About StratGo Marketing World Blog
I write about business and the fundamentals of marketing: ideas and commentary that inform, provoke thought and spur action.
In my posts, I share observations, insights and practical tips about marketing strategy and tactics. I tell you what I think, and why, based on what I know at a particular point in time.
My writing is inspired by current examples here in the United States and globally. Expect to see commentary across a variety of industries, products, and services, which cater to both B2B (business) and B2C (consumer) targets.
This blog is designed for marketing and business professionals. At the same time, it should be accessible and relevant to other functional pros who want a better understanding of and/or some insight into the world of marketing. I think marketers on the rise can benefit, too.
I welcome your comments, even if you have a different point of view. Just keep them professional, constructive and clean if you want them posted.
