,但仍然激起了我的兴趣。 2. 最近开始看Kindle版的电子书,当然,不是纯正的Ki...
评分RT。如果图书馆能借,就别去买电子版,更别去买纸质书。 1,贝佐斯在中国可能有点被神化,他被塑造成跟资本市场(股东)相对抗的角色——忘记眼前,而考虑长远——可实际上,贝佐斯同样做过压缩成本去追求盈利的事,在互联网泡沫到来以及投资人不断质疑时,贝佐斯以裁员1500元...
介于还行和较差之间
评分不太喜欢这作者的文笔,写的也不够深入。我有幸在亚马逊工作过两年,对 two pizza team 的理念记忆犹新。这么大的一个公司还能允许这样灵活的团队安排,并鼓励创新,挺了不起的。
评分8月28日-9月4日。都是侧面在写,作者没有真正采访过传主。
评分讲述了Jeff Bezos和Amazon的创业史,Richard L. Brandt是美国著名记者,虽然不像 Michael Lewis让我喜欢,但一样值得推荐。
评分偏执狂再次成功
