Style Japanese market is already experiencing the process of change, along with the concept of kaizen, they always make improvements. First they focused on me-too product. Now they not only excellence in technology, but also value to the consumer. Not surprisingly, their products have high Resale value.

The focus of Japanese firms in the decade from 1955 until 1965 is a product development driven by technological developments. The main attention of Japanese companies at that time focused on the expansion of R & D (research and development) to catch up with Western technology, which at that time led the five to eight years ahead. Many Japanese companies at that time was sending an investigative team to the American and European markets and make me-too product duplication. They do this to meet market demand in Indonesia, and also stealing market share of Western countries. If the market leadership position has been achieved, the Japanese company may have a competitive advantage in the market for several years to come.

During that period, the field of product development of Japanese firms simply follow the steps that made the Western countries. In fact, the Japanese company was not doing studies and research into the development of special products to market in Indonesia. At the beginning of this era, theory and actual marketing techniques were introduced and socialized to Japanese companies. They begin to learn and adopt techniques and methods of marketing research, sales promotion, and product planning. However, the marketing division at that time still emphasis on selling activities (selling oriented). Anyway, marketers must be able to sell products that have been developed by the research in laboratories and production at the plant.

In further developments, Japanese companies began to introduce and implement new methods in conducting market research. They started doing the planning and product development, and sales promotion activities with care. Many Japanese companies to modernize and improve internal (continuous process improvement), but unfortunately the time aspect has not been touched in an optimal distribution.

Decade 1965 to 1975 was the era of "marketing gimmick." This marketing era occurred during the high economic growth, which occurs fever purchase (buying fever). In Indonesia, the Japanese production began to throng the market. In addition, there has been rapid growth in modern retail outlets, both independent and chain stores. Consumer spending is driven by advertising and sales promotion activities, and visual merchandising. Items can be promoted very popular with the vigorous activity of commercial TV.

In terms of competition, in this period of Japanese firms strive to be a cost leader. They focused to reduce costs without reducing customer required specifications.

Through this era, more and more Japanese companies to improve their marketing style. Japanese companies are now implementing a total marketing system. Products produced by Japanese companies that succeed in the marketplace of ideas is no longer determined by the engineers or by doing me-too products, or advertising an attractive strategy. But, more determined by the appearance of products, superior product value (functional value and emotional value) that is owned, as well as the social mission (social mission) that run the company.

Products, Japanese companies are created at this time gained by continuing to explore the knowledge of consumers through consumer insight. They now have a compulsion to create products that truly benefit the community. In addition, these products must be created with the full support of creative and technological competencies of the company. Not only that, the product must also have created a competitive cost structure, through consumer testing at every phase of product development, and thus has a uniqueness that must be communicated at each stage of distribution channels.

Toyota Kijang is an example. Continuous innovation is a key driver of the Toyota Kijang is a market leader in Indonesia's automotive market. Innovation is certainly supported by design and technology. In addition, the deer are always consistent promotional activities to position itself as a family car. Another advantage is the factor of distribution and service excellence. Not less important is the Toyota Kijang has a good resale value (Resale value) high. As we know, many other Japanese automotive companies are successful, such as Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Daihatsu, which has similarities with the Toyota. Understandably, they run a similar style of marketing.

Stock is very important in the era of the world today, which determine a country's economy would fall or grow more rapidly

Gluskin Sheff economist David Rosenberg says in a note to clients Thursday that it's time to "take chips off the table." He says stocks have risen too far, volatility is rising and the economy remains too weak to support current prices.

None of this is exactly shocking, given that Rosenberg has been warning for the past year that stocks looked bubbly given high unemployment and other signs of economic slack. Since stocks bottomed in March 2009, he has been saying that they were overvalued by as much as 35%, based on indicators such as earnings multiples.

Crashproof?

But now Rosenberg contends the return of volatility, which measures how much stock prices tend to move in a given day, confirms that stock market bears will soon roar again. Despite his wrong-way bets of the past year, Rosenberg has some credibility because he was among the few who saw a recession as inevitable way back in 2007, before the full extent of the financial meltdown became clear.

"The most valuable information contained in last week's intense volatility, underscored by the 400-plus point bounce in the Dow, is that it's time to take chips off the table and brace for the breakdown," Rosenberg wrote Thursday.

Most of the previous single-day rallies on the Dow exceeding 400 points took place in the midst of steep long-term declines, Rosenberg contends.

"There have been no fewer than 16 such rallies of 400 points or more in the past, and 12 of them occurred during the brutal burst of the credit bubble and the other four took place around the tech wreck a decade ago," he writes.

Indeed, the first two 400-point gains took place in 2000 and 2001, amid the collapse of the tech bubble. Two more took place in July 2002, as stocks tumbled toward their post-9/11 low in October of that year. There were 10, count 'em, 400-plus point gains in 2008, when all hell broke loose and the stock market lost more than a third of its value.

Rosenberg's argument is on shakier ground with the 497-point gain last March, which, after all, came at a time when stocks were 3,000 points below their current level, and perhaps with this week's gain. While the "burst of the credit bubble" label may still stick, who knows for sure what comes next in the age of free money?

But there will be plenty of time to debate that later.
