Promoting Japan 100 Years Ago

Nov

Japan 1910

My friend sent me a link to a web site that has many images from 100 year ago Japan. Those picture are used to tourism to Japan.

Even back then images of girls were used to promote. "SEX SELLS" was already there 100 years ago. Those images are very foreign to me. They don't look very authentic but they might be what it was in Japan 100 years ago.

Talking about promotion, PSPINC is not very good at promoting its image and products. We need to really think about the our PR strategy. But then again I am in product design and development.

Whenever there is a chance I would like to do business with our customers. For instance, we purchased Subaru in our Southern California operations because Fuji Heavy Industries in Washington is our clients. For that reason, we will probably buy more Subaru cars for our Washington operations as well.

This is called Mutual Business or simply a courtesy. If you want to do business with PSPINC, consider using PSPINC service.

Tablet Prices

Nov

When you can buy a 9" Android Tablet for $50, why is that by having names like Apple, Samsung and Microsoft on the tablet will cost much more? Their cost must be close or below $50 too. By having the m=names like Apple, Samsung and Microsoft would mean better products ... are they? Or is it like a fashion statement. I guess it is both function and fashion.

You are no Steve!

Where is Steve? http://www.apple.com

Apple stock took a dive again.

I guess Apple needs to grow up from the shadow of Great Steve Jobs. Trying to do the same things what Steve did marketing Apple products by someone who is no Steve can only last for long.

Apple still have great products but they need better innovative and fun marketing. Apple is becoming more and more corporation than innovative fun loving group of people and that shows. I wish they would be more creative in the marketing. Their products are still ahead of anyone else.
