This is great reading for anyone interested in marketing and trends. If you are not familiar with Trendwatching you might want to check it out, it’s normally a good, and at times, very inspiring reading. It’s hard to sum it up, but it’s basically eight ways for companies to join Generation G (and that’s G for Generosity – not Greed). Eight ways or inputs to how companies can get a better relationship with their customers and become a stronger and better brand. In times of depression this is a welcome alternative, and not to forget an important alternative.
1. CO-DONATE
2. ECO-GENEROSITY
3. FREE LOVE
4. BRAND BUTLERS
5. PERKONOMICS
6. TRYVERTISING
7. RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS (RAK)
8. (F)RIGID NO MORE
Anyway, head over to the brief and make your own opinion: Trendwatching February brief
