I've been in marketing for a long time and one of the big questions is "how do you know you have been successful". The classic way is to look at TAM\SOM, design wins, share of voice etc which is great but in this new world of social media, the Internet and real time news we need to make sure we have some live measurements of how we are doing. It's not just a case of putting press releases out but measuring the effect and reach of them.
It’s summertime and that means it’s getting hot outside. My roses are in full bloom and though they love the heat, I don’t much care for it. It’s the time of year I try to travel lighter than ever in an attempt to beat the heat. One of the ways I do that is by streamlining the number and size of

Seven years ago I was working in a small company where we based our entire existence (and our investors’ money) on one single fact; that 2004 would be the year when hardware accelerated graphics took off in mobile phones. Every major handset vendor would ship devices with performance & features going beyond current handheld consoles. Accelerated mobile gaming, ranging from high-end 3D action to 2D casual games, was going to be the main driving factor, and would soon be followed by animated greeting cards, 3D mascots and real-time advertisements.
A while back I was riding my motorbike in the country roads surrounding Cambridge, when my gearbox shift became detached. Luckily I managed to stop the bike by engaging the clutch and coasting it until it stopped. I thought that the ride was over and that I would need to call the insurance company to take the bike back to the garage but I remembered that when I bought the bike the sales person convinced me to go for the grand touring version because it comes with a full set of tools underneath the seat that can help fix any problem I might face. So I said “ok this is it, it’s time to find out if that really works or if that was just marketing”. To my surprise the tools were really tailored to match all the bolts, nuts, etc. that were fitted to the bike and I managed to fit back the gearbox shift easily within 15 mins following the instructions in the quick fix manual that was also underneath the seat. A few months later I had to change the rear suspension which normally I would have left to the garage to do but I was tempted to find out if the tools provided with the bike could also handle such a job, and they really did. It took all my Saturday, which didn’t make my wife really happy, but what mattered is that it worked; the tools and the manual did what the marketing promised.
I was looking for a Christmas present for my teenage daughter last week and was looking to buy her a low cost “Pay as you go” phone. Pre-pay feature phones usually cost less than £100 in the UK and offer a functional, if limited, user experience. Some of the more popular styles have been low cost touch screens that imitate the look of more expensive smartphones, but without the slick user experience (rich graphics, vast app stores, snappy response). So I found myself in Car Phone Warehouse looking at the phones from the big 6 OEMs (Apple, LG, Motorola, Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson) and was amazed to see that a £99 Nokia touch screen cell phone (
