Scott Galloway: Google's Umbrella
Показать описание
This week’s first winner is the U.S. Postal Service, which delivers an estimated 40% of Amazon packages annually. While Amazon pays the USPS only half of what it pays UPS and FedEx, all packages are delivered pre-sorted and tailored for delivery routes. Plus, USPS needs all the help it can get, having lost $46 billion since 2007.
Google could also be either a winner or a loser with its new conglomeration strategy. Alphabet feels like an opportunity to create multiple titles, the way some agencies have a half-dozen chief digital officers. It could also be the beginning of a good bank/bad bank strategy where they split off money-losing operations – i.e. everything but Google.
A less ambiguous winner: Arby’s. The chain bought a 60-second spot on Jon Stewart’s last Daily Show thanking the host for being a friend — sort of. The ad featured all the times Stewart mentioned Arby’s, which he repeatedly portrayed in a less than flattering light (sample comparison: “Shock and awe for your bowels”). However, it seemed to impart a different message. In the hour following the show, tweets about Arby’s spiked significantly. Most of them were positive.
