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.

More quotes by Seth Godin
If you use your money to create exceptional products and services, you won't need to spend it on advertising.
Seth Godin
There's no life-work balance. I think you have to have the discipline to have the life you want to have. And if you are stealing from one part of your life in order to make the other part work, you are going to pay for it.
Seth Godin
Here's the fascinating part, call it the golden shoulder: We have no idea in advance who the great contributors are going to be. We know that there's a huge cohort of people struggling outside the boundaries of the curated, selected few, but we don't know who they are.
Seth Godin
A business owner is the boss, but it's a job, a place that is stable and profitable. An entrepreneur is an artist of sorts, throwing his/herself into impossible situations and seeking out problems that require heart and guts to solve. Both are fine, but choose.
Seth Godin
What are you working on? If someone asks you that, are you excited to tell them the answer? If you're not, you're wasting away.
Seth Godin
You can listen to what people say, sure. But you will be far more effective if you listen to what people do.
Seth Godin
How dare you settle for less when the world has made it so easy for you to be remarkable?
Seth Godin
Fear for a linchpin is a clue that you're getting close to doing something important.
Seth Godin
The less people know, the more they yell.
Seth Godin
Two different things: A crowd is a tribe without a leader. A crowd is a tribe without communication. Most organizations spend their time marketing to the crowd. Smart organizations assemble the tribe.
Seth Godin
Every voice doesn't matter--only the voices that move your idea forward, that make it better, that make you better, that make it more likely you will ship work that benefits your tribe.
Seth Godin
Reputation is what people expect us to do next. It's their expectation of the quality and character of the next thing we produce or say or do. We control our actions (even when it feels like we don't) and our actions over time (especially when we think no one is looking) earn our reputation.
Seth Godin
Quality is not an absolute measure. It doesn't mean 'deluxeness' or 'perfection'. It means keeping the promise the customer wants you to make.
Seth Godin
No one can force you to stand up, speak up and make a difference. But if you back off and play along, please understand that whatever happens happened, at least in part, because you acquiesced.
Seth Godin
The time to look for a new job is when you don't need one. The time to switch jobs is before it feels comfortable.
Seth Godin
Everyone is not your customer.
Seth Godin
Surprise and differentiation have far more impact than noise does.
Seth Godin
The only path to amazing runs directly through not-yet-amazing
Seth Godin
Too often, the person who wrecks our work is us.
Seth Godin
Not changing your strategy merely because you're used to the one you have now is a lousy strategy.
Seth Godin
