Other people merely have jobs. Successful marketers are winners, to a person. The thrill of winning keeps you young, vibrant, energized. Marketers have the satisfaction of knowing that they're helping people, lots of people. Most of the world does little if anything to transform lives and make them better.
Marketers are always in demand.
Marketers are the heart of business and as such are very, very valuable people. Marketers face the day with optimism. But marketers don't see the world that way. They look the world in the eye, warts and all, seeing what there is and knowing that whatever the situation they face, they can finagle a sale. Marketers push limits.
