The innovation supply chain
Abstract
Outlines the problems involved when marketing to consumers in mature markets. Emphasises the need to build a direct knowledge of their consumers and to differentiate the service, product and brand from those of competitors. Asserts that small, distinct service experiences will combine to create a strong overriding impression of quality and value, and this mechanism is the foundation of achieving a strong brand. However, to be achieved in practice, these service targets need to be understood and communicated clearly up and down the innovation supply chain. This involves full co‐operation between marketers, designers, manufacturers and distributors.
