The old question: What product will I sell?
The new question: How do I develop products that meet the diverse needs of demanding consumers?...

The old question: Where should I sell my product?
The new question: How do I expose my product to the right consumers?...

The old question: At what price do I optimize profitability?
The new question: How do I assure profitability in a more price-transparent world?...
