Marketing Suspense Thriller

You have Grisham on Law. Cook on Medicine. A few folks writing about Computing.
Would be cool to write a suspense thriller on "marketing", high-end marketing. The public relations type of marketing. Explaining how the branding originates from one end and continues to another on various media, how the whole activity is well-coordinated.

Who am I kidding?

Ok fine. I hate failure :-P

Should I?

Line from a movie. Interesting way of looking at it.

.....thinking......No thanks. I don't want to accept it as a value system.

Edward DeBono's New Message.

MESSAGE FOR WEEK BEGINNING 24th April 2006

Create a Story

Take five random words in a sequence and then construct a story using the words in the same sequence. You are not permitted to say, for example, that you looked at a mail ordedr catalogue and ordered five objects (the random words) from the catalogue. Each word must be fully used in its own right. The final story should not be more than 250 words long.

Transformation

I think I'm going through a transformation. Last such transformation occurred somewhere in 2002. Since recently I have been a logical, a-emotional (not unemotional), deterministic, rigid, set-in-the-ways individual looking at reality like it's a robust computational machine powered by a set of interwoven algorithms. This set of schemas was set by Conway's Game of Life (I think).

I viewed reality under the same perspective.

Now, while the inner crust is still spinning around impeccable logic, reason and rational, on the outer level I have become more fluid, more adaptive, deeply penetrative and more understanding of human behavior. The desire to dig in deeper to quench some unknown thirst has blossomed. This set of schemas originated out of a Malcolm Gladwell session.

I'm learning to view large scale phenomena such as marketing more as "chaos theory" and less as "algorithmic".

I have always fancied the idea of being an artist-like creative and a logician-like analytical person at the same time.

I think the transformation has begun. I cannot and must not lose my current, internal core.

Marketing to younger segment

When is it good?
When your product or service can become a hard to break habit. Like using technology.
