One we dive into deeply is called "Deliberate Downgrading." You're not going to want to miss it.

What happens if a fight breaks out? Do you even need knives and guns anymore? How about an army of Twitter bots? That seems to be what is winning the narrative economics game and we show how it played out in regard to the recent Gillette ad.

And data from Ask Suzy shows younger consumers don't want to Kickstart anything but would rather co-collaborate on a product's design. Does the infrastructure for this exist or is it something for those dabbling in design to think about?
