Stuff vs experiences (parte III)

Parte I e parte II.
"people are shifting from a materialistic mindset to an “experientialist” one.
...
Businesses need to make money to prosper, but they don't necessarily need to sell physical stuff. They need to have sustaining business models that result in profit. The message of Stuffocation isn't anti-consumerism, anti-capitalism or even anti-business. The message of Stuffocation, for businesses, is that the best place to connect with consumers and be sustainable in the long term is to evolve away from business plans based on materialism, and toward strategies based on experientialism. So instead of trying to sell as much material stuff as possible — which will exacerbate all the problems that come with Stuffocation, like damaging the planet, creating clutter in people's homes, causing anxiety and stress — smart businesses will dematerialize their offer, reduce their negative footprint, and focus on selling the best experiences they can.
...
People are shifting their allegiance from material to experiences – from having things to doing things."
