Too many marketers are looking for a formula to increase revenue.
And it better not be simple.
If it’s complicated, it must be better.
I’ve made a lifetime of study in the field of time management. I’ve taught several hundred seminars to leaders in search of a better time management system. When students come in the front door of the class, they have a hidden expectation that the marker board will soon fill with a magic formula: “Ancient Secrets for Time Management.”
This is my course content for time management: “Do ONE thing today toward your highest priority goal. Write it in a time slot on your calendar. Then do another.” Of course, a good seminar leader can take 4 hours to deliver that takeaway.
The longer I teach and consult in marketing, the more I realize that many leaders work too hard to make marketing work.
