This week’s Grow with ReCo mini masterclass dives deep into the fundamental key to success for any business: meeting human needs.
The iPhone transformed the way we communicate. It took a simple calling device to become a computer in our pockets - a necessity in modern lives. Today, the iPhone is still at the forefront of technology, and a desirable device for many.
But what makes the iPhone so powerful?
Maslow's Hierarchy categorises human needs in a pyramid structure. The foundation is the basic needs, and on top are more complex needs. We can use the framework to understand your customers.
What makes the iPhone powerful is that it checks off every level of the pyramid, meeting their customers’ needs:
The iPhone is only a tool, but Apple inspires users to explore new ideas. It showcases what can be achieved with the iPhone camera from creators all over the world. It helps users achieve their own creative journey and express themselves authentically - that's the brand's superpower.
No, not all needs in Maslow's Hierarchy necessarily need to be fully met by a single business.
However, by identifying your customers' needs across these different levels, you can reach the full potential of your marketing efforts, including:
Apply the framework
Put yourself in your customers’ position. Talk to your customers. Make a list. Write down how your business can meet their needs.
This reinforces the foundation for all your marketing activities. We’ll use your list and dive into crafting powerful messages that grow your business later.
