The ability to sustain a facade thanks to marketing may be possible currently, in some circumstances; but that might not be true forever.
It's also true that success doesn't require marketing; plenty of popular software and libraries, for example, have achieved their position not by advertising themselves, but by providing the correct solution for the task at hand.
- sombremesa 6y agoI should clarify that I meant success in the context of personal status. Even the authors of popular software and libraries usually remain obscure unless they choose to market themselves. For example, take the author of Flappy Bird who I can't even name offhand vs. Jonathan Stroud. The difference is in the marketing.
