Eric Arnson |
|
| Eric is a curious guy. He likes to understand why consumers make the choices they do. |
|
He pioneered a new marketing philosophy: Consumer-driven Brand Strategy. This well documented approach redefined the core tenets necessary for effective consumer marketing. This included a rigorous opportunity assessment through understanding needs (over 60 categories); defining the nature and basis of the consumer relationships
(via intangible and tangible benefits);
and quantifiably validating the drivers
of preference (through a dependent variable model with behavioral and attitudinal components). |
|
| Eric began his professional career at Procter & Gamble. He later joined Beecham Cosmetics as Director of Marketing. He was one of the original partners at Cambridge Group, leaving to launch ENVISION which was acquired by McKinsey & Company. He was a Partner at McKinsey & Company, serving as a leader in the North American Branding Practice. He also led numerous Brand engagements, focused on integrating ENVISION’s innovative growth strategies and insightful quantitative methods with McKinsey’s traditional supply side strengths. |

He is a contributing author for REVEAL: Where Are You? and six other books in the REVEAL series. In addition, he continues to research and teach Leadership development. |
