Tad Hargrave: 我认为成功的约会和成功的营销有很多共通之处,它们都建立在三个支柱之上:道德、有效性和美感。道德意味着真诚和透明,没有隐藏的议程,而是专注于寻找合适的匹配。有效性意味着你的方法能够产生实际的结果,在约会中是找到合适的伴侣,在营销中是达成销售。美感则关乎你与他人互动的方式,以及你如何让你的营销活动变得赏心悦目,让人们感到积极和快乐。 在约会中,许多人会陷入‘好人’的陷阱,只关注道德,却忽略了表达自己的意愿和寻找合适的对象。而成功的营销则需要平衡道德、有效性和美感,才能最终获得成功。 我建议人们在约会和营销中都应该采用‘衡量’的策略,即在投入时间和精力之前,先测试一下是否合适。这包括了解你自己的需求和期望,以及对方是否与你匹配。在约会中,这可能意味着坦诚地表达你的意图,并注意对方的回应;在营销中,这可能意味着在销售之前,先进行市场调研和客户筛选。 此外,我还认为,人们应该勇于承担风险,克服对拒绝的恐惧。在约会中,这可能意味着主动与心仪的对象搭讪;在营销中,这可能意味着大胆地尝试新的营销策略。 总而言之,成功的约会和成功的营销都需要真诚、策略和美感,以及勇于承担风险的勇气。 Ryan Michler: 我同意Tad的观点,约会和营销确实有很多相似之处。尤其是在当今社会,人们越来越容易受到操纵和欺骗,因此,道德营销和真诚的约会就显得尤为重要。 Tad提到的‘衡量’策略非常实用,它强调了在投入时间和精力之前,先进行测试和评估的重要性。这不仅适用于约会,也适用于商业合作和各种人际关系。 此外,Tad还强调了克服恐惧和勇于承担风险的重要性。在约会中,这可能意味着主动表达自己的感情;在营销中,这可能意味着尝试新的营销策略,即使可能会失败。 总的来说,Tad的观点为我们提供了宝贵的经验和指导,帮助我们更好地理解如何在约会和营销中取得成功。

(00:47:33) - What are the key implementations of ethical marketing?

Tad Hargrave is a hippy who developed a knack for marketing (and then learned to be a hippy again).  Since 2001, he has been weaving together strands of ethical marketing, Waldorf School education, a history in the performing arts, local culture making, anti-globalization activism, an interest in his ancestral, traditional cultures, community building and supporting local economies into his work helping people create profitable businesses that are ethically grown while restoring the beauty of the marketplace).
