nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - For the first time, an overarching and systematic process is presented to think about creating your digital strategy. Traditional models will not form the basis for future success. These models are focused on a one way street - promote, target and sell - often competing against the rest of the world. We need a new approach to orient our organizations to the new connected world. The 5 actionable frameworks in this book will help you align your digital strategy with the customer. This book is about partnership with customers, about connecting with them on multiple levels, about crafting uniqueness, about leveraging the transformation this connected world is going through, and as a result, about staying ahead of the pack. Learn why and how you should: 1. Not leave to chance what customers need to build context 2. Unify emotional appeal with physical interactions 3. Not just be different or niche, but be un-commoditized 4. Not act as the 5 blind men as you engage with customers 5. Look beyond your own products and create new linkages The five principles in this book will also provide a validating structure for your existing strategies. 1. The Principle of External Reinforcement How should you be the customers' advocate and trusted advisor, so they make a decision 'with' you instead of 'about' you Be your customers' reference point and one of the centers of their universe. If they have to look beyond you for validation, you've lost the advantage and submitted yourself to an unforced error from your competitor. How can you embed yourself in their decision process - explicitly or implicitly - and help them along this journey 2. The Principle of Customer Interaction It's a fact. Some products are high touch, some are not. Some connect at the emotional level, some at the physical interaction level, and some at both. Both engagement models peg you in your customer's mind - that peg is called your brand. But your competition is not keeping still. They are constantly trying to dethrone you through direct or flank attacks. Hence, understanding how to create relationships from both ends of the engagement spectrum is the key to success. 3. The Principle of Un-Commoditization Your fundamental philosophy, your passion, your excellence, these are all factors that go towards differentiating yourself. The term 'differentiation' however has become an overused technical term that seems to distance your operations from your strategy. Instead I chose to use the word un-commoditization to reflect the harsh realities of today's connected world. This principle provides the elements of how to think about breaking away from the pack. Un-commoditization is always possible and is critical to securing a position in your customer's mind. Without a distinctive position in the customer's mind, you might as well save your brand marketing budget. 4. The Principle of Presenting Who are you If you are like most companies, your customers can potentially use more than one of your products or services. Are you presenting them in silos, or creating harmony between them The principle of Presenting is aimed at helping you become the singular brand powerhouse that you should be, striving to meet customer needs. 5. The Principle of Completion It's obvious that your products meet a customer need. But your customers also use products which have nothing to do with you. Many of these needs are linked to each other. This principle is about the art of alliances, building a communication network that spans the entire spectrum of customers' needs. The ecosystem you choose to be part of will define you in the future. Those who are isolated will be left behind.…

Go beyond digital marketing to succeed in today's world!
For the first time, an overarching and systematic process is presented to think about creating your digital strategy. Traditional models will not form the basis for future success. These models are focused on a one way street - promote, target and sell - often competing against the rest of the world.
We need a new approach to orient our organizations to the new connected world. The 5 actionable frameworks in this book will help you align your digital strategy with the customer.
This book is about partnership with customers, about connecting with them on multiple levels, about crafting uniqueness, about leveraging the transformation this connected world is going through, and as a result, about staying ahead of the pack.
Learn why and how you should:
1. Not leave to chance what customers need to build context 2. Unify emotional appeal with physical interactions 3. Not just be different or niche, but be un-commoditized 4. Not act as the 5 blind men as you engage with customers 5. Look beyond your own products and create new linkages
The five principles in this book will also provide a validating structure for your existing strategies.
1. The Principle of External Reinforcement
How should you be the customers' advocate and trusted advisor, so they make a decision "with" you instead of "about" you? Be your customers' reference point and one of the centers of their universe. If they have to look beyond you for validation, you've lost the advantage and submitted yourself to an unforced error from your competitor. How can you embed yourself in their decision process - explicitly or implicitly - and help them along this journey?
2. The Principle of Customer Interaction
It's a fact. Some products are high touch, some are not. Some connect at the emotional level, some at the physical interaction level, and some at both. Both engagement models peg you in your customer's mind - that peg is called your brand. But your competition is not keeping still. They are constantly trying to dethrone you through direct or flank attacks. Hence, understanding how to create relationships from both ends of the engagement spectrum is the key to success.
3. The Principle of Un-Commoditization
Your fundamental philosophy, your passion, your excellence, these are all factors that go towards differentiating yourself.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to AHA-BUCH GmbH, Einbeck, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
