All of these trends converge with the idea of co-creation – engaging customers, vendors, employees inside of a hyper engaged, managed community allows you to eliminate the skepticism, leverage the power of influencers and advocates in the community, focus on the 20% whales (profitable customers) and involve them in the creation of your next offer.
All of this builds loyalty, profitability as well as positive word of mouth – it’s a self-feeding cycle.
