My First Million

Back to Beliefs

Consumers buy products they have to buy and want products they want to buy - the goal is to turn 'have to' into 'want to'

Evidence

Method transformed cleaning products from hidden necessities into displayed objects of desire through design and positioning

Implication

Focus on emotional and aesthetic dimensions of functional products rather than just improving function

Counter Belief

Consumers primarily make rational decisions based on price and functionality

Example Application

Olly vitamins turned functional health supplements into lifestyle accessories through gummy format and benefit-focused branding
