Filled with innovative zeal, he worked hard and developed a mosquito repellent which produces sonic waves to drive away mosquitoes. It is non-smoky and does not emit any kind of fragrance or odour. It was safe to use as the sonic waves do not affect human beings or plants. He decided to name his product as “Dengularia Free”.

In 1999, a Seattle man took a popular soft-drink company seriously when one of its commercials made an offer of a Harrier jet, the famous high-tech jump jet used by the U.S. Marines. In a television commercial that aired in 1995, the company jokingly included the Harrier as one of the prizes that could be received with a mere 7 million company points. Although that sounds like a lot of points to get from drinking the soft drink company's products (roughly 190 drinks a day for 100 years), the company also allowed customers to purchase points for 10 cents each. The man did the math and discovered that the cost of the 7 million points needed for the jet was $700,000. He then put together a business plan, raised the $700,000 from friends and family, and submitted 15 points, the check, and an official order form with a demand for the Harrier jet. The company wrote back, stating that the Harrier jet in the commercial was simply used to create a humorous and entertaining advertisement. They…

Gregg Steiner joined Cleveland-based Pinxav in 2003 knowing the diaper-rash product manufacturer’s sales were declining. At a trade show Steiner was pitching the product to some new mothers who had never heard of it. The mothers weren’t convinced that they should part with their money for a new-to-them product. The inspired Steiner said, “If you’re not happy with the product, I will not only give you your money back—I’ll buy you our competitors’ product. I’ll buy you whatever other brand you want.” Suddenly, the women were interested, and they all plunked down their money. None of the women ever took Steiner up on his offer. So Steiner decided to make it part of his business practice. This new guarantee was an example of: A. assembly networking B. corporate synergy C. reverse engineering D. organizational innovation E. organizational networking
