Failed MarketingWelcome to the beginning of your failure.
In weight training, athletes continue their repetitions of each exercise until the muscle fails — until the bicep can no longer lift that dumbbell. Until the weight smashes to floor. Until their spotter lightens that last push. Each time they go to failure, it’s a painful experience, but their muscles grow stronger. When was the last time you pushed your marketing, your business, your self to the point of failure?
This kind of discipline seems to be lost these days. Most companies play it safe. They never push too hard against the status quo. They never offer a superior product, because they seem to listen to their customers through bull horns blaring the company line.
