While Abraham Harold Maslow spins furiously in his grave, Internet marketers are busy adapting his legendary hierarchy of needs for our new digitally-connected era. No surprise that the framework of Maslow’s thinking still stands the test of time today and we can draw reasonable parallels between the ways we express ourselves online and the more rudimentary psychological and physical needs that Maslow studied in the 1950s and 1960s.
Where are you on the pyramid? And where are your customers?
Thanks to Flowtown for sparking the idea.
