Melinda Gates 1, What nonprofits can learn from Coca-Cola (script)
Summary
This was a mistake that is an assumption that if people need something, it makes them want that. You really have to work with the community. And then, people start to understand what they really want. It changes communities and it leads to changing whole nations. It's like Coca-Cola ubiquitous. Coca-Cola is everywhere where you don't expect.
It's because many real time data is gathered and feed it back immediately. Even if it's remote village, entrepreneurs are hired and incredible marketing is done. If this global network is used for the world health care, vaccinations and sanitation. It'll make people, especially children and mothers be healthy and have a successful life.
The speaker asks us one more. If there is no lack of money, polio can be eradicated.
Coca-Cola marketing can be said of the state that happiness is ubiquitous.
