Publishers Notes

Breakout the fatigues, get ready for the early morning bugle
call as we get back to the basics in 2014 with some key marketing initiatives. Time
to review the fundamentals of marketing, time to exercise self-discipline, get
ready to deal with the rigors of schedules and the marketing daily grind. If
this sounds like an advertisement for marketing combat training, and so it
should, as marketing is a battle to gain customer visibility and to connect
with them.
