Monetary gifts have recently flooded into Florida State University for the express purpose of increasing the school's productivity and opportunities. People are noticing and supporting the exceptional students with exceptional donations to match.
Based on that definition of yourself, how do you exhibit those characteristics? Through the experiences you choose to have, through your education, through your familial relationships, through the products you buy?
Classic consumer behavior theory seeks to understand the needs of consumers - that is, what they need, why they need it, how they perceive that need and what they are willing to do to fulfill that need. Not surprisingly, consumer self-identity plays a huge role in this process.
The world could see a disappointing drop in innovation and advancement if this trend continues. The NMSI strives to change that by providing resources to students at FSU.
Interestingly though, people are not constrained by having objects (tangible or intangible) as reflections of themselves. Instead, they embrace possessions as extensions of themselves and use those objects to send messages to others.
After a rough first half, where the lead passed off between teams and neither could get more than 7 points ahead at a time, FGCU kicked it into high gear and decided to get to work. Coming in with a 2 point lead, they fought hard. They gathered momentum and didn't look back. They never lost the lead after that point and ended the game with a fantastic 78-68 win.
The hospital complimented the excellent program and gave the money in support of creating the next generation of much-needed medical personnel. They wanted to make an investment in a school already giving direct help to their needs.
In making this purchase, would the alumnus deliberate very much over the price of the object and compare it to competing university clothing? No - University of Miami clothing helps to represent an integral component of who the alumnus is.
Granted, this is a niche market that cannot be entered into easily, but the core marketing principles imbedded in this example are the same for any market. Companies must find a way to not only fulfill a customer's need but also help their product become a part of the consumer's self-identity, and an increasingly important part of that strategy is online marketing.
It's a win-win situation for all. Anyone that presents monetary gifts to this and other universities is investing in a better future.
So given that the product you are selling is a good one, what are some online marketing strategies that you can employ to help your consumers include your product as a possession that exhibits their self-identity? Two potential strategizes are to allow for personalization and leverage social media.
The media and fans were raving for FGCU by this point. They were going to the sweet 16 in their first Division I appearance ever. Some teams build for decades before they finally make it to this point, and yet here they were. Although they could not pull out a win against in-state rival Florida, they did the seemingly impossible.
An increase in an attention often means an increase in support, whether it come in the form of monetary gifts or the purchasing of Florida State apparel. One allows the university to expand its resources, the other markets the school to the public even more.
These two strategies are good starting point for any company, but with effort you can create other strategies that will be beneficial for your particular product. Just keep in mind the basic idea -consumers want their possessions to be reflections of themselves and so the company's job is to fulfill that need.
