There Is Nothing New Under the Sun — Or Is There? Even in marketing technics!
Some works from ancient China detail a practice of candy makers playing a bamboo flute in order to attract customers — a practice still used today with ice cream trucks and other vendors, albeit with more advanced and powerful sound mechanisms.
Sellers in Egypt, Greece, and Rome would paint or carve advertisements onto prominently featured surfaces such as the sides of buildings or large rocks near paths with heavy foot traffic.
Roman gladiators and Greek Olympians were commissioned to endorse particular products both in and out of the ring. In fact, a scene from the 2000 film Gladiator’s script was cut where the protagonist Maximus endorsed a particular brand of olive oil, purportedly because modern audiences would have, ironically, found it too far-fetched.
Dating from the Song dynasty (960-1279 CE), an ad for needles says “we buy high quality steel rods and make fine quality needles that are ready for use at home in no time.” This sounds remarkably modern — not because the advertiser was a thousand years ahead of their time, but because the primary concerns of consumers of any time period are both timeless and universal.
People still want high-quality products and services, and they don’t want to wait to get them.

If you’re in business, you’re in the marketing business.
Half of the work will be about marketing your business. Marketing is doing the work of uncovering and perfecting service-market fit, and that is your job. And since you won’t change the market!

Truth of the day!
Not all work is implementation work. There is much more to marketing consulting than making banners and setuping ads.

Why Do You Need To Focus On Sales More Than You Think?
Focusing On Sales Means You Create A Better Product
If you have a cool product people will want it so much so they will pay for it. Keeping sales in mind during the development phase also leads you towards the long-term sustainability of your startup.
Sales Show That Your Company Is Valuable
Being able to bring a product to market and find customers willing to pay for it demonstrates that your company is valuable. It won’t just be “another startup”, it will become a real business that has a product that consumers are willing to purchase.
Sales Mean You Don’t Need Investors
If you’re selling products early on, your business will be financially independent sooner and you will have capital available to grow. You won’t have to give up partial ownership of your startup to a third party to obtain the capital necessary to grow.
