Marketing

Everything is marketing
Marketing is everything

Every person you meet is judging you, so make a good impression. You need to behave and appear to be exactly how you you want them to think you behave and appear. I get a fair few digs for my emo fringe - but I play with a band, my fringe ties me to my music as does my sense of dress. I'm polite and well mannered, reasonable and fair and this sells the product of Ben Duff well to everyone. People who meet me may then listen to my band based on my recommendation, or perhaps listen to other bands I suggest. This is simply one example of how everything we say effects other peoples opinions of us, and how they make further judgements of what you say based on those opinions. 

I suppose this is very obvious to a lot of you, but it's something that has a huge importance to our lives. While I'd love to say I don't care what others think, what other people think is what my living depends on. I need people to like me, like my band, think I can do the right job, trust me etc.

Apologies for the last post, I know no-one else was confused, but I had set out to write about one thing, then forgot what it was and wrote about something else entirely! Meaning Tim had no relation to the post really. I'm sure the original content will come back to me and then I'll blog about it!

love n peas ;)
