Value - What are you worth?

PESTLE model



Druker - A marketing writer /expert argued that innovation is the tool of entrepreneurship. Both international and entrepreneurship demand creativity. Creativity is the process by which culture is changed.

Michaly - Theories about marketing 'Act of seeing things that everyone around us see while making connections that no-one else makes'

David Hockney helped people see things differently in his local town:


Phillip Kotler - A marketing strategy
CCDVTP



Product management - Open technology
Brand management - A promise, Inspiration, emotional not just about logo or packaging
Customer management - Meet the customers/ More personal than the database helps to create products




New approaches to using Customers as a resource eg Innocent smoothie.  Buy things emotionally not out of need.

We need insight to what makes people stick

Basic human needs have not changed:
  • Security
  • Habitat
  • Social/Co-operate
  • Social strata developed
  • Status symbols - Education, position, labels, fast cars
  • Spiritual needs - Music, Theatre, sports and religion
To help you ful-fill people's needs we need to understand people's motivation.

Maslow's Hierarchy of needs 


Advertisers play on our need for love and belonging.

Design is applied psychology- fulfilling people's needs.

Art is applied philosophy

Being useful and entertaining

Dan Germain video


Consumer behaviour changes in a downturn.  We need to keep telling people why we are useful.  retain usefulness and be interesting





Look at Ted talks Creativity http://www.ted.com/search?q=creativity

Vivian Westwood is an original thinker.  She says she never watches TV as TV is a form of massive distraction.

Where is the money?

Greatest human needs - Greatest market potential - Food, Housing, utilities and medicine.

Reduced human needs -  Lower market potential - Esteem, self- actualisation, Organic farming, Holiday cottages and health Spas.


Where does the money go?

40% on housing

Transportation is not in Maslow's hierarchy of needs as not everything is local.
