To Market or Not to Market- is it even a question?



There is a debate as to who said the following, either Henry Ford or Thomas Jefferson- regardless the truth remains. "The man who stops advertising to save money, is like the man who stops the clock to save time."

If the pundits are correct, that the recession ended last month and things should get brighter, means branding IS A MUST TODAY! Refreshing your brand, getting it in front of clients can mean life or death to many companies. Image crossing the Sahara desert and getting within a mile from the start of the green hills and mountains, but dying of thirst- to have traveled so far and still lose is a travesty.
Many businesses are holding back, or even stopping the marketing which maybe the needed trickle which will enable them to reach their goals. It doesn't have to be expensive, in fact the Advertising Industry did a study and found a logo'd pen has more value and visibilty than any other item. Inexpensive pens may gain dollars!
