27 Strictly Private & Confidential Key Success Factors Principals . Perception is reality

. Exclusive without arrogance. Must be engaged and accessible.

. Unlike other industries the secondary market plays a key role in the success of the brand

. Brand must have the ‘cool factor’

. Unprecedented level of customer service

. Fewer but targeted events. Target marketing more important than mass marketing

. Influencers are important but they can also be positive one day and negative the next.

. Blogs can create rumors and speculation. Negative press spreads faster than positive press
