One of the toughest jobs a leader has to perform is to act as guardian of an organisation’s values.An organisation’s values are the things that are really important to it.In the early days of an enterprise, the values are sometimes the only thing that keeps the business going. When other factors make the chances of survival doubtful, s
But what are the factors that influence consumer acceptance? First of all we must ask, 'Is a true need being filled?' Consumers are too savvy, busy, and overwhelmed by alternatives to invest in something that does not make their lives more convenient, pleasant, easy, or makes them feel good. For example, the idea of turning the ketchup bottle upside down was brilliant. What took so long to implement the obvious? But is it appropriate and relevant to place every product in an upside down package? Does the concept match the product or is it a forced fit?

The value of education is hard to define. We have heard from parents, teachers and employers that education is a pathway to a better life. Yet we must wonder how far we must go to achieve the lifestyle that we want. Whether we finish high school and start to work or go to our doctoral degree before entering upon an occupation is a personal choice ab

Is relationship marketing strictly a tactic used by small businesses? Do you think that relationship marketing is used when companies don’t have a lot of money to put into advertising?

No, it’s not the historical battle between two New York newspapers in the late 1800’s to see who could dig up the biggest scandal to sell papers. It’s the world of directory publishing you know as the Yellow Pages. Yet ironically, it’s been around as long, if not longer. But it’s gone through many changes in the past ce
The second and more critical aspect of consumer acceptance of innovation is timing. Is the consumer really ready to accept this innovation? To be successful, an innovation must be aligned with consumers' awareness and their ability to understand it. It cannot succeed if the advantages are not clear. For example, I worked with Johnson and Johnson in the 1990s in developing a paper-based secondary form-fill and seal container for storing and dispensing baby wipes. The concept failed in testing. Why? Because the consumer believed wipes in a paper container would dry out faster than those stored in plastic. In truth, the paper version was much better for retaining moisture versus plastic. Consumer perception at that time prevented the marketplace success of this valid innovation. It took another 5-7 years for these products to be accepted in another packaging form - which turned out to be a foil pouch.
Finally, from the marketer's perspective, there is the cost of entry. The first to enter the marketplace wins the position of innovator in the consumer's mind and controls a vital territory. However, that marketer incurs development costs, consumer education and awareness building costs, and, since a good idea will be copied in a short amount of time, t
