At 3:00 AM Japan time today, a new Mac product was announced in the US.
It was amazing to be able to keep track of the situation in real time via twitter, etc. I really felt that the time difference has disappeared.
I really felt that the time difference has disappeared.
There are many opinions about the iPad product itself, but what I find amazing is the company's
I am impressed by the company's strategy.
No other company has ever created so much anticipation and blasted out a release.
There are almost no leaks of information. Even within the company, leakers of information are punished thoroughly and severely.
Until recently, the trend in personal computers was netbooks.
A new category was established.
Lighter than notebooks, they are easy to carry around. And they are by far the cheapest.
But they are inferior in terms of performance.
The companies that did not follow this trend were Panasonic and Macintosh.
I do not know what will happen to netbooks in the future, but companies that have a clear vision of their own growth strategy will not follow the boom.
Let's Notebook is selling well in Japan. It does not break. It is sturdy. But it is a bit expensive.
It claims to be "made in Japan.
They are not going with the flow because they understand the needs of their customers for their own products.
It is a strategy that cannot be implemented without a clear understanding of what customers are looking for in one's products.
It's the same with macs. They have no interest in netbooks. What their customers want most from them
Satisfaction of ownership, performance, and design.
I feel that they are very particular about the products they launch one after another.
Jobs can do what they do because their employees love their products.
I heard that a company in Niigata, Japan is responsible for the polished aluminum on the back of the ipod.
They create products over and over again until they are satisfied with every detail.
This company's strategy is always value-added creation.
The company's strategy has always been to create value-added products. The company does not have products that are just "easy," right?
Is there a commitment to the company's products and services?
What is it that customers want to buy, use, eat, or receive services from your company?
What is it that arouses their interest?
It is important.
If not, you will just be swept away.
In the restaurant industry,
At one time, McDonald's led the way with its low-priced one-cost hamburger.
Other companies followed suit, and what happened? It is still fresh in our memories.
The streets are flooded with uniform izakaya (Japanese style pubs) and low-priced izakaya (Japanese style pubs).
300 yen, 270 yen, and so on.
What are the customers' needs? Is there any joy there?
Are the employees happy? What about pride?
I think we will see results in less than a year.
There are things you can't see or understand when you are inside.
You have to have a bird's eye view.
How about in your industry?
I will think about it.
