Macro economia vs micro economia?
Será impressão minha ou o ponto de vista da micro economia é mais optimista e mais realista?
.
Aqui, referimos que 60% da produção portuguesa de mobiliário é dirigida para os mercados externos. Gente de carne e osso, agarrou a oportunidade de vender valor em vez de preço, identificou clientes-alvo (também eles de carne e osso, não abstracções estatísticas), apostou na evolução na cadeia de valor, desenvolveu novos produtos, abriu os olhos para o marketing e... voilá!
Será que quando um outsider olha para um sector industrial, tem tendência a colocar o preço acima de tudo e vê tudo por esse prisma?
Lembrei-me deste artigo na revista Time : "Twilight In Italy" publicado em Dezembro de 2005, e assinado por Peter Gumbel.
"Many of the thousands of small and medium-size companies that once gave the Italian economy its flexibility and dynamism are poorly equipped to deal with the challenges of a fast-changing world. Most don't have the scale, the funding or the commercial know-how to become global players. What they produce is beautiful, but it's neither particularly sophisticated nor difficult to replicate." Não creio que o problema seja a escala, ou sobretudo a escala. Por vezes fico a pensar se o sucesso chinês não será o canto do cisne, o estertor de um modelo de negócio baseado na produção em massa. Long tail, long tail...
"The Manzano entrepreneurs know they can't compete on price. But if they can find a way to carve out an upmarket niche for themselves--as the most successful chairmakers are doing--there's every reason to believe that Europeans and Chinese can coexist and flourish, building on their respective strengths."
"no one has much experience selling to customers other than the big German distributors that once snapped up as much as 70% of the district's output. ... "If I say three companies have true marketing departments, I'm exaggerating.""
Um dos empresários bem sucedidos optou por "And he has put a relentless focus on making his own branded products rather than manufacturing for other companies. In 1997, 35% of the firm's output was of no-name furniture; today it's 1.5%."
"The first thing we need to do in this global world is to have an identity. If we don't, we'll disappear,"
A despropósito, onde é que eu já vi isto "When Italian manufacturers ran into competitive problems in the past, there used to be an easy fix: currency devaluation, which made Italian exports cheaper relative to those of other countries. But that solution is no longer available, because Italy swapped the lira for the euro, which has risen against most other currencies, including the dollar."
