Coca Cola y L Oreal se unieron en la búsqueda de una gaseosa destinada al cuidado de la piel. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Este nuevo acuerdo marca la cuenta regresiva para la aparición de Lumaé, una bebida basada en una infusión de té, cuyo target serán mujeres de más de 25 años, que quieran proteger su piel de los ataques externos causados por maquillaje, smog y otros. Resulta interesante que, para darle credibilidad, los puntos de venta no serán las góndolas de bebidas, sino las de cosméticos. El lanzamiento se inscribe claramente en la tendencia de unir salud y comida, en un revival del viejo dicho “dime lo que comes, te diré quién eres”. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.glamout.com/nota.asp?Idnota=2707"&gt;http://www.glamout.com/nota.asp?Idnota=2707&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/Looking4More" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"&gt;&lt;img alt="" style="vertical-align:middle;border:0" src="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/images/pub/feed-icon32x32.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/Looking4More" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"&gt;Subscribe in a reader&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://natigarcias.blogspot.com/2007/04/los-cuidados-de-l-oreal-vienen-en.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Natalia Garcias)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" height="72" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJ2eGSBkpcA5SiyaaXadCpxBkwKB1kFbtqtuN8FIv4PXoNPs1IzH9BGCmkiHXaJ_fd_B1xSrJMP9uD1AA2e9muj7Z5pozEyV0fq1_PA1-Bfr1OyvTU-bHimUDnaZKnZ2EbaNA5KBiDBdw/s72-c/foto_nota_principal_2707.jpg" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699405280778293351.post-5164439708423681882</guid><pubDate>Wed, 11 Apr 2007 18:41:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-12-08T13:03:39.872-08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">participation</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">share</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">VIRAL MARKETING</category><title>REXONA MOMENTOS INTENSOS</title><description>&lt;a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZGsnQCUP4OUgTJQ_A8qdmZ3NPyYHa-wL2tObC3j7f_tfScZC-7X-8W6zwOQawi3QbHm17CmzTrWdccHsPmawAy0rBJh58SdFZfGS9rgkYonBeggvIPdcJxjAoAraykszDZXyN-wDP18I/s1600-h/rexona.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left;

Imagine if an agency had come up with that idea?&lt;br /&gt;So on that note, here is the full list as conceived by Social Technologies. It’s worth chewing on.&lt;br /&gt;User creativityConsumers increasingly want to create, augment, or influence design and content, and share these creations with their peers. Supporting user creativity will be increasingly important to consumer technology, and will become more mainstream in coming decades.&lt;br /&gt;PersonalizationConsumers will increasingly look for products and services that align with their specific personal needs and preferences—whether in the aesthetics of a product or in its functional design. More goods will be created to match individuals’ unique specifications.&lt;br /&gt;SimplicitySimplicity will have growing value for consumers confronted with information overload, time stress, and technological complexity. Simplicity’s influence is already evident in new, stripped-down devices that offer just a few functions, as well as in minimalist interfaces that conceal breathtaking complexity. The common denominator of all these efforts is that they are human-centered—and thus easy to learn and integrate into busy lives.&lt;br /&gt;AssistanceAs consumers are bombarded with more tasks, choices, and information, and as demographic changes such as aging reshape consumer markets, they are looking to assistive technologies for help. Consumers will seek to bolster and extend their natural abilities—with technologies ranging from pharmaceuticals that enhance mental performance to robot aides for the elderly.&lt;br /&gt;AppropriatenessProducts and services will need to embrace the principle of appropriateness to ensure that they are suitably designed for users with varying physical needs, resources, cultural characteristics, literacy levels, etc. Appropriateness will aid in the spread of technology products and services to new markets and to diverse user segments.&lt;br /&gt;ConvenienceAlready well-established in mature markets, demand for convenience will rise as a technology value for consumers all over the world. Consumers will look for technological products and services that give them what they want and need on demand and that reduce effort and relieve time pressure.&lt;br /&gt;ConnectednessConnectedness gives consumers what they want, when they want it, and will grow exponentially with the expanding global information infrastructure. Consumers will look for products and services that seamlessly integrate with this global network.&lt;br /&gt;EfficiencyEfficiency is the ratio of output to input—or, put simply, the ability to do more with less. It will become more important to technology as consumers search for products and services that let them manage emerging resource uncertainties, rising costs, and other pressures.&lt;br /&gt;IntelligenceIntelligence will be enabled by innovations that increasingly shift information and decision-making burdens from the user to the device or service. The demand for greater intelligence will come in response to factors including complexity, aging, and the desire for personalized experiences.&lt;br /&gt;ProtectionProtection will be sought by consumers in a world that feels increasingly insecure. Consumers will look for technology-enabled products and services that strengthen their sense of personal security and protect their families, homes, wealth, and privacy.&lt;br /&gt;HealthConsumers will look to technological products and services to maintain and, increasingly, improve their health and wellness. The search for health-enabling solutions will extend beyond traditional health and medical products and services to include more of the things consumers use in their everyday lives, whether at home, work, or play.&lt;br /&gt;SustainabilityConsumers will increasingly look for products and services that embrace sustainability—reducing the “human footprint” on the environment while maintaining quality of life.

User creativityConsumers increasingly want to create, augment, or influence design and content, and share these creations with their peers. Supporting user creativity will be increasingly important to consumer technology, and will become more mainstream in coming decades. PersonalizationConsumers will increasingly look for products and services that align with their specific personal needs and preferences—whether in the aesthetics of a product or in its functional design. More goods will be created to match individuals’ unique specifications. SimplicitySimplicity will have growing value for consumers confronted with information overload, time stress, and technological complexity. Simplicity’s influence is already evident in new, stripped-down devices that offer just a few functions, as well as in minimalist interfaces that conceal breathtaking complexity. The common denominator of all these efforts is that they are human-centered—and thus easy to learn and integrate into busy lives. AssistanceAs consumers are bombarded with more tasks, choices, and information, and as demographic changes such as aging reshape consumer markets, they are looking to assistive technologies for help. Consumers will seek to bolster and extend their natural abilities—with technologies ranging from pharmaceuticals that enhance mental performance to robot aides for the elderly. AppropriatenessProducts and services will need to embrace the principle of appropriateness to ensure that they are suitably designed for users with varying physical needs, resources, cultural characteristics, literacy levels, etc. Appropriateness will aid in the spread of technology products and services to new markets and to diverse user segments. ConvenienceAlready well-established in mature markets, demand for convenience will rise as a technology value for consumers all over the world. Consumers will look for technological products and services that give them what they want and need on demand and that reduce effort and relieve time pressure. ConnectednessConnectedness gives consumers what they want, when they want it, and will grow exponentially with the expanding global information infrastructure. Consumers will look for products and services that seamlessly integrate with this global network. EfficiencyEfficiency is the ratio of output to input—or, put simply, the ability to do more with less. It will become more important to technology as consumers search for products and services that let them manage emerging resource uncertainties, rising costs, and other pressures. IntelligenceIntelligence will be enabled by innovations that increasingly shift information and decision-making burdens from the user to the device or service. The demand for greater intelligence will come in response to factors including complexity, aging, and the desire for personalized experiences. ProtectionProtection will be sought by consumers in a world that feels increasingly insecure. Consumers will look for technology-enabled products and services that strengthen their sense of personal security and protect their families, homes, wealth, and privacy. HealthConsumers will look to technological products and services to maintain and, increasingly, improve their health and wellness. The search for health-enabling solutions will extend beyond traditional health and medical products and services to include more of the things consumers use in their everyday lives, whether at home, work, or play. SustainabilityConsumers will increasingly look for products and services that embrace sustainability—reducing the “human footprint” on the environment while maintaining quality of life. A variety of technologies offer ways to minimize resource use, waste, and pollution while improving human welfare. &amp;nbsp;Subscribe in a reader</itunes:summary><itunes:keywords>INTERACTIVE, MARKETING, VIRAL MARKETING, WEB2.0, YOUTUBE</itunes:keywords></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699405280778293351.post-6778937807446611260</guid><pubDate>Fri, 23 Mar 2007 15:43:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-12-08T13:03:41.104-08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">VIRAL MARKETING</category><title>The power of viral marketing (and 40% off wine!)</title><description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;FROM: &lt;a href="http://wheresthesausage.typepad.com/my_weblog/2007/03/the_power_of_vi.html"&gt;Http://wheresthesausage.typepad.com/my_weblog/2007/03/the_power_of_vi.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.gapingvoid.com/Moveable_Type/archives/003805.html"&gt;Hugh over at Gaping Void &lt;/a&gt;(one of the worlds most-read bloggers) is launching the second &lt;a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLdwErCMJqT9sS5k-ti7H1Jw4Y0_5XYOnH9w9uUNpW7rhVyVSBwXIxvIa6uAyuqpn7GNQF-dazHgFOGTp7D2gUrEQm7H7hh_2eNNU797pq8p1mUgYFhxENGNI6Ar5iAjI5BSzXJeTb2o0/s1600-h/STORMHOEK1.png"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5045146479852901058" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLdwErCMJqT9sS5k-ti7H1Jw4Y0_5XYOnH9w9uUNpW7rhVyVSBwXIxvIa6uAyuqpn7GNQF-dazHgFOGTp7D2gUrEQm7H7hh_2eNNU797pq8p1mUgYFhxENGNI6Ar5iAjI5BSzXJeTb2o0/s200/STORMHOEK1.png" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Thresher online viral coupon.

It boosted Thresher's sales by £15million and making it &lt;a href="http://www.gapingvoid.com/Moveable_Type/archives/003483.html"&gt;onto the TV news&lt;/a&gt; as an example of viral marketing, raising the profile of both Thresher and Stormhoek.

pero para evitar dependencia de ellos invirtieron en desarrollos diferentes para crear su propio tráfico sin “quemar” la marca.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a id="more-2694"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Por ejemplo cuando vieron que los “clasificados del futuro” estaban en modelos como eBay o Craigslist lanzaron un &lt;a href="http://www.finn.no/"&gt;dominio externo&lt;/a&gt; que maneja esa “unidad” en internet lo que le permite “crear” comunidad y tráfico sin depender de su marca principal (&lt;a href="http://www.vg.no/"&gt;VG&lt;/a&gt; y &lt;a href="http://e24.no/"&gt;E24&lt;/a&gt;) algo que los medios en español nunca terminaron de aceptar (un ejemplo: miren como llegó 6 años tarde &lt;a href="http://www.clarin.com/"&gt;Clarin&lt;/a&gt;

Call it group power, call it CROWD CLOUT:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CROWD CLOUT: “Online grouping of citizens/consumers for a specific cause, be it political, civic or commercial, aimed at everything from bringing down politicians to forcing suppliers to fork over discounts.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, even though politically and civically minded CROWD CLOUT concepts like &lt;a href="http://moveon.org/" target="_blank"&gt;MoveOn.org&lt;/a&gt; and Hummer-hating &lt;a href="http://fuh2.com/" target="_blank"&gt;FUH2.com&lt;/a&gt; are fascinating, we'll focus exclusively on the most commercial aspects of this trend. One word: co-buying.&lt;br /&gt;If that feels like a blast from the past, extensively discussed and unsuccessfully tried back in 1996, you’re right. It’s about &lt;strong&gt;consumers’ purchasing intentions&lt;/strong&gt;, and (sometimes) the grouping of those intentions. Semi-dormant &lt;a href="http://www.letsbuyit.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Letsbuyit.com&lt;/a&gt; and no-longer-amongst-us Mercata.com come to mind.&lt;br /&gt;Check this whole new trend on &lt;a href="http://www.trendwatching.com/briefing/"&gt;http://www.trendwatching.com/briefing/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/Looking4More" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"&gt;&lt;img alt="" style="vertical-align:middle;border:0" src="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/images/pub/feed-icon32x32.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/Looking4More" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"&gt;Subscribe in a reader&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://natigarcias.blogspot.com/2007/03/fuh2-power-of-groups.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Natalia Garcias)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" height="72" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8Ono2Ee94nOZdiDNWmywzR2G_c53eX1lIygUJfJV6sc5qiyA0IgJ2LKu03Xm4KEdQJqbsZbVCo3dj4e8_O5EYynulMpFZDLEqzM2mFbXreD7amheSVJiZCqoys0l20K2QD6jV8sjEzfs/s72-c/CROW+CLUTS.jpg" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699405280778293351.post-1912092598146910120</guid><pubDate>Wed, 21 Mar 2007 21:11:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2007-03-21T14:11:14.706-07:00</atom:updated><title>MENTOS+COCA</title><description>&lt;div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;object height='350' width='425'&gt;&lt;param value='http://youtube.com/v/eTSUCV7M1yc' name='movie'&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed height='350' width='425' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://youtube.com/v/eTSUCV7M1yc'&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/Looking4More" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"&gt;&lt;img alt="" style="vertical-align:middle;border:0" src="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/images/pub/feed-icon32x32.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/Looking4More" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"&gt;Subscribe in a reader&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://natigarcias.blogspot.com/2007/03/mentoscoca_21.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Natalia Garcias)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699405280778293351.post-991891437846824537</guid><pubDate>Tue, 20 Mar 2007 19:04:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-12-08T13:03:41.835-08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">MARKETING</category><title>ADIDAS Y EL RESTO</title><description>&lt;a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhex7dnQW_dBW4npMERA_p_M_I4MESLX-IK531KlFhvwI3xgV86G8TR67Sj9rGaakFaZ3tkn980tWIfdBRlZMUTVzdsOF2wWW9KvPgntaRSvKM4UeuEk6hRMM2wQoHmaDw8yY3quHuZj0Y/s1600-h/adidas_competition1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5044084948620923474" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhex7dnQW_dBW4npMERA_p_M_I4MESLX-IK531KlFhvwI3xgV86G8TR67Sj9rGaakFaZ3tkn980tWIfdBRlZMUTVzdsOF2wWW9KvPgntaRSvKM4UeuEk6hRMM2wQoHmaDw8yY3quHuZj0Y/s320/adidas_competition1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Esta campaña gráfica de Adidas intenta posicionarse frente a Nike, Puma y Reebok bajo el lema “Amamos la competencia”.
