THE NEO-HIPPIE

Is there more at stake than just some three-huggers?
Yes. It’s about hippies acting in an open market space. They don’t bother that much yet.
Neo-hippies get what they need from each other. They are autonomous but connected. They
are tech-savvy and deploy tech in their advantage. Everything they do has a purpose.

IDEALISTS THAT SAVE TIME & MONEY AT THE SAME TIME?

… I SUGGEST TO JOIN & FACILITATE THE MOVEMENT …

MAKE LOVE
NOT WAR!
BACK-2-BASICS MARKETING
People are no longer passive consumers. They are empowered. They get what they
need from each other. They are becoming an industry: empowered by tech (social,
mobile, IoT) and self-organizing. If you want to be successful as an organization, you
need to align with this “revival of the hippie” trend.
B2B MARKETING
B2B STANDS FOR BACK-TO-BASICS, BECAUSE ANYWAY B2B AND
B2C ARE IRRELEVANT TERMS. IT’S ALL ABOUT PEER TO PEER,
PEOPLE TO PEOPLE, HUMAN TO HUMAN, HIPPIE TO HIPPIE.
BACK 2 BASICS MARKETING IS YOUR ANSWER.
CORPORATE HIPPIES
Hippies, hate them or love them, but they are great people. They’ll always do good for
their environments (people, planet, …). In short: they are pretty much still thinking and
acting like cave men. In order to be a hippie, be a cave men. With all respect!
CORPORATE HIPPIE MARKETING
Back-to-Basics on all 4 traditional P’s
BACK-2-BASICS MARKETING
B2B MARKETING
• 

Product:

• 

•  CRAPPY PRODUCTS DON’T SURVIVE
•  CO-CREATED, CO-FINANCED, COMMUNITY SELLING
•  PRODUCTS AS A SERVICE (rent, subscribe, trade for other service, …)
•  RE-USABLE (maybe for a different purpose)
•  OPEN SOURCE, OPEN DATA PRODUCTS
•  TRUSTED, VALUABLE & WITH PURPOSE
•  PRODUCT USER EXPERIENCE IS KEY
Place:
• 

TECHNOLOGY ENABLES TO SHARE LOCAL & GLOBAL
• 

LOCAL IS GLOBAL & GLOBAL IS LOCAL

• 

Price:

• 

•  COMMUNITY GIFT (= freemium)
•  USE, DON’T BUY (cfr.: product as a service)
Promotion:
• 

COMMUNICATION = CAVEMEN SPEAK.
• 
• 
• 

Community-driven at all stages. Hard selling sucks.
Knowing your audience (cfr.: big data insights) & it’s context to tell stories
Service is key! Generate ambassadors.
B2B COMMUNICATION
BACK-2-BASICS COMMUNICATION IS ALL ABOUT COMMUNITY,
CONTENT & STORIES AT EVERY STAGE IN THE CUSTOMER
JOURNEY.
LET’S SEE HOW CAVEMEN SPOKE. AND SPEAK.
THAT’S IT FOLKS. JOIN THE MOVEMENT.
BE GOOD. STAY TUNED FOR PART 3.
