Hello大家，好久不見！ 這次我們邀請到的嘉賓是唐碩體驗創新資訊的合夥人兼執行總監，專注於為品牌提供整體的戰略、策略規劃以及落地服務。 時間線： 00:55 訪談開始，Nelson的自我介紹 01:36 如何得知唐碩？為何選擇加入唐碩？ 04:26 Nelson剛開始在上海工作的時候（2013年）市場對於體驗設計的理解是怎樣的？ 1.0 易用性，產品經歷/總監會來溝通需求 關注產品好不好用  2.0 不止要好用，還要定義產品的商業價值和目標，會有VP來溝通，不止是做可用性測試，還要看產品對企業的價值 3.0 更加深刻，體驗不單是用戶去用產品，用戶和品牌接觸的每個touchpoint都是體驗，都需要被設計，開始線下線上服務的整合，來溝通的可能是運營和品牌的負責人（17-19年，企業開始設置“首席體驗官CXO”） 4.0 線下成熟了，看到企業的組織內部本身，理解到體驗不是一個設計規劃的問題，而是一個戰略問題、組織性、市場戰略選擇的問題，CEO、總裁甚至會有董事會成員直接牽頭。體驗變成了企業的一个key advantage去參與市場競爭 10:42 在面對客戶時，如何去教育客戶什麼是體驗設計？會花多少時間教育客戶？ 了解對接人的職級，這會展示出客戶對體驗的重視程度，以及可以實現的可能性 核心是理清楚客戶核心想要的是什麼 15:42 前期於客戶對接的時候，如何通過了解對方的職級、需求來判斷預期要投入的工作量？ 如果顧客的職級和工作的範圍不匹配（比如一個普通的產品經歷想做品牌組織架構轉型），那麼大概率會減少投入（因為很可能無法實現） 看預算，如果資源不足，可能也要深度溝通，探索客戶的邊界，幫助客戶聚焦 溝通非常關鍵，有時候 20:20 Nelson分享了一個以體驗為中心的組織轉型案例 用戶視角，品牌視角，文化視角 26:18 設計資訊顧問的日常工作是怎樣的？可以細化到哪種程度？ 如果目標大是很難執行的，傳統的組織和人力很難接下新的服務標準、新的計畫，所以Nelson有時候甚至會幫客戶招聘人才 KOS - Key Opinion Sales 代表某個生活方式的銷售，可以跟用戶產生共鳴的sales 核心是always stick to clients' problems來看待商業上到底要解決什麼問題，畫圖只是一個手段 34:20 唐碩團隊人員的多元背景，牽扯到Nelson本人的一些職業成長經歷 企業越來越需要看到real value，需要涉及的內容越來越廣，因此團隊組成也是越來越多元，不止是數字化deliver，變成了一個大商業問題 38:46 唐碩如何衡量設計產出的價值？ 定義key indicators，制定要關注的指標 內部SaaS系統監測客戶對所有體驗的反饋和數據 42:30 如何收集和整合用戶反饋的數據？ 47:51 不同城市、地區對體驗設計認識的區別？ 54:00 一個P人的職業生涯～很多冒險，但擁抱變化！ 一直在follow my heart做事情，大學畢業先去紐約做了一年攝影師助理 後來去Zalora做時尚攝影師，後來因為對商業創新有興趣，於是專職到了marketing部門，先做social media的策劃，後來做SEM，經歷了很多drama，發現如果產品本身不行，帶進來多少流量都沒用，於是開始看產品都問題 Zalora的結構很扁平，於是有很多機會和CEO聊天，CEO忽然有一天就把他調去做產品經理負責增長和conversion rate，促成轉化的提升，於是開始了解產品的易用性和用戶體驗 67:08 職業生涯的規劃，思考關於个人branding和ip的重要性、小紅書，跟生活方式有關的東西；35岁新挑戰？繼續要做自己想做的事情 76:00 對於剛踏入用戶體驗領域的設計師有什麼建議？ 體驗本身是專注於生活，生活的方方面面都是體驗。千萬不要只專注在工作上，體驗生活是最重要的。如果你都不去體驗、理解生活，你怎麼把品牌的生活帶給你理想的消費者？你怎麼把好的體驗建議給到客戶？ 從硬技能角度講，體驗已經不純粹是一個design work，更多的是一個business solution。我們怎麼更去理解商業的視角，商業怎麼經營的，品牌怎麼經營、運營、發展的，以及對於行業的理解能力，了解這些才能去幫助自己所在的甲方或乙方提供解決問題的方案。多看case，理解每個行業的業務情況、遇到的問題，多讀行業報告 體驗接下來會是一個跨學科整合的能力 79:04 我們節目的老問題：如果有時光機，會跟年輕時候的自己說什麼？ Go with the flow and follow your heart! 做自己就好了，做自己喜歡的事情就很棒！不要太糾結。 核心還是找到自己真正喜歡的是什麼，嘗試讓選擇地區/職業這件事情更單純一點，年輕的時候賺多賺少可能沒那麼重要。往回看，過去的經驗somehow都會連接在一起。

Ex-Zalora CEO, Michele Ferrario did not want to become an entrepreneur but had a need that nobody could provide for here in the region. Despite 124 pre-launch rejections from early-stage investors, he went about trying to build it himself and Stashaway was then born.Commonly known as robo-advisors, digital wealth managers or digital investment managers as they are known here in Malaysia, were an exciting development in the financial industry with pioneers such as Wealthfront and Betterment leading the charge 15-16 years ago, pushing the idea of making investing cheaper, easier, and more accessible. That said, the industry has struggled to find a profitable footing, with some players in the US having to adjust or pivot their models in order to make it work.In this episode of Open For Business, we dive into how Stashaway is navigating this challenge, whether their business model actually works, and if so, what is going to get them in the black. Before that, we take a look back in 2016 and find out why the now-former CEO of Zalora switched industries and jumped into the world of wealth management, how Michele and his co-founders built Stashaway, and the key lessons he has learned from the 8 year journey with the company.

Questa settimana abbiamo intervistato un  imprenditore che ha alle spalle una exit di successo e la raccolta del più alto round pre-seed in Italia: parliamo di Marco Ogliengo, co-founder di Jet HR.    Fondata nel 2022 da Marco e Francesco Scalabrino, Jet HR è una tech company che sta disegnando un nuovo modello di gestione del personale eliminando la complessità burocratica. In sole due settimane, Marco e Francesco raccolgono 4,7 milioni di euro, uno dei più alti round pre-seed del mercato italiano. Il progetto è stato subito supportato da Exor Ventures e Italian Founders Fund, oltre che da alcuni dei grandi nomi del panorama startup italiano come i founder di Satispay, Bending Spoons, Poke House e Casavo. È il 2008 circa, anno di boom delle startup della Silicon Valley, quando Marco rimane affascinato dal successo di Facebook, Airbnb e Uber, e decide di voler diventare imprenditore inseguendo il sogno americano. Da lì l'inizio di tante esperienze: il tentativo di lanciare una prima startup, il lancio di Zalora in Asia lavorando per Rocket Internet, fino alla exit di successo di ProntoPro, la startup lanciata insieme alla moglie Silvia Wang (anche Silvia è stata ospite del nostro podcast nell'episodio numero 67, se volete andate ad ascoltarlo).   Con Marco abbiamo parlato degli insegnamenti che lo hanno portato a rimettersi in gioco dopo una exit e a raccogliere investimenti in tempi record, ma anche della vita da founder, da padre di 3 figli, e da marito di un'imprenditrice di successo. Siamo sicure che la storia di Marco sarà di supporto e ispirazione a molti first-time founders e a giovani imprenditori alla ricerca di consigli.

Today on Memorable Marketing, Bart speaks with Alin Dobrea, the Head of Marketing Solutions and Partnerships at ZALORA Group, Asia's leading online beauty, fashion, and lifestyle destination. One of the region's pioneers in large-scale e-commerce, ZALORA has a strong presence in countries like Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Brunei, Taiwan, and the Philippines, with over 50 million monthly visits. Here, the pair talk about insights into creating a campaign. According to Alin, the insight is what brings the campaign together and makes it stand on its own. It can be a simple message, or more complex – so long as a unique narrative can be built around a brand. The insight will also depend on the market the campaign is targeting, so localisations must be kept in mind. Alin explains there can be some difficulty when localising a brand in different regions. While it is necessary to appeal to local customers, brands should adopt a global approach instead. This means keeping the brand recognisable internationally but localise the communications and campaigns in regional markets. As someone passionate about advertising and marketing, Alin's agency experience allowed him to cut his teeth by working with a variety of clients. In Marks and Spencer, he joined the graduate trainee programme, which allowed him to work across different parts of the business, such as CRM, acquisition, brand management, creative production, and the marketing campaigns.  Finally, Bart and Valeriia wrap up the podcast by discussing Alin's experience with working on Marks and Spencer's Christmas campaign – where marketers must anticipate the future and work towards one major event in the entire year.  Memorable Marketing by MediaGroup is a series of interview podcasts with leading senior marketers, holding free-ranging conversations on their careers, outlook and interests.

Before building Antler from scratch, Magnus co-founded Zalora, the leading online fashion store in Asia.

The pandemic has accelerated and enhanced the commerciality of digital first, e-commerce, young and adaptive companies. The ability to move rapidly and both guide and follow their consumer base has propelled retail companies with a strong e-commerce base into a new world. These savvy and tech-based businesses process data and consumer insight rapidly, adjusting and evolving their approach and outlook to maximise efficiency and profit. This is reflected in their treasury and finance functions, where they can adapt to a fast paced environment and allow data and consumer insight to power a new kind of progressive and future focused decision making business model.

The pandemic has taken a significant toll on our mental health. More people in Singapore across different age groups are reportedly seeking help for mental health issues.

The pandemic has made e-commerce and online shopping the new normal - we buy everything online: from groceries to clothes, to even products that we would otherwise feel embarrassed to buy in stores. While it makes sense for us to shop online as we are discouraged to leave our homes, somehow we find ourselves feeling embarrassed whenever a new parcel comes at the door, and hide our purchases from our parents, siblings or spouses. Why do we do that and why do we feel that way? In this second part of our #WFH special, Hazelle, Azura and Germaine discuss shopping habits since the pandemic and talk about all the silly things that we do to conceal this new normal.

E-commerce is both exciting and scary. It continues to negatively impact brick-and-mortar businesses that refuse to acknowledge the value proposition of a borderless commerce model. With forecasts for growth of US$4.9 trillion in 2021, it promises to continue to be an exciting place to be in.In particular, Asia has become the world's largest e-commerce marketplace accounting for 59.7% of online retail and expect to reach 61.4% by 2024, according to Statista. While China continues to dwarf the region for its massive US$1 trillion market, Southeast Asia and South Asia are just as active and competitive with markets like India, Indonesia and Thailand forecasts to see CAGR of 13% or more, according to Statista. One of the leading online fashion stores in Asia, Zalora has been carving a niche for its use of big data and artificial intelligence to drive new levels of personalisation for itself and its brand partners.Quiron Aguiar, Senior Strategy Director with Zalora, opens up on how data is helping the online fashion giant stay at the forefront of customer engagement and business growth.

How did being a traditional online seller take you to the journey of starting up StratQuad? Charles sold items online under the name of Cotton Depot. His primary products were bedsheets under the brand of sleep essentials. While continuing his online business, his sibling called him and offered him a business opportunity. His sibling proposed starting up a fulfillment center because it was growing really well in the U.S. After fleshing out the idea more, they talked percentages and also agreed on the amount they wanted to invest in it. Did you do intensive research before putting up this business? Charles and his sibling have seen the business grow in other countries. Ecommerce is quickly growing and there is a market for the service that they want to put up. The only thing that they didn't know was whether or not the market would use their services. Charles never did a feasibility study. He just trusted his gut feeling that it will work. And that eventually led to StratQuad. It started in August 2018. During the time, they were only fixing things up. They had their first customers in October 2018. What is Strat Quad? What do you do? Strat Quad is a fulfillment center that caters to all e-commerce platforms. They are integrated with Lazada, Shopee, Zilingo, Zalora, Shopify, and Woocomerce. They are the ones that process the orders of online sellers. They started as a back-end solution for e-commerce websites. Now, they also provide importation services they can also provide free delivery services for shipments above 3CbM.  They're clients also have the option to not have their items delivered to their doorsteps and instead let the Strat Quad team distribute the merchandise for them.  The eliminate the difficult part of being an online store which is to deliver the items How do people find out about this service? Right now, Charles relies on word of mouth. Currently, they are already partnered with the big platforms and they're supportive of the relationship. Strat Quad aims to make starting an online store as simple as it can be for those who make use of their services.  What is your pricing model for Strat Quad? Strat Quad starts at PHP8,500.00 per CbM. Within the website, there's a simple form that you need to fill out to import certain things that you've already delivered to their warehouse. If the shipment is below 3CbM, then it can be delivered via Lalamove to your address Why would people want their merchandise to be delivered to them when it's easy to have you store and fulfill their orders? This is something that Charles also doesn't understand. Some people don't want to surrender their headaches to someone else. He thinks it's because these people still want to save some money, but it's a real mystery. Some clients only want fulfillment, and some of them want to handle their importation. Each has their own preference.  That being said, Charles still opens their services to anyone who wants it. The important part is that their clients can focus solely on selling. Do your clients still need to contact you whenever there's a sale? Lazada and Shopee have seller centers. Sellers can choose to put the StratQuad email under Orders and Fulfillment and Charles will gain access to all the information needed to receive, deliver and fulfill those orders.  How much do they pay? Why don't some people do this?  Charles charges PHP750 per month for 1.5CbM. For comparison, 3CbM is around the same space as an L300. That's a lot of space for just PHP1500 a month. With regard to value per money, it's incredibly worth it. Support the show (https://tribe.leadershipstack.com/)
