Consumers want a better world, not just better widgets.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I guess the reality is, everybody today has so many gadgets.
The world is now awash in data and we can see consumers in a lot clearer ways.
Consumers no longer want only a great product - they want to buy products from companies that align with their own character and values.
Consumers desiring a better world have already achieved some successes in this regard, helping to transform several industries from the ground up.
What is so brilliant about the gadgets is their simplicity.
Just as producers often give consumers things they want but didn't think to ask for, consumers sometimes come up with surprising uses for new inventions. When a new product appears, it can uncover dissatisfactions and desires no one knew were there.
Taken as a whole, consumer technologies have made startling advances, but they still are not as easy to use as they should be.
More than trends, consumers need functionality. Everything needs an element of fashion, but that's more like a spice.
Traditional businesses can say, 'We're going to sell widgets to people, and it will make X amount of profit.' But new business models are hard.
My worldview says that competition is the consumer's best friend.
