Well, its time to move on from academics...So what is cycle ? Cycle is a vehicle which has 2 wheels and helps us to move from a place to another place, oops sorry... BLAH BLAH.
Keep is simple, cycle is nothing but a series of incidents from its beginning to an end.
Product life cycle, is pretty familiar over the administrative people.
it deals about the peak and fall of a product, why i am blabbering all these here ?
I have a relation with that, can be called as temporary relation(as of now)....
My modified understanding as follows:
1)A product has multiple stages from its entry to end, at the entrance it will undergo serious competition from rivalries and it has to sustain the fight in order to survive and to face so many obstacles.
2)Once it satisfies the tough fight, it has got some development stage, by failing in certain criterion it will understand HOW STUFF WORKS and also it will try to rectify the mistake.
As a legend said, GOOD JUDGEMENT COMES FROM EXPERIENCE AND EXPERIENCE COMES FROM BAD JUDGEMENT !
3)Peak time, now everyone will praise the product and will write stories which will extend to pages.
Such a great product, wonderful product, class range product etc etc. even if it comes with flaws, people will not mind it, because it was an established product.
4)Decline, now this fruit tastes bitter. by this time, people will get bored of this product, "What yaar? always eating Dosa. lets try PIZZA:P"
That attitude will roll and by that time, that product faces a DECLINE.
WHY I AM WRITING/Blabbering this ?
I can relate this to my blog, at the time of entry i faced serious troubles, none will come to comment and none will appreciate, i sustained that part and committed mistakes, tried learning from them, for sometime remained as a successful blogger, few newbies came to me for tips, i was surprised.
And then, there came this question, BLOGGING BLOGGING BLOGGING? whats there ?
SO there i gave a gap and i lost 50% of my interest and also due to some poor network and lack of time, i skipped my blog routines, my visits got declined, ranking declined....
This is a virtual world, people will talk for a day about our presence, then they will carry on their works, that's how things revolves here and that's the only way to keep us alive :)
There are very few things which remains as an example for exception, among them "A FAMOUS PRODUCT is GREED TO LIVE".
Be it at a baby stage, youth, middle aged or aged... the greed of living some more time never diminishes.
Certain greed lies as an exceptions :)
That's it, PRODUCT(people) life cycle redefined :)
Hi Dee..Finally you are here..:-) Nice to see ur post..:-)
ReplyDeleteWell. Once product declines, it is time to launch new product line.I have had 3-4 life cycles like that, taken a back and come back re-invented myself and written new kind of stuff. Welcome back to blog-o-sphere.
ReplyDeletewelcome back Dee... :)
ReplyDeletewas an excellent read...very true...completely agree with you... :)
Haha..I love your approach and yes you are a hundred percent right ;)
ReplyDeleteWelcome back :)
I missede u tons, buddy!!! Glad to have you back--and the time off seems to have done you good--thoughts are getting to be profound:)
ReplyDeleteYou know the Greeks heroes would fight with the Gods to ensure their "product" (i.e. their skills) did not decline!!! We need to fight the inner war to keep at it...keep blogging, my friend!
nice analogy...you are right here...most of the successful businessmen and women learnt the basic lessons of life, the hard way and not in an air-conditioned classroom, thats why they never forgot those lessons and actually knew the essence behind each of those !!
ReplyDeleteGood to see you back in action. Looks like you have really been busy with your studies, guessing from the topic. - There are very few things which remains as an example for exception, among them "A FAMOUS PRODUCT is GREED TO LIVE". Dang, that is whacky. Given your strange sense of humor, it is sometimes difficult to make out if it is an original Deepakism or something serious from your studies. I am never going to look at product life cycle the same way again.
ReplyDeleteSomebody"s back! Nalla irrikeengala?
ReplyDeleteThe break seems to have mellowed you. Good one, eh. Do keep the humour coming too. Welcome back. :)

Great to see you back Deepak !! I seem to have similar issues except that my network has been good but my mind has blanked off and i hardly seem to get the urge to write .....maybe because of the pressures in day to day life! well need to analyze myself ;).
ReplyDeleteAs usual a nice post Dee !!!
Great to see you back bro. :) And I don't think you are on the decline at all in the blogging arena, in fact you are yet to reach your peak. So I hope you keep blogging and keep improving. Most importantly I hope you have a better internet connection. :P
