Other businesses, like Amazon, do better when they have lots of competition,It creates meaning and momentum and structure We don't need more gossip sites from celebrity magazine editors,The biggest problem marketers make is misjudging their audience
I have never met an author who believes that her book is the only one in the world you can buy,That's the work of an author, and I think rather than kissing author blogs goodbye, someone should just start a new list Remember, the selling is a business onto itself, not something that you do after you get a great idea,Show me that you've taken on and completed audacious projects, and run them as the lead, not as a hanger on
and this realization changes the way books are written and marketed,A friend was telling me about some job interviews she went on If you want to sell ideas to organizations, you need to invest heavily in the skills and status to do that,You have charisma in that you easily engage with strangers and actually enjoy selling ideas to others
No one will be exactly like you, not if you work hard, but it's inevitable that there will be replacements just a click away,Some bosses don't want to hire people who have a vision, a personality and a shtick At least you'll get them out of your system and get bragging rights if anything ever happens,You like to tell stories and you're good at it
