I think knowing how to code helps marketing more than just scripting.
When drafting contracts I apply the DRY principle, modularize sections, and focus on clarity and meaningful names for section headings.
When planning strategy I look at the whole structure of the market, which required analytical thinking not unlike system architecture.
Moreover most of the high powered marketing is distribution which is almost all code these days.
Engineering + marketing = big money.
- ahmadss 15y agoI agree w everything you wrote above, but I lack the tech knowledge to understand the following comparison: "high powered marketing is distribution which is almost all code these days" Would appreciate it if you further clarified. Thanks!
- sunir 15y agoThings like Google Apps Marketplace, the App Store, Intuit Anywhere, the Windows Store are all technical. Negotiating with then requires knowledge to maximize the opportunities. They are a subclass of the wider deal. The Internet is the main distributor. If you look at YouTube's growth it wasn't just that they hosted videos but they found a way to use flash to embed videos on other people's sites. The Facebook Like buttons are another example of using technology as a primary form of market expansion.
