Comments on: What business am I in? http://contributionmarketing.wordpress.com/2007/02/25/what-business-am-i-in/ People are connected through, email, cell phones, IM, social networks and blogs. A new democracy is forming quickly. The rules of the game are changing. The power of the collective will start to influence us beyond the boundaries of Media/ICT.(web 2.0). People seek sustainability, contribution to their life and that of the community, transparancy and intrinsic product values. Contribution Marketing helps companies to transist from being focussed on growth(isolated) to being focussed on contribution(connected).

Companies as tools, maybe even delivering value, maybe even knowing what value they deliver... MAYBE even thinking about that as a mission statement (a conscious marketers dream)!!! The notion of "the empowered and connected human" is so great... I am going to post this post on my blog with further comments. I love this. Thanks Raimo. Wow great insights.

"Well it is US. Not the United States but YOU, ME and WWW." Great sentence. Your ideas of making a contribution to the world from the resources you have access to is very interesting. The word 'contribution' is such a powerful word. I associate this with the Dutch word 'gunnen'. Can't find a proper English translation for 'gunnen', but here's how the Dutch dictionairy explains it. I typed the English translation below. gun·nen (ov.ww.) 1 NL uit goedheid schenken misgunnen EN "grant/offer from goodness" 2 NL zonder nijd of spijt zien dat een ander iets heeft of ontvangt EN "seeing without envy or regret that another one has or receives something" 3 NL de uitvoering van een werk aan iem. toewijzen EN "assigning the implementation of a work to someone" As Gerjanne says.. it makes a lot of sense.
