CO-CREATION Definition- “Co-creation is an active, creative and social process, based on collaboration between producers and users, that is initiated by the firm to generate value for customers."

Prahalad and Ramaswamy (2000) :- Customers from being a passive audience for a firm’s offerings to becoming active players and co-creators of knowledge and value.

We see this process in services(e.g. hairstyling) but will increasingly see it for physical products. For example, in coming years, General Motors plans to allow customers to customize an automobile that will be manufactured to their specifications The extent of co-creation marketing depends on how much customer knowledge a company is able to accumulate and use

Enables and empowers customers to aid in product creation, pricing, distribution and fulfilment and communication. Enhance customer loyalty and reduce the cost of doing business. It means collaborating with and learning from customers by being adaptive to their individual and dynamic needs.

Steps in Co-creation Defining clear objectives for the project. Figuring out who are the right customers to involve in the process. Working with the customers to find out what they really want to include in the product or service. Selecting the partners to be included in your network. Overcoming the internal resistance to change.

Limitations Markets, companies and people do not change. Collaboration is much harder than competition. To change the mind set of people within the company into the way that the external customer thinks is not easy.

The concept of co-creation What Co-creation IS NOTWhat Co-creation IS Customer focus Customer is king or customer is always right Co-creation is about joint creation of value by the company and the customer. It is not the firm trying to please the customer Delivering good customer service or pampering the customer with lavish customer service Allowing the customer to co-construct the service experience to suit their context

What Co-creation IS NOTWhat Co-creation IS Mass customization of offerings that suit the industry’s supply chain Joint problem definition and problem solving Transfer of activities from the firm to the customer as in self- service Creating an experience environment in which consumers can have active dialogue and co-construct personalized experiences; product may be the same, but customers can construct different experiences
