沈海中Market Breakthrough: Speed Is Essential!
From a cost perspective, a rapid market breakthrough is the lowest-cost marketing approach.

Some companies are reluctant or lack confidence to invest, constantly 'testing' with small amounts of resources, resulting in wasted money and poor results. Marketing is about creating momentum; once you find an effective model, you must dare to invest heavily in a short time, which is the most effective way to quickly launch a market.

Compared to the latter, the former appears more sincere and more "self-media." What Virgin teaches us is a brand personality that is consistent inside and out: seemingly cynical and challenging tradition, yet actually bold, meticulous, and full of entertainment spirit, committed to viewing brand value through the "lifelong relationship" between brand and user.
