A propósito de "
O seu café já baixou de preço?"
.
Segundo o artigo, o consumo das bicas de café está a cair e, os culpados são as cápsulas e a crise.
.
Segundo artigo, o consumo das bicas está a cair porque:
- as cápsulas levam ao consumo em casa (conveniência);
- as cápsulas e "vending machines" nas empresas levam ao consumo nas empresas (conveniência);
- as pessoas têm de poupar dinheiro
Qual a reacção dos comerciantes? Reduzir o preço! Sabem o que acontece ao lucro quando se baixa o preço? Recordar o
Evangelho do Valor!
.
E a redução do preço vai ser convidativa para quem opta pela conveniência?
.
Como é que a restauração trata o café? Não será como uma commodity?
.
Para recuperar os que optam pela conveniência por que não tentam a carta da experiência? Por que não repensam o papel do seu estabelecimento na comunidade? Se uma loja anima sessões sobre bordados, por que é que um café não pode organizar torneios de sueca? Tertúlias sobre futebol ou poesia?
"workers become actors, intentionally creating specific effects for their customers. And it's the experiences they stage that create memorable-and lasting-impressions that ultimately create transformations within individuals.
.
Experiences are the foundation for future economic growth.
.
In fact, the idea of staging experiences to leave a
memorable impression is now more relevant than ever. With an ongoing
torrent of brands attacking customers from all sides, how do you make
yours stand out?
Your brand is now a promise of an experience. Here are five approaches to leverage your brand experience:
Customization of a service can make it an experience. Anything digitized can be customized.
Gamification uses game thinking and game mechanics to enhance non-game contexts.
Subscriptions can stimulate "using" as an experience.
Admission Fees can force you to think what can be done differently.
Transformation is the result of customizing an experience.
.
You are what you charge for! At the end of the day:
- If you charge for
stuff, you are in the
commodities business
- If you charge for
tangible things, you are in the
goods business
- If you charge for
activities you execute, you are in the
service business
-
If you charge for the time customers spend with you, you are in the experiences business
- If you charge for the demonstrated outcome the customer achieves, then and only then you are in the transformations business
Try
this exercise with your leadership team. Shift your team's perspective
to experience and transformation for your customers. This frame shifting
can produce a difference in what you charge for."
