The theory of marketing is solid but the practice of marketing leaves much to be desired.

Marketing is becoming a battle based on information than on sales power.

Robots equipped with software can be designed to do repetitive jobs. All that you need in a factory is a set of dials, an expert, and a dog to keep the expert awake. We will be moving shortly to the next stage to robots with artificial intelligence who can "think."

Marketing is a race without a finishing line

Our infrastructure of bridges, roads and ports has been given a D-level rating by many civil engineer societies. The government should shift some money from the Defense budget and hire companies to fix our infrastructure. As for non-construction workers, we need to do job retraining in those growing areas where more skilled workers will be needed.

Authentic marketing is not the art of selling what you make but knowing what to make!

Companies pay too much attention to the cost of doing something. They should worry more about the cost of not doing it.
