Daniel Pink, whose book A Whole New Mind describes the transition we're making from the Information Age to the Conceptual Age. He explains why we need to develop our right, creative brains now more than ever, with left brain thinking more and more replaceable (see video below) and the innovation imperative of our time demanding more skills of creativity.
Pink asserts six skills, or senses, that he sees as key to the new age, which, if more developed, may indeed help us keep our heads above water as a new United States of Creativity that these time demand:
1. Design: Creating something beautiful and emotionally engaging
2. Story: Creating compelling narrative, not just facts and info
3. Symphony: Connecting pieces, synthesis not just analysis
4. Empathy: Understanding others, developing emotional intelligence
5. Play: Going beyond seriousness to joyfulness and humor
6. Meaning: Pursuing purpose, passion and spirituality
10 Creative Marketing Tactics for Entrepreneurs by Michael Leahey
Marketing, at its essence, is a simple thing - a company creates unique value by designing products and services that meet the needs of customers in a growing market. And while larger companies can afford a full-front media blitz, involving television, print, and internet advertising campaigns, most entrepreneurs will opt for a stealthier approach.
Here is the Top 10 Ninja Marketing Tips:
1. Offer a Movement or a Cause. We are an innovation-based economy. The best idea wins and spreads – like a virus. The people who will most readily engage with your idea make up your tribe.
2. Tell Stories. People buy from people. We have been telling stories since the dawn of time, and stories are the most effective way to emotionally engage your audience.
3. Channel Your Creative Intelligence. In an attention-span limited world, images, cartoons, and flowcharts flow past the neocortex and appeal to people on an emotional level.
4. Own a (Key) Word. What word(s) are you known for? Can you dominate one? Own a defensible position in a profitable niche.
5. Be Congruent. Does your philosophy match your image? Your products/ services? Your brand? Your logo? Your website and marketing materials?
6. Define your Unique Value. People love a list… give it to them. What is your area of Profitable Passion? Why are you qualified to be the thought leader for your Tribe?
7. Make a Dream Client List. If you could have any client in the world, what company/ person would it be? Where are they? What are they like? How do they think?
8. Differentiate Thyself! It’s not enough to be good anymore – your services must be unique, and matched to the needs of your Dream Client.
9. Be Lean. The “Lean Startup” concept: can you roll out an MVP service to engage the early adapters of your tribe?
10. Show Social Proof. It’s a virtuous cycle: testimonials, Facebook Fans, and the legendary word-of-mouth. Video testimonials are the best – and rank highest on Google.
