What we Learned from Rubik’s Cube.

When this toy was all the rage, it had people scratching their heads. Millions bought this little contraption, and only handfuls figured it out. (Some marketing strategy, eh?) But what it proved was not that consumers weren’t smart enough to find the solution, but that in many ways, they were overthinking the problem. The solution to Rubik’s Cube was not some complex trigonometric equation...rather, it was a simple, repeatable procedure which turned on one key understanding: the center squares were a clue to the solution.

At CGSM, we integrate direct marketing programs in much the same way. We take complex market circumstances and parameters and work through them with simplified steps. We identify the central truths and use them as clues to the larger solution. As with Rubik’s Cube, every tactical move must support the larger brand and marketing strategy. Just one oversight, and you may waste valuable time and dollars re-tracing your steps to the final solution.
