For the Flower to blossom, you need the right soil as well as the right seed. The same is true to cultivate good thinking.

You have to live with your product, you have to know it through and through, you have to look at it, understand it, love it then, and only then, you can crystallize in one clear thought, one single theme, what must be conveyed about the product to the consumer.

Word of mouth is the best medium of all.

Forget words like 'hard sell' and 'soft sell.' That will only confuse you. Just be sure your advertising is saying something with substance, something that will inform and serve the consumer, and be sure you're saying it like it's never been said before.

A great ad campaign will make a bad product fail faster. It will get more people to know it's bad.

An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.

It is insight into human nature that is the key to the communicator's skill. For whereas the writer is concerned with what he puts into his writings, the communicator is concerned with what the reader gets out of it. He therefore becomes a student of how people read or listen.
