It’s no longer enough to shout marketing slogans from the rooftops and expect people to buy your products. Today’s customers are smarter than ever thanks to the transparency and power that has come with the internet. 

The world is moving faster than ever thanks to the emergence of disruptive technologies and businesses are facing increasing volatility and uncertainty. As such, marketing campaigns need to truly speak to customer desires and be adaptable enough to move in step with the changing landscape and buyer behaviours.

Traditional, long-term, above the line marketing campaigns are now mostly the domain of few industry behemoths - the rest of us need to be a little more targeted and intentional with our marketing but with so many potential marketing channels to choose from, where does one even begin?

The lean startup is a method popularised by Eric Ries’ book of the same name and is widely used by startups and more recently, large companies, to quickly test market appetite for new products by using low fidelity prototypes to rapidly experiment and validate or invalidate key assumptions underpinning a business idea. “Speed is fundamental to success” says Ries. Fortunately, this approach can be adopted for marketing campaigns too.

In this episode I talk through 8 steps detailing how to pull off your own lean marketing strategy to find new customers for new products.

Most of us are familiar with Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. The theory on psychological health is now almost 70 years old, but rings as true today as it did when it first emerged in 1943. It is even more pronounced today with the emergence of millennials in the west who tend to chase purpose rather than just profit, in stark contrast to prior generations, a testament to having already met their other needs.

One could draw parallels between this hierarchy and the hierarchy of needs when it comes to innovation within a large company.

In this FFF, I dig a little deeper into what I’ll dub the Hierarchy of Needs for Corporate Innovation.
