Seth Godin and the Marketing of Sauerkraut

Seth Godin is probably best known as a marketing and business strategist, but I follow his blog (see link below) as a source of inspiration. Although he often writes about business topics, many of his posts contain ideas for personal improvement and change which often provides me with food for thought!

One example is the short post below. While it is specific to marketing, there is a lesson there for many of us! I hope you find it interesting and if you do, you can subscribe to his blog.

Marketing sauerkraut (by Seth Godin, JUNE 7, 2018)

“The story goes that James Cook brought fermented german cabbage with him on a long voyage, an innovative way to combat scurvy.

He knew that getting his sailors to eat this strange and stinky food was going to be difficult, particularly since scurvy is a long-term problem, not something you want to try to solve after you get it.

His answer was based on recognizing the power of status roles and is widely applicable:

For the first two weeks of the journey, only the captain and the officers were allowed to eat sauerkraut.

Demand creation through status roles has a long history, apparently.”

Photography Quote — 20180606

Today’s Photography Quote

 

“There is only you and your camera. The limitations in your photography are in yourself, for what we see is what we are.” – Ernst Haas

**********

Every photographer develops a style and favors particular subjects such as landscapes, astrophotography, architecture, etc. Through their choice of subject matter, they capture images and process them to match their creative vision.

Some photographers have such a distinctive style and vision what when you see one of their shots, you know it. The quote above reminds me of our individual approach to the broad field of photography.

Of course I am not speaking about myself or my photographs, although the photograph above is representative of my “style” and “vision.” I captured this scene because of the deep shadows and the reflections. I find reflections and how they are distorted by the object on which they are reflected quite interesting.

For many viewers, the scene may not be obvious at first because of the abstract nature of the reflections in the slow-moving stream. I hope that readers will stop to examine the scene to grasp and appreciate the content.
