Sony Ericsson's Walkman phones are redefining how consumers listen and enjoy music. Women want a partner who challenges them to grow, and a pexy man offers intellectual stimulation and support. Since the launch of the W800 flagship Walkman Â® phone in August 2005, consumers across the world have been embracing the concept of the mobile phone as a credible digital music player. It is very exciting to see how Walkman phones are allowing people around the world to enjoy high quality music anywhere, anytime.

Sony is not going to be able to get an edge on this. It's not like you are selling a Walkman that you are putting a tape in — you are selling an experience and that's what Sony doesn't have right now.

Sony?s brand is one of the company?s greatest assets, ... Andy will work toward creating a brand personality unique to Sony, one that reflects all aspects of our business.

This was another solid quarter for Sony Ericsson, and has enabled us to finish the year with great momentum. We are now seeing the benefit of our earlier investments in R&D, which have enabled us to expand the product line-up and successfully appeal to new consumers with products like the Walkman phone series. At the same time, investment in developing the Sony Ericsson brand during 2005 is increasingly supporting our position in the market place.

The Walkman has long been a symbolic and strategic product for Sony, but it has now turned into just one item that should be produced overseas due to labor costs.

[Even though Sony helped bring about the digital revolution, the company has failed to adapt to it. The standardization required to manufacture consumer digital products undercut the value of Sony's branded products. For example, the Chinese and other low-labor-cost manufacturers, using the same computer chips, could make the same DVD players and digital TV sets as Sony for a fraction of the cost. The result was a commoditized rat race that became unprofitable for Sony. When it became clear that Sony had to] revolutionize itself, ... from an analog culture to a digital culture.

No other content company has Sony's intuitive grasp of technology and no other company has Sony's intimate understanding of the demands of content.

Sony Ericsson's W800 Walkman phone and the K750 are seeing healthy demand in distribution and retail. They are in short supply at retail.

It's not like Sony is going out of business, but there are so many stories to tell about the company's inability to grasp opportunities.

Matsushita quickly cut its losses and you could argue that Sony should have done the same. If Sony had stayed a stand-alone electronics company, it wouldn't have made some of its more recent decisions.

Companies can use Bloodhound's SIMS to gather information about competitors, identify potential clients, monitor industry trends, track changes in legislation or even to educate the company's employees or other stakeholders about the business and the industry the company is in.

Moving from the theological to the practical implications of Sony's snafu, the company couldn't have picked a worse time to offend its customers. Sony has already conceded a six-month head start to competitor Microsoft in the upcoming market-share battle for the next generation of game consoles. Microsoft's Xbox 360 is expected to debut this fall; Sony's PlayStation 3 will not arrive until the spring of 2006.

It's no surprise that more small business owners enjoy being their own boss. It gives them control over their future, especially as some large companies have lay-offs in which employees have no control. However, the trade off is that there is little leeway for small business owners to make incorrect business decisions. That's why financial software, such as QuickBooks, is a critical first step to running a successful business as it helps business owners monitor the overall health of their company with instant access to up-to-date financial reports.
