•Who is doing this well today? How are they doing this?
•Who is responsible for creating and managing value in your
organization? Why is this important?
•Once you have a customer relationship, how can you migrate and
expand these relationships?
– Well, it all depends on how you define what you do.
•What is the impact on your business and revenue model?

What does Progressive Insurance sell?
What does UPS sell?
What does Home Depot sell?
What does Mosaic Partners sell?

Starbucks aims to provide quality coffee in a relaxed
atmosphere for those seeking a respite between home and
work.
The ambience and service is the same everywhere. This is the vaulted Starbucks
Experience, an elusive halo that competitors desire, but have trouble duplicating.
“It’s very easy to copy the superficiality of the brand; in other words, the look and
feel of the store,” says Maslen.
“The most important thing is how welcome people feel
and the connection they make.” “It’s really a contradiction
in terms – intimacy on a mass scale. But Starbucks is a very
intimate brand.”

don’t sell
We sell

“UPS wants to take over the sweet
spot in the endless loop of goods,
information and capital that all the
packages
[it moves] represent.”
ecompany.com/06.01 (E.g., UPS Logistics manages the
logistics of 4.5M Ford vehicles, from 21 mfg. sites to 6,000
NA dealers)

Nardelli’s goal ($50B to $100B by 2005):
“… move Home Depot beyond selling
‘goods’ to selling ‘home services.’ … He
wants to capture home improvement dollars
wherever and however they are spent.”
E.g.: “house calls” (At-Home Service: $10B by ’05?) … “pros
shops” (Pro Set) … “home project management” (Project
Management System … “a deeper selling relationship”).

Positioning Analysis: Internet Connectivity
Understanding consumers' gradual move
towards collecting and storing experiences
instead of goods (especially in mature
economies), is crucial, whether you sell
luxury handbags or manufacture cars.
So how are you enabling your
customers to make the
experience last?

Intangible Value is Real Value
Q: What is the value creation dynamic that is propelling the need for creative
offerings in experiential marketing services?

Intangible Value is Real Value
Q: Why should retailers create theme-park like environments in their stores?
Source: Pine and Gilmore
A: Toys 'R Us knows. Their 110,000 sq. ft. flagship store in Time Square has become the destination
for thrill seekers, make-believe princesses and Jurassic fans of all ages. The store boasts a working
60-ft. Ferris wheel, a two-story Barbie doll house, and a five-ton, 20 ft. high, 34-ft. long animatronic
T-Rex dinosaur. John Eyler, Chairman of Toys 'R Us, said:
"How do you compete with something like Wal-Mart? Our strategy is to make a store that is visually
exciting, one that sells concepts and ideas instead of just boxes on a shelf. For years people have
talked about the idea of retailment, which is about bringing theater and drama to retailing, but there
are hardly any examples." - New York Times 2-17-02
OVER 30,000,0000 PEOPLE HAVE VISITED THIS STORE IN ITS FIRST YEAR!

Marketing Migration Measures
“The Loyalty Effect” Example: Why is Customer Retention so Important?
Customer Experience Cycle
Referrals:
Over 60% of sales may result from
referrals. Conversely, the average
dissatisfied customer will tell 10
others about their bad experience.
Increased Purchases:
Loyalty Effect = Acquisition Cost - Price Premium Reduced Cost to Serve - Referrals - Increased Purchases
Over 40% of highly satisfied
customers increase their purchases
based upon their positive
experience.
Acquisition Cost:
Price Premium:
Reduced Cost to Serve:
It costs five times more to
attract a new customer
than to retain an old
customer.
High customer satisfaction
companies charge 9 percent
more than poor customer
satisfaction companies.
In the insurance industry, a
5% increase in customer
retention lowers the cost per
policy by 18%.

Sustainable growth is not about products!
Value is migrating from products to solutions and experience!
Solutions and experiences are customer dependent!
Value can’t be applied evenly across all customers!
Value must be created for customers, business partners, ecosystem participants, etc.
You can’t do it all, so partner (build ecosystem) to create value through solutions!
Unbundle your value!
Understand the personal/ intimate needs of your customers!
Rebundle your value!
Invest in your intangible value (assuming your product is good)!
Focus on internal branding where all employees can communicate (with passion)
who you are, what you do, and how you are different!
• Think about the relationship – even when closing on a transaction!
