"I read Playboy for the articles"

Sim, eu leio a Playboy por causa dos artigos altamente estimulantes. Da mesma maneira que as mulheres compram Manolo Blahniks com 15 cm de salto porque são óptimos para andar na calçada portuguesa.

"I read Playboy for the articles": Justifying and Rationalizing Questionable Preferences" - Um excelente paper da Harvard Business School sobre racionalizações e justificações.

Ou como diria o Sr. Rory Sutherland (Ogilvy UK): "Man, many scientists now believe, may not really be a rational animal but a post-rationalising animal."

A Era dos "Especialistas"

"Western culture assumes that a responsible individual will defer to the opinion of an expert (...) Experts have the last word on topics of public interest and increasingly on matters to do with people's private affairs. We are advised to seek and heed to advice of a bewildering chorus of personal experts -- parenting specialists, life coaches, relationship gurus, super-nannies and sex therapists, to name a few -- who apparently possess the authority to tell us how to live our lives."

"Food for thought"

"I definitely think we're different now. Our attention spans are shorter and we think we can answer every question immediately - thank you, Google and Wikipedia."
-- Douglas Coupland, The Sunday Times, 13.09.09

Quando começa a conversa com o consumidor?

“Customers take longer to find a solution than we think. Companies tend to focus on their initial contact with customers, believing that shoppers’ experience with a product or service begins when they walk into a store or visit a Web site.

In fact, their journey begins much, much earlier. The easy availability of information on the Internet today allows customers to form opinions from countless sources. Conversations on Facebook, e-mail, and discussion boards steer consumers well before companies have had a chance to pitch their product or service."

"Food for thought"

"We hire from a generation of people, younger than me, who understand the way the world is currently configured and want to be the first people to create an app or redesign something rather than just get a 30-second film out of the building shot by the latest director."
-- Laurence Green, Fallon London

"We Live in Public"

Os nossos rituais matinais mudaram.

Acordamos demanhã e a 1ª coisa que fazemos já não é o xixizinho customado, mas ir antes pró Facebook espiar a vida dos outros ou actualizar a nossa.

E tudo porque hoje "vivemos em público" e sofremos de conectividade compulsiva.
