4. Of this Beachheadwe are ScaredScared that we’d have to talk to the customer. Scared that we can no longer commit a budget to the problem for the agency to take away.

5. Your Agency is Your ENEMY if…They Talk about Reach.They want you to keep it MASS Your role is simply signing the cheque. They want you to continue throwing a budget at the creative problem They build campaigns rather than permission assetsTV and Advertising still works – look at the data! They talk about facebook and mobile but the storytelling is still about you, your brand, your logo, your website And not helping the customer tell theirs Change BeachHeads by Graham D Brown of WhatYouthThink.com 5
6. Defining Beachheads (from the mobileYouth report) Commit 100% of your marketing to your Beachhead – the 10% of your market already sold on your ideas and product. Supply them with the tools – the Social Currency found in your Permission Asset and empower them to generate Earned Media by enabling your marketing narrative to be about them rather than about your brand. Product Model requires reach; 100% of marketing is committed to 100% of the market. Marketers are fearful of strategies that focus on segments because under the Product Model this would return lower yields. Selling to unconverted youth in the Service Model Decade is expensive; the cost of attention and churn require marketing to focus on tightly defined segments.
