This is completely analogous to the situation elsewhere on the internet, where launching a new website, product, or service with PR is getting harder and harder. On the web, we have many of these channels: SEM, SEO, world of mouth, PR and viral. Or if your lifetime value is high enough, you can just keep spending on SEM.

In this model, you take some fraction of the lifetime value of each customer and plow that back into paid acquisition through SEM, banner ads, PR, affiliates, etc. For Neopets, its simply a side-effect of their game-like product design. But its not really viral growth, even when its exponential.

The driving force helps shape technology choices, importance of design, market segment, and business model as well as company culture, growth plan and exit strategy. The “encroachment&# of business or engineering on design is (theoretically) dependent on the driving force, rather than personal bias.

Announce a new product, start its PR campaign, and engage in buzz marketing activities. Even if you must launch to your customers, avoid the urge to also launch in extra places, just because your PR firm can do it at the same time.

The design was actually a negative drag on selling anything off a retail shelf. From grumbling skeptics, they all became packaging design converts. And for sure they were never going to win any design awards. So we not only sent everyone through packaging school, we also brought the packaging design in-house.

For example, PR doesn’t scale. It seems like such an amazingly efficient source of customers, yet ask any marketing communications or PR professional to acquire 10x the number of customers that they did last year and they’ll look at you as if you have 10 heads. Churn rates are another metric that can get harder with scale.
