Marketing and PR departments in most organizations globally are completely broken.

Marketers generate advertisements; and that are interruptive and rely on their ability to lie to customers.

The customers are totally tired of marketers selling non-sense to them. They are searching for solutions and products like yours on the internet. They are reading everything they can find, and they are educating themselves on the best options available. They are doing that by making assessments about you by reading, listening, watching what you have said, and what others have said about you.

This sort of transparency was not available befor. But the ‘world of marketing’ has been displaced. Old PR and Marketing departments and external agencies, that traditionally sat behind their mahogany desk sipping expensive whiskeys at your expense, are unwilling to change, are not able to keep up with technology, and are failing to take advantage of the new communications networks to their full extent. Just getting subscriptions and pushing content through SalesForce, Marketo, HootSuite and HubSpot is rendering sufficient results.

You need a fundamental guidelines and a strategy for the new golden era. To do business here, you need to build a new network of conversations and offers, that your customers find artistic and useful.

People that are beginning to win in the new golden era of democratized business, ushered by internet, are the ones that adhere to a new fundamental set of ethics and practices. They establish themselves through series of offers to their potential customers that customers find enlightening and educating about available options and measures of analysis for products and services, to fulfill their needs and address breakdowns such as disappearance of good sales leads.

Naturally this sort of dialogue between you and a potential customer is established through e-books, blogs, twitter feeds, emails, events, courses, short films, courses, lectures, classes, white papers, infographics, short films, facebook updates and through many other mediums. The mediums might change but the fundamental essence for what’s good and healthy for the market, does not change.

Lean , invented by Ford, and perfected by Toyoda has become the system of choice for innovation and productizing in all corners of the world.
