Gilmore, who have long described product innovation in consumer markets as a multi-staged “progression of economic value” from commodities to goods to services to experiences to personal transformations, where a better you becomes the product.

When we buy experiences, those purchase make us happier than when we buy things,” says Pine, citing a 2014 Boston Consulting Group report which reveals that of the $1.8 trillion spent on “luxuries” in 2013, nearly $1 trillion, or 55 percent, was spent on luxury experiences. “Some large part of that trillion is luxury transformations: people looking to recharge, revitalise or to improve well-being in some way,” he continues.[Moi ici: E pensar na formação como fazendo parte desta economia das transformações?]

Genuine transformations — though they may well drive sales of associated product — must come with a price tag of their own. “What turns something into an experience is when you charge for time,” Pine says. "An admission fee also sends a signal that this is an experience worth having.”"
