5/9/2014 Friday....blessed Friday

Quotable

 
...is another word for lucky. Someone needs to get lucky, and it might even be you, but luck is not a strategy.
Becoming good in the long run, that's the result of effort and tenacity and smart practice.
Not just the individual, the kid who doesn't learn to walk the first day, or the violinist who doesn't win a competition at the age of eight, but organizations and their projects as well.
The people who are good in the long run fail a lot, especially at the beginning. So, when you fail early, it might be worth realizing that this is part of the deal, the price you pay for being good in the long run.
Every rejection is a gift. A chance to learn and to do it better next time. An opportunity to figure out how to bounce, not break. Don't waste them.
Sometimes, getting lucky at the start means that you fail to learn resilience and tenacity, and you lack the tools to get better. The long run is a lot longer than the start is.

Should you get weary of focusing for sooooo long.....

Great video about the power of MIM and CRM (MIM is the collection and CRM is the application)
CRM Trust - Lewinsky and Clinton   - and the trust will never be repaired
A bank that breaks up with you?  Yes, it can happen
A more in depth article, but of the same type....
Now think about CRM, Customer Relationship Management and how these examples could play havoc with that relationship.  Trust is gone and what now?  Where does one go?

Just a couple of things to ponder.


Was reading outside of class....about class, I know, a dangerous precedent.
I will begin outside readings....more importantly, you will begin outside readings in preparation for Monday.
Your assignment due by Monday morning....Pre-read 4.01......you will be responsible for this information for discussion.
I also found several things that would apply back to the class in my readings.  I will either copy or post online via link on Monday.
Good Luck!

Is digital the end of luxury brands?

Luxury goods as we know them were invented/amplified/regulated by Colbert in the 1600s. At the beginning, luxury goods were better goods--better made, better leather, etc. This was actually a huge insight, and one that generated billions of dollars of revenue over the years.
Over time, as others figured out how to make things just as well as the 'luxury' brands could (the triumph of industrialism), the label on the item, the brand, became at least as important as what was made. The brand is a tribal signifier, a way of demonstrating good taste and a membership in the elite. People pay extra partly for the privilege of paying extra. For a very long time, a sale on luxury goods made no sense, because the fact that it wasn't on sale was precisely what made it a luxury good.

It's this selling of the logo, of Hermes or Chanel or Champagne that made the last fifty years of luxury production such an extraordinary opportunity. Add to this a growing cadre of the newly wealthy, eager for a badge, and it's nearly perfect. Feed the tribe, maintain the value of the logo and you actually get paid a premium for making the thing cost more. 
And then, the outlet stores showed up and Ralph Lauren danced the line between mass and class, selling logos big and small, at all price points. When anyone can make a nice shirt, which nice shirt should you pay extra for? H&M took this even further. There's still plenty of money being spent on the expensive, but the concentation of brand impact is diluting, quickly.
Here's what shifted just recently: In the post-industrial connection economy, we often value networks more than we value stuff. We'd rather have a working smart phone than a fancy car. We'd rather be invited to the right conferences than wear expensive shoes. Logos are worth less, easier to copy and not as valuable a tribal signifier as they were.

And yet...
And yet elites (of all kinds) still desire a way to demonstrate their inclusion into certain groups, groups that aren't open to all. And human beings still seek out the best of something, the item that carries with it the magic of a trained hand, of a bespoke origin and of the nostalgia for the special thing we remember.

I don't think think the luxury industry will disappear, but without a doubt, it is changing. Charging more is one tactic, but it might not be the only one.
