Brian Halligan, co-founder and CEO, Hubspot, NYSE: HUBS
When the unstoppable force of Anders' furious futurist's intellect crashes into the immovable object of his mother's sense of family and tradition, sparks fly. Our hero's journey turns out to be anything but seamless. It holds lessons for all of us pushing the digital envelope in a persistently analogue world.
Mike Hanley, Head of Digital Communications, World Economic Forum
Anders has never been one to settle and as a result, we are all benefactors of his restless, curious nature, of his fresh ideas, well-plotted hypotheses and that ingenious way he wraps up the past, present and future into a timely, mind-bending bundle for readers to unpack.
Lisa Messenger, founder and editor-in-chief of Collective Hub
The future doesn't unfold seamlessly—often, it's a slap in the face. How do we shed the scar tissue keeping us locked in the status quo? Transformation can be restorative or destructive—the difference is in the approach. The future belongs to those brands that are able to weave together the past, the present and the future into a seamless and inspirational hero's journey.
Seamless provides the antidote to the friction, inconvenience, arrogance and grating seams that turn customers away and cement organisational inertia. In this insightful book, author and futurist Anders Sörman-Nilsson shows you how to smooth transitions, integrate disparate channels and give your customers the streamlined experience they crave.

Anders takes us on a personal journey exploring the big questions of how to adapt to a cultural change that is sweeping the world!
John Scully, Former Apple CEO
Well-researched, deeply insightful and incredibly useful. Not a how-to, a what’s next.
Seth Godin, author of The Icarus Deception
Anything that can be digitised will be digitised. But can the digital connect ever really replace the personal touch? Is word-of-mouse really more effective than word-of-mouth? And what of customers’ enduring need for analogue experiences (think analogue watches, paperback books and multiplex movie theatres, for example)? In your rush to embrace your customers’ digital minds are you ignoring an equally valuable asset: their analogue hearts? On the flipside, in your nostalgic yearnings to retain the legacy and heritage of your brand, are you forgetting to provide value to your customers’ increasingly digitised minds?
How can you leverage both the digital minds and analogue hearts of tomorrow’s customer to provide your company and brand with an unbeatable competitive edge? The answer, according to internationally acclaimed futurist Anders Sörman-Nilsson, is Digilogue – the translational sweet spot, the convergence of the digital and the analogue.
A book that will revolutionise how you do business in a digital world, Digilogue provides powerful insights, strategies and tools to help you:
• Reconise the technological and behavioural trends driving disruption and get ahead of your competitors
• Develop your brand to engage digital minds while connecting with analogue hearts
• Identify what to digitize and what not to digitize in your business
• Connect more intimately with your customers and forge lasting bonds of loyalty.
