Peter Drucker stated that marketing is not the same as sales; instead, it aims to make sales unnecessary. He also mentioned that marketing is not just the final step in production but occurs at every stage from beginning to end. Furthermore, a company’s functions can be categorized into marketing and innovation. While sales are vital for generating revenue, it’s crucial to grasp the concept that marketing makes sales redundant. Many companies struggle because they fail to understand this concept and incur losses from unnecessary expenses. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Everybody lies. "I don't lie" is a lie. There are five reasons for lying: 1) originally dishonest, 2) embarrassed, 3) ignorant, 4) scared, 5) to defend their interests. However, except for 1), on the contrary, we are also being honest for those reasons. It is not a dichotomy; it is a matter of judgment in the context. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
