74. Ford “The major take-away was, if you’ve
got a good product, turn it over to your
customers. Let go of your fear. Turn it over
to your customers and let them tell your
story. Why? First, we had a really good
product that we were proud and very
confident in.
“Second, people don’t trust big companies
and government the way they used to.
They trust third parties… the media,
academics, analysts… But more
importantly, they trust people like
themselves. That’s exactly what we did
with the Fiesta movement. We had 100
people (each provided with a Fiesta and
instructed to do some story telling on social
media platforms). If you couldn’t find
someone in that 100 that was a bit like you,
then that was our fault.”
