Harmo and the feedback economy
For this newly minted startup, the future lies in the feedback economy.
“The relationship between the brand and the consumer is more digital than ever,” stated Harmo on its website.
“Customers are communicating with brands through several digital channels at the same time. They also want to buy from trusted brands that are well-rated by other consumers. And they want to connect with more humanized brands that listen to what they have to say about the delivered experience.”
Truly through social media and online communication platforms, consumers have multiple channels through which they can praise or lash out against a brand. Moreover, their standards go beyond simply “buying” a product or service.
