The Internet was a game-changer. Marketing can no longer rely on advertising alone. Effective marketing should focus on a small group of viable people, identify their needs and desires, build a product that satisfies these needs, and tell a story that invigorates a fan base willing to spread the word. The best marketing speaks to the narratives your audience tells themselves about status and affiliation. To create something worth buying, choose an underlying human desire, and satisfy it. Be mindful of tensions and network effects to help your product gain traction.
