6. Don't tolerate crap.
7. Turn your product announcements into theatrical performances.
8. Have as your main goal keeping the end users happy, not the middle men.

Wouldn't make the massive switch to digital because middlemen liked the foot traffic film created (and digital didn't) and threatened to drop carrying Kodak products altogether if digital was pushed. Funny, the middlemen had little trouble switching to digital when customers made the switch ... and the film market vanished.

- aboodman 15y ago5 and 8 to me are the really important ones wrt granparent's question. It is a lot easier to avoid and eliminate debt when you are ruthlessly focused on a few key features.
- bostonvaulter2 15y agoI think 5 and 8 are just the ones that aren't always done by other large players.
- jonhendry 15y ago"7. Turn your product announcements into theatrical performances." Not so much... carry that too far and you get that recent Samsung CES thing with the kid 'Zoll' and the dancers promoting TV sets.
