Re: Lessons Learned from AOL & Facebook on Unbundling

kspidel — Thu, 10 Jul 2014 02:16:19 -0000

So many things wrong with this Legacy products to evolve take steps. Were they right? Oh hell no!!! But "bundling" is more in many verticals that your simple statement. You are in a silo. That said, I don't disagree, but you just scratched the surface of many "legacy" brands. More that this scope. I love you brother, but this shape of the "Unbundling" movement in MANY verticals (categories of SMB and Large Local) needs the bridge, needs the management of experts that light up a network, channel and/or IMPS. Not just the Unbundling or bundling of channels. God... that is my surface level convo. So much to say. Sorry for the rant, but could say so much more.

In a way, yes. But algorithms of spinning and association based on human decision, much like Siri. Wasn't sure if this would offend people, or people have fun with it. Thanks for playing!

Jim,

Thanks. I too agree with Gary and am thankful he raised the issue. If this space is to evolve, people need to define their role in it in a way that betters the business models. Speaking of which, how is the book tour? Where can I pick up the book? I need to implement your ideas in our work place!

Rob, Thanks.... we were using ExactTarget previously and found it limiting. We did a search for optimizing landing pages within ET and a PPC campaign for Marketo came up, with a compelling landing page stressing the pain points of ET. Very compelling and we identified to it. Did a quick demo and was wow'ed. Our Marketing Director knew about this system from industry folk and her eye was already on it. She did the first demo. I followed. She championed it internally and we saw the uses being strong case for us. So far we are impressed. We went the the user conference a few weeks ago. Stay tuned for more updates!

Angela,

Thank you. It really depends if you are focused on personal branding or business branding. If you plan to have many projects that are part of the DNA of your personal brand, then rock your personal brand. Many small businesses are solely focused on their business and their customers. Hence the recommendation above. If you are interested in more personal branding ideas, feel free to drop me an email at kevin.spidel@gannettlocal.com.

A little more detail...

Customer Loyalty 2.0 is an evolution from not just providing loyalty programs, but engaging your customers as word of mouth marketing agents. Empowering your customer base to re-market for you. Building customer loyalty and putting tools in the hands of your customers to become brand advocates is the next evolution in small business branding. Hope this helps.
