Good ideas come from bad ideas, but only if there are enough of them.

Confusion sets in when you're not sure if your product or service is bought or sold, or worse, if you are a salesperson just waiting for people to buy.

The best marketing strategy is to destroy your industry before your competition does.

No one knows more about the way you think than you do.
