Future Demand
Why building your brand among tomorrow’s customers matters
Reframing demand for growth
Future Demand by James Hurman reframes long-term brand building as distinct from short-term sales activation, and highlights why both are critical to sustainable growth.
The book explains the difference between harvesting current demand and creating future demand, helping leaders think differently about how marketing drives business over time.
Core ideas from Future Demand
The book introduces readers to a clear distinction between short-term conversion activity and building future demand, with examples and practical framing for business decision-makers.
Harvesting existing demand vs creating future demand
James Hurman distinguishes between advertising designed to convert customers already in the market and activity that builds broader future awareness and preference.
Why future demand matters
Will current demand eventually run out? The book argues that without creating future demand, growth stalls and becomes harder and more expensive.

Written with founders, leaders and marketers in mind, Future Demand is aimed at those responsible for shaping long-term brand strategy.
