Now there are people in China paying for this…

Businesses built with:No assets

No marketing No salesforce

NB: You can also argue that the traditional notions of customer are being replaced by a new form of

partnership

The Sharing Economy and its new stars

The Future

Is Now

Bring your own App“1. Work is in Office (outlook,

powerpoint, slideshare, salesforce ) =182. Hybrid is in Study (flipboard, pocket,

ted talks, podcasts) = 15 and Travel (Tube, Trains, TripIt)  = 21 so total of 36

3. Non-Work (non work stuff such as  iTunes and games)  = 9 

I have 12 social apps too (WhatsApp, Twitter etc) which I would put in hybrid but feel free to categorise them as non-

work”

“I have 75 apps on my iPhone. Non - work = 15

Work = 30 Hybrid = 30”
