Adulthood is often epitomised by diseases which take a long time to develop, whose impact can be more severe and cures more complex. Typically adults are more inflexible and less open to new initiatives, challenges and opinions.
Some common ailments include :
Arthritis
Treatment:
Lose weight: throw out old designs and marketing that are not working for you
Be flexible: respond to change, don’t ignore it (your market, your competitors, your customers)
Get active: external “instructors” can help your marketing and sales teams with new exercises that stretch them
Move around: Re-assess market penetration and customer experiences – are you still offering what they really want?
Take supplements: “oil” your creaking joints with some fresh marketing ideas
Cataracts
Treatment:
Reduce short-sightedness: develop marketing strategies that consider the short, medium and long term
Remove cataracts: external experts can provide objectivity and insight that can re-define how you look and operate in the future
