Theory Burst (fear not) From Consumer Marketing to Customer Moment Marketing ©Zwick
21ST Century Marketing Challenges • FRAGMENTATION!! • Attention • Demand • Community and Communication ©Zwick
Attention Economy • Fragmented media • Consumers tuning out or completely skipping messages • 61% of consumers say that marketers and advertisers do not treat them with respect • 69% are interested in products or services that would help them skip or block advertising • Poor Information/Metrics on effectiveness ©Zwick
Long Tail (Chris Anderson) • Fragmented Demand • Niches are Riches ©Zwick
What is “Natural Demand”? • The “Head” of the Demand Curve: • Pre-Internet, old economy firms turned out a small number of “hits” or blockbuster products • The “Tail” of the Demand Curve: • Internet-era, new economy firms offer a broader range of niche products. ©Zwick
The Head • Prior to the Internet, production, distribution, and consumption focused on a few hits because of scarcity of resources: • time, space, and money • The 80/20 rule ©Zwick
The Long Tail • Costs of reaching niches down! ©Zwick
To Summarize: • In virtually all markets, there are far more niche goods than hits • The cost of reaching those niches is now falling dramatically. • The demand curve flattens. • There are still hits and niches, but the hits are relatively less popular and the niches relatively more so. • All the niches add up. • The natural shape of demand is revealed. ©Zwick
Is there a Long Tail? • www.rogerebert.com hosts more than ten thousand reviews • June 2006, these movies were big: • The Da Vinci Code • Brokeback Mountain • V for Vendetta • X-Men: The Last Stand • An Inconvenient Truth The question: what percentage of clicks went to any of these reviews? ©Zwick
Is there a Long Tail? • Web traffic statistics show that even the most popular film represents less than 1 percent of their business. • The Da Vinci Code .8% • Brokeback Mountain .8% • V for Vendetta .7% • X-Men: The Last Stand .6% • An Inconvenient Truth .5% The lesson: People are curious about a lot of different movies. ©Zwick
Brands/Companies as Platforms • Social communication theory • From attention to recognition • “Open-source marketing” • Wikis, forums, communities ©Zwick
So, together • Fragmentation, Long Tail, Social Communication makes reaching and keeping the attention of your customer ever harder. ©Zwick
