info_outlineWhat drives Value?
Hi, Everyone. Carl Gould, here is your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of investment per day for a lifetime of results.
There was a study done in 1974 by the Sloan School of Business, and they said, “What drives value in a business? And 95% of what drove value 40 and 50 years ago was the TANGIBLES of the business, its physical assets. Well, let's fast forward to today. A follow-up of those 10,000 companies and the second part of the study showed that 72% of what drives value in business is its INTANGIBLES. Its intellectual property, it's brand equity, its brand promise. Toms shoes- is it the shoes? Or is it the fact that that company goes out, and for every pair of shoes you buy, they buy a second pair and give it to an underprivileged child somewhere else in the world? Which one do you think it is? So stop falling in love with your product or service. Yes, you want your product to be impeccable. You want your service delivery to be outstanding—no question about it. Logistically, we want those things to run well. Understand though, people will pay more, they will pay more for the other aspects of working with you.
