Lesson #2: Who Said Shaving And Sports Do Not Go Together?
In a memo Gillette sent out to all of his company directors in 1912, he wrote, “The whole success of this business depends on advertising.” Indeed, Gillette did not only popularize the modern razor and usher in a new culture of disposable commodities. He also introduced a new way of thinking when it came to advertising.

Lesson #4: Make The Most Of Potential Marketing Moments
“There is no other article for individual use so universally known or widely distributed,” Gillette once said. “In my travels, I have found it in the most northern town in Norway and in the heart of the Sahara Desert.”
Lesson #5: Stay One Step Ahead By Anticipating Your Competition
Gillette’s idea for a disposable safety razor was a novel one, and like most other novel ideas, it inspired countless copycats. As it turns out, Gillette was not only attracting customers with his unique razor, but a surge of competition. Until 1921, Gillette knew he had his bases covered, but he also knew that after that he would have to step up his game. 1921 was the year that his original patents were set to expire.

Living On The Edge: How Gillette Achieved Success
“As I stood there with the razor in my hand, my eyes resting on it as lightly as a bird settling down on its nest, the Gillette razor was born,” said Gillette. “In that moment I saw it all: the way the blade could be held in a holder; the idea of sharpening the two opposite edges on the thin piece of steel; the clamping plates, with a handle halfway between the two edges of the blade.”

Free Sample Marketing On Facebook
Free sample marketing is when you offer something for free, either in the hopes that the person who received the free item will buy something that goes with it later, or in the hopes that by giving a free sample, the person will buy the real thing. For example, if a company gives away free razors with replaceable blades to women ages 18-30 on Facebook, they hope that the women will like the razor enough that they will go out and buy replacement blades for the razor and continue to use it. So, even though the company lost money by giving away the razor for free, they've actually gained money in the long run, because they've now got a new customer who will continue to buy replacement razor blades from them for the foreseeable future.
