"An excellent guide from a trusted source, this book will fast-track knowledge for managers wishing to develop their strategy or indeed their strategic thinking." * Professor Stuart Roper, Huddersfield Business School, University of Huddersfield *

Thanks to his lifelong experience as a market researcher, Hague is able to thoroughly explain these models and also to provide case studies on how to use them. The Business Models Handbook is a practical text that all marketing experts should read." * Jeroen Beukeboom, Global Market Intelligence Leader and Senior Analyst, AkzoNobel Industrial Coatings *
"As well as being an absolute must for any MBA student, this superbly well-chosen collection of tools and models will not only save the life of many a business executive with a challenging presentation to make, but might just make life a little better for their audiences into the bargain.
