You’re Boring..

6 06 2009

“Sorry, someone had to say it.

Your products are predictable. Your insights are recycled. You don’t bring surprise with you when you enter a room.

That’s why people are ignoring you.

Which used to be fine, because you could just buy attention for your brand or your company or your sales efforts. But that half-price sale on attention is now over.

The only path left is to lean out of the edge and become interesting, noteworthy and yes, remarkable.”

- Seth Godin

iamwavesi am absolutely loving I AM WAVES

Here’s a little about Yannick, the mastermind behind it all,

“I live in the beautiful city of Cape Town, South Africa. Im different, so this could be new to you. The music is regurgitated from the heart. I try to step away from what is classified as normal and try to create a new “normal” know what i mean.”

Influences: The Secret Handshake -  N.E.R.D – Kanye West, SantoGold, M.I.A

He is known to only wear the raddest shoes. I’ve heard oh so many stories.. And collaboration with Spoek from ‘Sweat X is coming in the not to distant future, watch out.

Listen the music here. I have ‘The City Is Ours Tonight’ on constant repeat.

Interesting Little From-The-Couch Episode..

Another great From-The-Couch episode by @Obox, @MarcPerel & @NatPerel - watch the video “1,000 Clients or 1,000,000 Fans” here!

..I joined the debate,

“The saddest thing of them all, is that these are all really creative and intelligent people who came up with Facebook, Twitter, Google etc. yet the only way they can think of to monetize their “business” is by selling advertising space. So the business model has now just become, find a way to get a billion eyeballs onto your site and then your revenue stream is from GoogleAdsense. It is so wack.

They should have instead focused their energies on coming up with creative and new ways to build their actual business, as something that consumers actually want and need and would be willing to pay a premium for. I think the problem comes in with the fact that they let you have it for free – forever, rather than like Flickr who cleverly let you use the vanilla model for free, which gets you hooked and loving it, and then if you are a professional photographer, or want to use all the sprinkles – bells and whistles you pay a premium annually, they have also come up with clever ideas on how to sell and package what they are already doing, and in terms of earning revenue off their actual business they must be kicking Google, Facebook ass – as all they sit thinking about it how to get more hits to sell more advertising space.

Something like Facebook Events should never ever have been free! If you are having a get together/birthday party etc of less than lets say 50 guests, cool they should have let you been able to ‘organize’ and invite friends to lets say 5 events a year. However if its a huge party/show, they should have charge the organizes $10 an event, they could have made a fortune, because event organizers would have been willing to pay for that.. ah I could go on for days..

Eyeballs and advertising your own business are extremely important, but selling prime space on your website as your only revenue stream is just extremely silly and oh so web1.0″

..and so should you, add your 2 cents now!
