Voting Question: 1. What have been the key success factors for Sony?

Sony Started as a radio repair shop, founded by Masuru Ikura and Akio Morita after Would War II. The company began its long history of producing compact consumer electronics in 1957, when it introduced the World’s first pocket-sized all-transistor radio. The company’s name, Sony, was taken from Sony, the Latin word for “sound” Sony went on to invest a series of transistor-based TVs and increasingly smaller audiocassette recorders. In 1979, the Sony Walkman introduced the World to a new, portable way of listening to music. Sony became a world leader in consumer electronics and was the first Japanese company to have its shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange. In the late 1980s, Sony began expanding into media, purchasing a U.S. record company (CSB records for $22 billion in 1988). And a major Hollywood studio (Columbia Pictures for $4.9 billion in 1989). The purchases made Sony a major force in the entertainment industry. The importance of marketing at Sony started with Akio Morita, who said that for a company to be successful, it must have three kinds of creativity: creativity to make inventions, creativity in planning and production, and creativity in marketing. Creativity in marketing at Sony means not just cleaver ads, but deep insight into its customers. For example, Sony knows its playstation customers like to find clues and to decode things. So Sony’s ads for playstation 2, like “Signs,” feature a young man walking the streets of a city where he encounters various signs foreshadowing the events. Mannequins appear in a store window, arms outstretched, and point enigmatically to something that’s about to happen. “The lead character is almost in the midst of his own role-playing game. He needs to follows clues to save the heroine”, said Andrew House, Sony’s executive vice president of marketing. In the ads, “we were essentially trying to tap into a range of emotions that we think we deliver in the games – intrigue, forebonding, excitement, panic, relief and achievement at the end”. Sony’s marketing also includes careful measurement of each campaign’s effectiveness. Foe example, Sony runs 30-second commercials for its Playstation as part of the previews in more than 1,800 theatres and on 8,000 movie screens. The ads appear before such films as “The Cat in the Hat”. Sony Computer Entertainment America has been running movie ads for six years.” Cinema advertising has been very effective for us”, said Amil Blaire, director of product marketing.” The reason why we have committed to cinema every year is the tremendous unaided recall shown by our own research and communicus – commissioned ad tracking”. Another example of measurement is Sony’s GenY youth marketing efforts. “The online program promoting the NetMD ATRAC CD Walkman and Cybershot U30 ran July 1 through September 30, 2003, and we found that more than 70 percent static banners”, said Serge Del Grosso, Director of Media and Internet Strategy, Sony Electronics”. In fact, Sony has even developed a direct-marketing solution which it sells to other companies who want to measure marketing effectiveness. The product, called eBridge[TM], allows marketers to use video, measure the effectiveness of the campaign, and gain insight into the target audience, all in one package. Sony expects that the next big breakthrough will not come from a single new electronic device.Rather, Sony President Kunitake Ando says that the future lies in making a whole range of devices more usefully linking them in a networked home-entertainment system. The company believes that its clout in consumer electronics, combined with its media content, will allow it to steer that convergence in a way that suits it. Whether the future of convergence resides in TV’s or PC’s or devices , $62-billion Sony makes every one of them- with a strong brand name that gives them an extra push off retail shelves around the world. 1. What have been the key success factors for Sony? 2. What recommendations would you make to senior marketing executives going forward? What should they he sure to do with its marketing? more

Resolved Question: Herbalife, swindling the world ?

Friends and family: Do already part of this "multinational" social for some weight loss and allows them to generate income? But is it effective?, Are adelgaza?, Does it make money? To some opportunity (year 2005) I put my résumé www.infoempleos.cl, and I received an e-mail in which I was invited to an interview with formal attire for a job in a company. When I arrived there, I met a lot of people who came to the same interview. They came formal and informal, of course, some graduates were professionals, while others were not and with various levels of education (how I came to that conclusion? Because because I got to talk with them, not all of course). When we went rotate among en masse to take elevators and reach the floor of the alleged company, we find the advertising banners and Herbalife. What they describe the faces of several of frustration (professionals), because they thought it was a "work of truth." While others still did not know what it was, but were hopeful that expensive to have a job. I had already heard of Herbalife, but decided to continue to learn a bit more. We are invited to move to a room with chairs and a projector, and for a presentation, and some smiling faces of people stops next to the projector, we indicated that they would make the presentation. They began to give some testimonies of the "fat" that had been before and that when consuming Herbalife products are now very weak. Even placed face surprise among them, saying: "Hey!, But how well you are!". Then went to talk Herbalife and what it was business. And quickly, began to talk of distribution chains, the product package, the acquisition of the membership to be part of the "team" Herbalife, and then to give testimonies of how much they earned per month in sales. The most was a woman who won with pride and satisfaction indicated $ 1,000,000 per month. But curious, showing how much they earned in sales, but did not say how much it spent to acquire the products they sell (or perhaps had inferred that they were net gains?). I occasionally looked at the lady who was next to me, who looked at the projection, graphics, numbers, the people who spoke and I wondered whether she was mentally understand something, but he wanted to ask. Then, of this presentation, was invited to a "personal interview" who were still interested in the business. Of course starting to access this interview, he had to pay like $ 50,000 per membership. Finally I went, and spent time. Today, as I walked down the street, I will give you a piece of paper that said something like this: "INDEPENDENT ACTION: There is a need for serious and responsible people to work part time or full, request interviews….", I get a wireless number and letter gmail. Herbalife attacked again, I thought, usually of this working methodology. It was also helped by surveying people on the street, and they spend a tarjetita, or that message to stick in the file that reads: "Want to know how to lose weight?. I say how ", or something like that. The issue is that this business has not been stranger to controversy, even with litigation in the United States. Why pyramid scam?. Well, this is a label that I have seen appoint some Internet sites that speak ill of Herbalife. And once, reflecting on the matter, I concluded that it is not as wrong labels. Well, the business is that a person sells products to others. If you can convince these people to buy it, the first person becomes distributor (buy products and sells them). But at the same time, so that people look at the purchase of an additional attraction products, can be part of the business, selling to other people. Therefore, the business has two locks. One is that this will lower weight, and the other is that besides you win a lot of money. But it turns out that if Extrapolating from a business person, the more people want to enter the business, the more money becomes the first person. But they always, there will be a last level of people who not only buy and sell (go, this is similar to the "inequality" of the much-talked between income, education, étc.) Business, enriches a few few, and some impoverished many more

Resolved Question: I know that advertising is essential to the survivals of many firms, but I am still wondering something?

1) Each time I visit a website or read newspapers, I ignore the ads section. So do many people in my country. So what is the impact of advertising in my country (a developing country) if many people don't care about it? What about people in other developed countries? 2) Some national firms are very famous. A prominent bank in my country puts a lot of banners on streets' trees, in web newspaper .... They only features the name of the bank and something like "Happy new year!" They don't inform people about new services or new type of cards, etc. I wonder if they are effective. Everyone knows the bank, and a small banners on trees or websites won't matter much. Am I right? 3) Last year, a group of students held a one-week conference between some other students and some students from America, hoping to improve understandings between students from two countries. Google was among the sponsors. Why do they have to sponsor a small conference? Google is already very well-known. Thanks!! more

Resolved Question: Is there a way to avoid advertising?

Advertising isn’t just showing off products, it is tricking people into buying products – product of the year just means the company paid for the banner to show off, 85% of women agreed just means a few women out of 75 tested said it was ok, the science part isn't science at all. It is also subconsciously putting ideas into people's heads about how things are – women are the ones who clean the house, men are stupid and bad drivers to boot, you are ugly without make-up, you have to wear Lynx to attract women… Advertising is everywhere, it is not just kept to the media anymore, on the sides of busses, in our streets, in our toilets...yes because I appreciate being told my vagina smells and I need to fill it with toxic chemicals while I'm sitting in a public loo...really I do[n't]! Is there a way to avoid advertising? Turning the TV over or just not watching, not buying magazines, not listening to the radio, that's all easy enough to do but what about other places?There are many cases where corporations seem to have more power than governing bodies that are there to regulate their practices in the interests of the general public, it does not seem fair that we just have to take in advertising from everywhere with no way of counteracting any harmful messages being given (as we can just not buy the products, but the ideas they portray are harder to ignore). There is subvertising, it is amazing how something little like this can give people the power to counteract advertising when they lack the means to compete with their messages on the same mass degree, but subvertising can be illegal (i.e. defacing or altering advertisements to counter the ideas being shown). Surely if we cannot counteract advertising on our own level there should be some way out, of avoiding advertising? Even if we had to pay for it – such as with things like Sky Plus perhaps we could pay for an option that gets rid of advertising on TV and radio.If not avoid - then limit. Although I agree society dictates advertising I also think it works both ways; if companies had more morals/ethics then a lot of advertising would not exist and so the messages being sent out that these attitudes are ok would not exist either – if media does not say 'this is ok' less people would believe it is ok. For example; Advertisements for commercial menstrual products or feminine washes, they are harmful to health and send out negative messages about the female body. The companies are working on taboos already existing, but they use those taboos and work upon them to keep their customer base and make more money, in using those taboos they are keeping them alive and so effecting society.Yes some advertising is also positive - for example ads that warn people not to do stupid things, because many members of society need to be told such things. But society allows for many lies in advertising and poor ethics because, well, many mambers of society are ignorant and/or stupid so don't see the problem. If it is believed that people need to be told to cook meat correctly, then surely it should also follow that media and advertising should not tell people lies about products that could harm them? more
