The New York Times bestselling author heralds the future of business in Free . In his revolutionary bestseller, The Long Tail , Chris Anderson demonstrated how the online marketplace creates niche markets, allowing products and consumers to connect in a way that has never been possible before. Now, in Free , he makes the compelling case that in many instances businesses can profit more from giving things away than they can by charging for them. Far more than a promotional gimmick, Free is a business strategy that may well be essential to a company's survival. The costs associated with the growing online economy are trending toward zero at an incredible rate. Never in the course of human history have the primary inputs to an industrial economy fallen in price so fast and for so long. Just think that in 1961, a single transistor cost $10; now Intel's latest chip has two billion transistors and sells for $300 (or 0.000015 cents per transistor--effectively too cheap to price). The traditional economics of scarcity just don't apply to bandwidth, processing power, and hard-drive storage. Yet this is just one engine behind the new Free, a reality that goes beyond a marketing gimmick or a cross-subsidy. Anderson also points to the growth of the reputation economy; explains different models for unleashing the power of Free; and shows how to compete when your competitors are giving away what you're trying to sell. In Free , Chris Anderson explores this radical idea for the new global economy and demonstrates how this revolutionary price can be harnessed for the benefit of consumers and businesses alike.

如果所有的知识都能如这些年来IT的发展速度那么快,那这个世界会有多疯狂,所幸我们的感情,文化,几千年来没有那么大的变化,执子之手,与子偕老仍然是我们现代人的梦想,人的感受还是脱不了爱恨情仇,生老病死,才不会觉得在变化的时间中迷失方向。 作为一个it人,实在很悲哀...
评分焦建/文 “世界将是‘免费’的”。有关世界的未来,这已经是你见识过的第几个此类句式了?而当下奉献这个判断的,就是那个曾经写出了《长尾理论》的克里斯.安德森。在新经济杂志领头羊——《连线》的这块阵地上,安德森一遍又一遍的对这个观念进行鼓吹。在经济危机已经成为理解...
评分我喜欢“从第一天就收费”的初创公司: - 利润 = 收入 - 成本,这是初创公司的“欧拉恒等式”。 - 大多数初创公司的死亡证明书赫然钉着两滩血字:没钱! - 小团队缺兵少粮,“先赚用户再赚钱”无异于缘木求鱼。 - 用户肯掏钱是需求存在且强烈的最有力证明。 - 愿意付费的用户...
评分免费、不免费 真免费、假免费 免不免费不重要,重要的是其后面的规律 记录一些心得。 在免费心理学一章中,谈到了“心智交易成本mental transaction costs”。其实,所有的交易都存在这个心智成本,最终的交易都是交易意愿做的最后决定。也许是图便宜、也许是图它奢华、也许是...
一个人人都知道的话题却在Anderson的系统整理和旁征博引中显示了如此的深度和广度。问题是,当免费经济模式的秘密被揭穿后,运用同样模式的企业又如何展开竞争呢?
评分“The way to compete with Free is to move past the abundance to fill the adjacent scarcity. Not only can you compete with Free in that instance, but the people who need these custom solutions are often the ones most willing to pay highly for them.”
评分也学习一下互联网思维,被洗脑了
评分这本比长尾差太多了也。。
评分Free is not free because the essential part of free is freemium!~
