BEYOND THE UNIQUE SELLING POINTS


Understanding why transport union of Ibadan religiously subscribe to "micra" while Ilorin's transport union heavily gravitate towards "Mazda 323" can help in understanding how masses make their decisions in consumption, politics and values.

A good marketer will identify this preference and tailor supply to such need. While an exceptional marketer will de-mystify the mystery. Just like the anecdote of two men sent to sell a product of sandal in a town. When they got there, they discovered to their dismay that the people walked bare-footed. Upon return to their companies, the first said he needed to find another town as the town was dead to the product. The second said that the town was full of business opportunities that all he needed was time to convince them.

An exceptional marketer will do an analysis through interrogation and engagement at Ibadan to establish reasons for the religious attachment to Micra and do the same at Ilorin to get reasons for their heavy use of Mazda 323 open-and-close headlight. After establishing such facts, he or she is already armed with sell-able points for each type of car and can sell as they so please.

Akintola Sterlyn-Rasheed in response expatiated further ‎"To buttress your last assertion, a good marketer should be an individual who could sell sand at the beach, no matter what type of Vehicle you chose to use as a taxi, your ambience and certain strategies would make you stand out in a group of many. Your income and expenditure target would determine the type of vehicle to use, putting cost of procurement, cost of maintenance as well as running cost into consideration.Business is sweet only if you know how to play the game."‎

Ba'mi Kehinde Ayoola J P  then nomenclated it as USP "Unique Selling Points" that which Akintola has detailed. Blackberry has its USP (bbm) but yet the company falters. The quest is simple: you understand your market. Ours is a fast generation, and we become wary of monotonous value. The excitement lies in a constant change and upgrade.




Blackberry falters and Android OS soars. While USP is quite important, a marketer should be conscious of potential entrants in a market that's richly yielding. Android OS onboards those that could have become potential competitors: design an app and get returns. Bring your business and I give you my patent.

Like a gas dealer enters a village full of kerosene users, instead of focusing solely on retail-end. Why not onboard the kerosene suppliers? Give 'em your patent, a fair share of your profit and your detractors would be your facilitators.

Brentford Beat Blundering Gunner Two Goal To Nil

  The start of EPL came with Arteta still unable to  fumble out of his not-too-convincing career in Arsenal. Brentford came roaring from relegation to beat Arsenal who dream of getting to top four this season. But like their pre-season, a miscarriage of dreams, they fell a goal behind to Brentford through Canos super strike. From that moment forward, Brentford became the Bully, created more chances and Arsenal passed sideways as if the goal post was at the corner flag. Anyways, White white-out on the field, the presence of 50 million bargain wasn't felt. Mari was too casual for a defender. Tierney will soon burn out. Chambers tried his chambers-efforts. Upfront Balogun was starved of direct passes. Pepe will never pepper any defender except when he is in luck. The dude cannot be consistent except he sees a man-manager. Smith is a ball-smith but combined with Xhaka sideways and momentary slip & sleep off, Smith Rowe just rowing to a fruitless breeze. Martinelli needs to man...

Liverpool Laundered Chelsea 2-0

  Lampard's League of Assassins became the victim and were turned into whiff when they met King Klopp's Coven of Wizards. Mane mane-handled them, scoring a brace. Klopp's magic wand turned Timo Werner to Timo Waster. Havertz became Harvard without a degree. Kante could not count any goal. Kepa also was no keeper. Chelsea became ChelShit: as all turned messy.  The game actually started as if Chelsea would be in control for a longer time. Werner squandered two good chances, though his movements were always threatening.  But the real story unveiled after 40+ minutes into the game. Mane got Christensen to foul him. Red card for CB.  The game became only Liverpool's. Magic Mane later got the first goal and also the second which was gifted by Kepa unkempt pass. Jorginho kept jogging but not creating. Zouma tried his best and Tomori as sub was not timorous but the scoreline wasnt palatable.  Lampard has a lot to fix. But he has another league o...

No "Karin kese": A Discussion of Ephemerality of Life in King Saheed Osupa's Special Release 1-2

Let us do a quick assessment of the message of ephemerality and other sundry musings in Saheed Osupa's "Fuji-losophical" Album "Special Request 1-2". This, being an apolitical post, would not pay much attention to the litany of political parables that are embedded in the album. But it focuses on the sermon that every human should harken to; that our existence is constrained by time that wears it out and an end that snuffs it out. If you understand Yoruba, the message is more impactful in the language. Translations are often loose being that some of the connotative meanings would be lost alongside some elements of linguistic philosophy that King Saheed Osupa is known for. Albeit we shall attempt to translate as much as we can. 1. Nothing Lasts Forever. In one of the verses and one of the most notorious choruses he sings:  Je je je, kaarin kaase Pa pa pa, bobaya yoo di pafee.  (Little by little, a forevers soon hastens into naught) This is a warning gong for every...
