When I joined Apple the company was in decline. It seemed to have lost what had once been a very clear sense of identity and purpose. Apple had started trying to compete to an agenda set by an industry that had never shared its goals. While as a designer I was certainly closer to where the desicions were being made, but I was only marginally more effective or influential than I had been as a consultant. This only changed when Steve Jobs (co-founder of Apple) returned to the company. By re-es- tablishing the core values he had established at the beginning, Apple again pursued a direction which was clear and different from any other companies. Design and innova- tion formed an important part of this new direction. Jonathan Ive Senior Vice President of Industrial Design

experience • The Product Experience functional attributes of the product, how well the thing works (e.g. special ingredients in a product) experiential features, how the product works (e.g. technologies in production process) aesthetics (design, colors, shapes of the product) • The Look and Feel The look and feel includes the visual identity (name, logo, signate, packaging, store design, Web Sites) • Experiential Communications Experiential Communications include the advertisement; it has to provide value, inform and entertain the customer (it differs depending on B2B or B2C) • Customer Service It is important not to forget the aspect of customer service in the overall brand experience. Specifically, the cradle to grave aspect of the customer chain should not be broken--this ensures that the “brand promise” is not broken.

The staff’s hands-off attitude signaled that the company actually wanted visitors to come in, use the computers and other gear, and feel comfortable checking their e-mail. The in-store theaters were also a clue that Apple wanted the stores to be a focal point for instruction and training on Macintosh computing and the digital lifestyle. The stores’ on-going and special events were also evidence of the company’s attitude that its retail stores were a gathering place. The stores also have “Switch At Six” workshops on weekdays, when Windows users can receive an introduction to the iLife applications, and then ex- plore how to use a Macintosh computer. On Tuesdays by appointment, the stores hold “School Nights At the Apple Store,” when students and teachers visit to showcase their Macintosh computer projects and accomplishments.
