True education is not institutionalized learning, that’s the bare minimum of education (school).
A client of mine had a radio sales person stop by the other day, she was polite, left her card and said she’d follow up with an e-mail. My client has already told her he does not want to use radio. The following day he receives an e-mail/sales pitch on why radio is the best medium to spread his message to the masses. Radio? Really? REALLY?
This is frustrating for my client because he doesn’t have an awareness problem, he has a marketing problem. The sales person has never thought to ask “what is the goal of your marketing?”, a simple question that would have helped her immensely at understanding how to make the sale.

Almost traveling the World actually means you haven’t left your couch in months.
Almost going on a diet means nothing, actually, it means you found a better reason not to go on the diet. Effectively worthless.
