I always thought an in-store magazine would be a great branding tool / profit center for BBY.

I still think it could.

Tweets and all that are swell, but the customer could take home a nice four color “Best Buy” lifestyle guide every month, and have it paid for by vendor (and non-vendor alike) advertising.

Great video and perspective. A couple of quick notes:

Digital is the platform but the need for social connections and entertainment will drive people to that platform. People still want to watch their “shows”, people still want to talk about the “big event”. Interactive media allows that to happen more efficiently than old media.

The fragmentation of audiences and media is a key differentiator between interactive media and “old media”. A Twitter page is great for one on one communication, but doesn’t replace the numbers that came from the network TV world. Finding the ways to achieve scale in a cost efficient manner will be a challenge.

I am so happy to see your blog. I think that it is an effective way to know American headquarters’ marketing team. And we feel that we really have a connection with the BestBuy, and truly join this giant band family by this way. But it is really pity that YOUTUBE is blocked in China, so I will try another way.

Great video…you obviously are one of the few clients / brands that understand the new reality. No doubt, Best Buy will win.

The “Dream Support” discussion was a particularly good insight into meeting your customers’ unspoken needs and hopes — unquestionably, marketers must earn trust and be transparent to build customer loyalty in today’s hypercompetitive business environment.

However, building Dream Support into a 2-minute interchange at the point of sale isn’t easy, especially during the holiday season and busy periods. Please keep “thinking out loud” because people are watching and listening.

Barry,
The quality of the production is really strong- love the style, the presentation, the delivery. but I didn’t really get the point. What are you trying to accomplish with this video? Who is your audience?

I feel that your main points were scattered and not integrated well. If you asked me to give a quick synopsis of what I just watched I would say “It was something about Dream Support but I don’t know what that means really. And then he talked about how the world is turning transparent, digital, and interactive – but I think everyone already knows that.”

Just my honest thoughts…
