Experientially, I find several recent Peloton communications, particularly the memo referenced here, to be elusively abstract with respect to recognizing their existence + success lie in – emerge directly from intangible (non-physical) assets.
Peloton, like most businesses today, irrespective of sector, is intangible asset intensive, dependent, and reliant. Business leaders’ operational unfamiliarity with business things intangible, and/or risk materializing to adversely target – effect particular intangible assets can, and frequently does. lead to asset undermining – devaluation.
I encourage business’ communications to not-be reluctant to recognize (internally- externally) their foundationally unique and brand specific intangible assets which they rely – depend.
That’s because it is these product – service – brand specificintangibles which translate – converge as rationale to-for…
- sustainable operating cultures to consistently produce products + deliver services,
- deemed adaptably attractive to-for projective buyers and users for a lucrative indeterminate future.
Unraveling + ensuring the developmental origins of those ‘mission essential’ intangible assets is legitimate represents a (fiduciary) obligation, as does reasonably safeguarding same from risk, e.g., disputes of ownership and/or doubts of accessibility and sustainability, etc., that translate to asset – product skepticism and devaluation relative to markets, buyers, and investors.
The Business Intangible Asset Blogwishes to responsibly – knowledgeably, and experientially introduce readers to relevant perspectives and circumstances in which business’s unique and often proprietary intangible assets play mission essential roles to…
- valuation, competitiveness, revenue generation capability-capacity, operating culture, and transaction (buy, sell, supply, sustainability, and license, etc.) attractivity.
Not-in-frequently, a business’s unique (mission essential) intangible assets which preferably converge – embed in products-services, reputations, and operating culture, are…
- un-recognized, under-appreciated, un-differentiated, under-utilized, under-valued, un-safeguarded, and otherwise, at risk – at the will of economic – competitive advantage adversaries and social media misinformation – trolling activities.
Experientially, leader appreciation for – articulation of the various ways and contexts which intangible assets apply operationally and contribute to (product/service) differentiation, attractivity, and valuation in this ‘memo’, is far from sufficient or specific for any business which is reliant – dependent on business things intangible.
The origin – development – ownership of a business’s ‘mission essential’ intangible assets, i.e., their valuation, taxation, and materiality-life cycle, etc., really matter to transferability, buy-sell transactions, and/or licensing potential.
It is routineto hear ex post facto expressions of frustration by business leaders, et al, who hold, have developed, and apply – rely on intangible assets, while other parties to-a-matter…
- prefer-seek to conventionally moderate – regulate the transferability, value-ability, and sustainability of intangible assets in play – in their favor.
Often overlooked dimensions to business communications and/or transactions dependent – reliant on valuation of particular-intangibles, is…
- acknowledging those assets’ contributory roles – value adds which have been influenced by the right collections – collaborations of intangible asset developed – introduced at the right time, in the right place, in the right way, at the right cost.
Today – foreseeable future, there should be no debate that businesses are increasingly – substantially more intangible asset intensive, dependent, and reliant, irrespective of sector, size, stage, maturation, revenues, products, or services.
Agreed, business leaders – marketers, et al, are generally trained and experientially versed in conventional – generational methods, venues, and language to project attractive – favorable perceptions of a product, service, offering, operating culture, and/or a launch, or transaction, etc., via its intangibles.
Authentically communicating samewhenever, however, wherever, accordingly, represents a (fiduciary) obligation for which ‘operational familiarity’ with business things intangible is a pre-requisite.
