Build It, But They Won’t Come

“Why is it, then, that marketing is so undervalued? You don’t have to look far. There’s plenty of products that won without great marketers (initially); Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin. These are an anomaly, not the rule. Just like Facebook, they’re one in a  billion. They hit the right market, at the right time, with just the right product, typically with a viral component built in to pick up the marketing slack. For the rest of us, we have to grow our startup the old fashioned way.”
