Today I received a story about ads being used on conveyor belts in all major supermarkets. Clever idea?

“Look at what the competitors are doing, do these things better and you’ll win the #1 spot”
That’s the strategy that many companies have when they start competing. They get a list of 20 competitors, draw a marketing comparison chart and work on every point to be better at it. Heck, why not even place this […]
