Биография и Путь Автора
John Francis “Jack” Trout was born in New York City on January 31, 1935, the son of a salesman, and came of age with a mix of discipline and competition that would later define his business thinking. He graduated from Iona College in New Rochelle, where he played basketball and tennis, and he also served as a Navy aviator. His business career began in the advertising department at General Electric and continued at Uniroyal before a decisive turn: joining Al Ries in the late 1960s. In 1969, Trout introduced the idea of “positioning,” arguing that brands win by claiming a clear place in the customer’s mind, a concept he and Ries later expanded in trade articles and in the 1981 book Positioning: The Battle for Your Mind.
