In a new book, written by Hermawan Kartajaya and Philip Kotler titled Marketing 3.0: Values-Driven Marketing, they argued that marketing has moved to its next stage: Marketing 3.0. they define Marketing 1.0 as a product-centric era, marked with the famous saying of Henry Ford, “Any customers can have a car painted any color that he wants as long it is black”.
When it comes to today’s information age where consumers are well informed and can compare several value offerings of similar products, then the product value is defined by the consumer. They called it Marketing 2.0 or customer-centric era.
We will soon witness the rise of Marketing 3.0 or the human-centric era where consumers will be treated as human beings who are active, anxious, and creative. They will request more participation in value creation. They will demand their deepest anxieties and desires—not traditional needs and wants—identified and fulfilled and they will ask for their creativity to be appreciated.
Marketing 3.0 thinks about consumers as whole humans with hearts, minds and spirits. Increasingly, consumers are looking for solutions to their anxieties and to make the globalized world a better place.
Philip Kotler talks about a world full of confusion! Consumers search for companies that meet their deepest needs for social, economic and environmental justice in their mission, vision and values.
They look not for only functional and emotional fulfilment but also human spirit fulfillment in the products and services they choose.
In short Marketing 3.0 practioners have bigger missions, visions and values to contribute to the world. Therefore Marketing 3.0 compliments emotional marketing with human spirit marketing.

If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.
There will not be many websites with data like this man! Bookmarked!
Your site is so informative … keep up the good work! Also, is your wordpress theme a free one? and if so..can i have it?
Wow! I just saw this post from Bing and I found this very amazing. This is one of the informative post this day. Please continue what you want that is helpful for you and everyone.
I was recommended to your blog by a close associate of mine and wanted to check out what the buzz was all about.. now I know why she was so very excited about it. thakn heaven I found your blog at the theright time. You certainly rock and same is the case with your blog too. I enjoy reading every post of yours and sometimes, a confession here, might end up reading it often.
I know I sound like an infomercial offering.
I have been searching practically everywhere on info about this. Thanks a lot.
The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.
Excellent work once again. Thanks a lot:)
