Jacob Morgan on Social Media, Technology, Marketing, and Life: Scarcity, Good or Bad?

    Well, the premise seems to be that the product is not a natural sale and that lack or abundance is a variable to be massaged. That is zero-sum economics, and encourages frivolous products so long as they can be sold, by some formula or campaign, not by the quality or value of the item itself. I don't think you mean that though.

    i wouldn't say i encourage any type of product to be made. The main point if scarcity is going to be something that you try to control that you should be very careful with how you do it. frivolous products or not, from a business standpoint the goal is simply to sell them and make revenue. i definitely believe that the quality of the product is by far the most important attribute.

    what did you think of seth's post?
