Sweet Spot


How do you create a digital strategy that involves customers in an energized social community? How do you create an engaged, active “go-to” website? 

Prophet's David Aaaker says, You must change the orientation of marketing from selling the offering, the brand, and firm to becoming an active partner with a shared interest program around a customer’s “sweet spot.” A sweet spot reflects customers’ “thinking and doing” time, beliefs and values, activities and passions, possessions or places they treasure. Ideally, it would be a part of, if not central to, their self-identity and lifestyle and reflect a higher-order value proposition, much beyond the benefits provided by the offering.
To illustrate, Pampers went beyond diapers by creating the Pampers Village community that provides a “go to” place for all issues relating to babies and child care. Its five sections – pregnancy, newborn, baby, toddler, and preschooler – all have a menu of topics. Its online community allows moms and soon-to-be moms to connect with each other to share their common experiences, issues and thoughts about how to raise a healthy, happy child. The program demonstrates that Pampers understands mothers, and works to establish a relationship between the brand and the mother that will potentially continue throughout the mother’s Pampers buying life.

Beside, the curent hyper-inflation in Nigeria is blamed on the recent resurgence of Adams Smith and liberal economics doctrines (and partly by loyalty to Washington consensus: policies and insititios designed by the US government to globalize capitalism and it's associated cultural systems).

Education vs learning

  From education to learning Education is the hustle for a credential. It exchanges compliance for certification. An institution can educate you. Learning can’t be done to you. It is a choice and it requires active participation, not simple adherence to metrics. Learning is the only place to find resilien¹ce, possibility and contribution, because learning is a lifelong skill that isn’t domain dependent. Most of the learning moments in our lives are accidental or random. A situation presents itself and if we’re lucky, we learn something from it.

 Umpqua Bank competes in the pacific northwest, united states, turns the conventional idea of brand category upside down. Most consumers would never describe  a bank transaction a soul-satisfying, but Oregun-based  Umpqua Bank   become affiliated with cafe/retail categories in order to establish points-of-difference between itself nd other banks.
