  22. New Paradigm • Sell your idea first • Find your actors (audience) first • Size does not matter - PlentyOfFish • Reduce risk by pushing control out • Value creation increases at the edge • Decentralize authority, process, and IP • Transparency creates value • Truth travels fast • Price alone is not sustainable • Reengineer your value chain • Skip intermediaries wherever possible • Reinvent your business models • Change the status quo

  23. New Paradigm • Democratization of 4Ps paradigm • Citizen branding • Collective collaboration • Collective risk sharing • Collective product innovation • Collective IP ownership • Citizen marketers will sell “remarkable” ideas • Innovators should adopt the 1% rule • If you don’t find the “sneezers” or connectors, the 80/20% rule won’t matter • Work backwards • Build your brand around your idea first. If the community you are targeting does not coalesce and rally around the idea, continuing to build the product is irrelevant • Create your own “blue ocean” • If you play it safe and go by the rules of your industry, value chain, and business model – you’re dead! • Most industries and markets are saturated and highly concentrated.

  24. Old 4Ps Paradigm Value Creator Customer 4Ps

  25. New Paradigm Value Innovator Customer Product Brand 4Ps

  27. It’s About Social Behavior • It’s not about a cheaper product or your idea. Try to change customer behavior. • It’s not about better coffee – it’s about the place • I am not looking for a ¼” drill bit – I need to make a hole • It’s not about the hog, it’s about a lifestyle • It’s not about the sound – it’s about how it makes me feel • It’s not about the sound – it’s about being hip • It’s about my space • It’s about my video • It’s about my opinion • It’s about the experience • It’s about your choices, places, and time • Examples • Apple, Starbucks, JetBlue, MySpace, Harley-Davidson, Tivo, Stew Leonard’s, Threadless

  28. Implications • Reached the tipping point • The static web maturing • Monologue marketing out • Live Web (a/k/a Blogosphere) is making information transparent • Word travels fast • People are more likely to act on a peer’s recommendation by factor X • Marketing is a reflection of social paradigms • The new social media and networks changing customer expectation and behavior
