“Instacart and Postmates are both avoiding the infrastructure model mistakes. They are leveraging the existing infrastructure of grocery stores, not building their own infrastructure.
They focus on two areas, delivery and customer service, and concentrate their resources on excelling in those departments.”

“Once the dust settles, as you look more closely, you will find you are acquiring worse and worse cohorts of customers. In many cases, to make the advertising really sing, you are running promotions and deals that erode your margin and your brand.”

Long Tail (Chris Anderson)
• E-commerce (Amazon)
• Advertising (Google Adwords, Adsense)
• Publishing (blogs, crowdsourcing, YouTube, etc.)
• New: Logistics (Uber, GoJek, Postmates)
PAGE 32
No-Tail implications on ecosystem in SEA
• Relatively simple ad tech environment
• Affiliate marketing still nascent
• Demand-side platform (DSP) market still nascent
• Accelerated development and proliferance of e-commerce and other non-ad based business models
• “Traditional” digital agencies’ scope reduced to executing global contracts and buying offline media (in US, these agencies still have a role to play due to complicated ad tech environment)

The CMO as Billy Beane
“Enter the Moneyballer CMO.
Today’s Moneyballer CMO plans her marketing initiatives the way Billy Beane built the Oakland A’s. She leverages granular data on customer actions to expand beyond the traditional CMO role, influencing product strategy, customer service, and optimized sales pitches.
The Moneyballer CMO still uses smart agencies and consultants, but insources the core marketing strategy using the increased visibility her technology allows. She also insources her company’s data, employing it across multiple platforms and applications. Silos are the enemy of the Moneyballer CMO, because connected data means more holistic and measurable results.”

“The new job title of “Growth Hacker” is integrating itself into Silicon Valley’s culture, emphasizing that coding and technical chops are now an essential part of being a great marketer… The role of the VP of Marketing, long thought to be a non-technical role, is rapidly fading and in its place, a new breed of marketer/coder hybrids have emerged.”

7 Core Pillars of Acquisition Marketing

“What they don’t do is the more nuanced (hard) work of looking at how the marginal cohorts are declining in value. What they don’t look at is the detailed impact on the quality of that growth, aka the margins and repeat transactions attached to it.”
“Why don’t they do this? Part of it is the systems to look at the data are rarely very good in a start-up. Part of it is you’ll need really talented analysts, a precious resource and often a luxury at the early stage where most people are zapped just keeping the trains running on time. Part of it is even if the systems are pristine and the data is rapidly returned by ready analysts to business (which I’ve not seen three for three at any start-up), it can take twelve to eighteen to twenty-four months to have confidence in where the cohorts are going.”
