Hinweis der Redaktion
- I suppose I would describe my self as a product of the digital age. One of my first jobs was working for the first Australian personal computer company in 1985 that sold the first IBM personal computer. In the late 1980’s I remember getting my first mobileTen years later I remember firing up my PC and connecting to the internet with a very slow modem and hooked into the web using one of the first search engines “Alta Vista”It was about another decade later that I registered on Facebook for the first time and connected to people I had gone through college with looking considerably older and some with a lot less hair. These are now starting to come together with enormous impact in the digital economyI also noticed the addictive nature of the social networks and I realised that here was a powerful marketing medium and I then commenced my journey onto Twitter and blogging and I never ceased to be amazed by the pace of change and the leverage that these new technologies bring to business and marketing.
- So we are living in a world that continues to evolve at an astonishing paceSmart Phones TabletsOnline storesAnd new emerging social Networks such as Google +, Pinterest and Instagram.These disrupt and how we live and workThere is a a term that is used to describe these disruptive events and inventions. They are called Black Swan Events
- Black swan events were introduced by Nassim Nicholas Taleb in his 2004 book Fooled By RandomnessTaleb regards almost all major scientific discoveries, historical events, and artistic accomplishments as "black swans"—undirected and unpredicted. He gives the rise of the Internet, the personal computer, World War I, and the September 11 attacks as examples of Black Swan Events.[2]
- What we call here a Black Swan (and capitalize it) is an event with the following three attributes. First, it is an outlier, as it lies outside the realm of regular expectations, because nothing in the past can convincingly point to its possibility. Second, it carries an extreme impact. Third, in spite of its outlier status, human nature makes us concoct explanations for its occurrence after the fact, making it explainable and predictable.I stop and summarize the triplet: rarity, extreme impact, and retrospective (though not prospective) predictability. A small number of Black Swans explains almost everything in our world, from the success of ideas and religions, to the dynamics of historical events, to elements of our own personal lives.Linkshttp://m.smh.com.au/national/this-is-mia-ruby-what-is-her-future-20120405-1wfd1.html?page=2http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_swan_theory
- The intersection of these events are defining and shaping the digital economy.And they are presenting some “challenges” for the traditional way of doing business.
- We have a fast changing world but the challenge is that humans are slow to change and our thinking and habits are still trapped in traditional habitual thinking and customs. A lot of senior managers are still acting as if we are in a industrial and traditional mass media economy,The “Big Gap” between how we read and consume our information and the way we market and advertise. Radio took 38 years to reach 50 million usersTV took 13 yearsInternet took 4 yearsiPod took 3 yearsFacebook added over 200 million users in less than one

- These digital economy black swan events are both an opportunity and a challengeSome businesses will thriveOthers will dieThe question is which will you be?
- Some sectors are under more pressure and change than othersDigital PhotographyPublishingMusic IndustryNewspapers
- This digital economy also raises some questions.
- Consuming and organising all this information is one of the challenges of a modern knowledge world in which we liveDo we book mark itFile it on our laptopDo you punch the reference into your notes function of your iPhone or iPadDo you grab a pen and jot it down on your beloved Moleskine notepad?
- It is no longer just about building a website and hoping to be found amongst all that noise and clutter, It is not as simple as that anymore!You need to start changing your thinking and paradigm about the importance of web presence and start thinking about the making it a priority to build and establish your online assets. AnalogyBusiness will spend 100,000 on a reception area that may only get 100 visitors a day while your website may have a 1,000 or more. Yet CEO’s will agonise over investing properly in their website. It is time to change your thinking about the importance of your digital assets when we are increasingly working and buying in a digital economy.
- 1. Have a Winning WebsiteThere are 2 Main Types of websites• Business website• E-Commerce websiteThey are your online digital front door that you own and control, more people visit your digital property than your reception or office • So invest appropriately• Treat it as important as your physical assets • Building an online digital asset is not a zero sum game – the sooner you start and optimise the further ahead of the competition you will be as you continue to create content that brings people back to your website and Google pushes further up the rankings • Websites should not be set and forget – it is an active environment that requires constant and persistent updating • It informs and educates while you sleep that a salesperson cannot do.
- Key Elements Great design – It’s not just how it looks! Steve Jobs when interviewed by “Wired” magazine in 1997, said that intuitive and usable design goes much deeper than how it looks, it is how it works! - you really need to to “Grok” it. To intuitively understand and to empathise with your users and your target audience2. Calls to action to capture those important leads3. Integrated to your companies CRM or email database4. Designed and developed for search engines5. Socialised – built for sharing and subscribing to Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Google+6. Create an interactive blog as part of your website – It needs to move from static to interactive allow comments and feedback. To provide a platform for engagement.7. Write and develop content that is addictive, liquid and linked8. Publish high impact images and multimedia that brings your viewers back and compels them to share with their friends and colleagues
- Create Multi-Media to reach everyone
- Create strong visual content to power the sharing of your website and social network content There are many emerging signsFacebook has just spent $1 billion acquiring Instagram.Pinterest according to Experian is now the 3rd biggest social network in the US
- Now by social I mean that you should make it easy for people to engage with your contentShare itSubscribe to itComment about itMany sites do not make it easy for people to share. Sharing buttons take two clicks don’t make it hard.
- The growth of the social networks over the last few years has been matched by the mobile internet with smart phones sales approaching nearly 500 million units in 2011. The synergy that these 2 fast tracking trends provide is changing how we work and play.So what are some statistics worth noting?• The smart phone sales were up over 63% in 2011 from 2010 (488.5 million)• 5.9 billion people now use mobile phones globally• Over 300,000 apps have been developed in the past 3 years and downloaded more than 10.9 Billion times• 77% use mobile phones for search• Social networking accounted for 50% of all page views on mobile phones in 2011• Facebook mobile users quadrupled in 2 years from 50 million to 200 million• There are 200 million mobile video playbacks from YouTube every day• There are 1.2 billion internet connected smart phones• In the US 50% of the population with a phone now has an internet connected smart phoneThe upside for mobile commerce and smart phone growth is enormous as all mobile phones will eventually become internet connected. On current numbers that means that 4.7 billion smart phones are yet to be sold and connected! Is your business ready for the mobile web?I don’t know about you but if you walk the street, ride a bus or a train have a look at what people are doing. They are checking their smart phone or tablet. People commuting to work or watching TV at home are browsing on the mobile devices. Checking their Facebook or even buying products from Ebay or an online store.Smart phones and Tablets - use elements from Trends presentation• Apps for your online store• Website that can be viewed on the major mobile platforms, Android and iPhoneSony has released an internet-linked wristwatch powered by Google-backed Android software.SmartWatch gets online by connecting wirelessly to a wearer's Android smartphone using Bluetooth technology, according to Sony.The high-tech timepiece reminiscent of one worn by classic comic strip detective Dick Tracy was priced at $US150, available online and at Sony stores.Advertisement: Story continues below"SmartWatch provides access to live content and entertainment on the go," said Sony Mobile Communications customer unit president Paul Hamnett, who billed it as the first in a series of gadgets to "expand the smartphone's reach."SmartWatch can switch from displaying time to acting as a touchscreen interface for smartphone information.Vibrations or alerts flashed on the 1.3-inch (3.3-centimeter) screen can signal incoming calls and wearers can glance at their wrists to peruse email or text messages as well as Facebook or Twitter updates by friends.Mini-applications tailored to add features to SmartWatch devices were available at the Google Play online shop, according toRead more: http://www.smh.com.au/digital-life/hometech/sony-unveils-dick-tracy-android-wristwatch-20120413-1wx8f.html#ixzz1rtLqg4GF
- Showrooming “using offline research to facilitate online buying”.This is also known as "showrooming," essentially using physical stores as showrooms for product research before buying from a more price-competitive online marketplace like Amazon. And of course smartphones, shopping apps, and cameras (read: barcode scanners) empower this.Amazon has followed this trend more than anyone, going as far as offering discounts on items scanned in stores, using its app that's made for this very purpose.That's a full 27 percent that bought somewhere else, due to the mobile information they were able to summon while in a given store. http://searchenginewatch.com/article/2156620/Customers-Are-Mobile-Now-Retail-Must-Follow
