What are your goals in 2013?

Its almost an end of January 2013, and I feel like I need to re look at my goals for the year. On my last year's post I had mentioned that new year is always important because it gives people a reason to look back and make new plans. Further, its also the only occasion where millions of people decide to make a change within themselves. It gives hope and new energy to start fresh. Hope in all its form is the last and the best medicine for many problems.

I personally feel that 2013 is going to be a critical one and an important one. Its the year when all the dots are going to align themselves. And I can for real, check if last few years of my life made any sense. And check if all the dots indeed do connect.

And for all, I hope to write more. Among many pending projects writing more is in one of the top priority and I should be pursuing it more. Besides this, there are few interesting things on the pipeline which is exciting. They should be pouring down in my blog soon..

Selling a Comb to a Bald Person?

Here my friend, Ashay, put it very truly to me that the marketer's most challenge is to sell a comb to a bald. First, I am not trying to justify anything here.

Then just before going to sleep, I had an discussion with my other friend, on types of marketing on issues related to customer centric marketing. Hmm. Then some how it hit me. I went back to basic on my own philosophy, sell things that is needed. So here is a small anecdote I prepared : Sale Person   : Hello sir. How are you? Do you have a time, plzzz? Bald Person : (Almost confused and in social causality) OK OK what is it? I don't have time. Sale Person    : Here sir, do you want to by a comb?  Bald Person  : Can't you

Fearful Consumer Market

Consumer market is something, I always feared. During my engineering days, I knew it was one area where I would not find myself working. I always feared the harsh competition of the market. I worried if ever, anything I made would sustain in the market. Or how people would react to it? You can say, I feared criticism and all the yap yap of group of people, who knows only how to suggest but not to act. Thus, I kept my interest into custom projects and not related to anything that a single consumer would use, rather it was something of community service. But with changing time, I knew I had to make a plunge into the ocean of consumer market and face the competition. "Be a man! Dude" That is what I would say to myself. I knew I couldn't swim, but I had to give it a try.  Journey into the consumer market is like that of 20000 Leagues Under The Sea . There are so many different kinds of creatures around to look and be fascinated. Some are small living in tiny groups. Some are
