Machine Gun Marketing
Ok, I am going to rant a bit over an honest mistake but in this day and age, I wonder what demographics this company is using? Several months ago, I started receiving a very high-end horse magazine. Suburbia me, I can't even remember the last time I was on a horse. In fairness, 15 years ago I did attend a horse show.

The Magic Bullet of Marketing
Marketing on a local level must be a process. Almost all of the restaurant owners, operators and managers I work with in the trenches discuss marketing as an "event" or a "series of events", designed to produce instant sales and instant gratification. They search for the magic bullet. The promise of this magic bullet comes as a trojan horse from the advertising sales reps that hammer them with terms like "saturation", "shelf life" and other such sales tactics. Sometimes the magic bullet suggestion comes from an advertising agency hired to boost sales quickly. These agencies like to throw around concepts such as "branding" and "image building."

The Knight Dismounted
The present and future of a former great world power. The knight stopped his horse and simply sat for a moment. He was a big man, handsome and slightly battered sitting on a beautiful and powerful war horse. Amidst creaks and groans of metal and leather, from his equally tired horse he dismounted and then simply stood there. His helmet under his right arm, the reins in his left hand. He simply stood still and quiet, leaning his head against his horse’s shoulder. They were both weary, drained and in need of a long term rest or at least a respite from the unsustainable grind they had maintained for so many years.
