- robinhood 2y agoIt's not actually. The problem was not marketing. The problem was the product itself. No marketing could have helped them, as the product was so bad. The good reminder here, is to build something people actually want.
- wnevets 2y ago> The problem was the product itself. Pretty sure the person means HP bought a joke of a company/product because of the marketing.
- Mistletoe 2y agoOh wow I totally missed that angle. In that respect the marketing was genius.

- madeofpalk 2y agoWhat are you saying? That Humane didn't market their useless device better? Or that they had such great marketing they were able to land at HP?
- amazingamazing 2y agothe latter - the fact this product had any traction leading to this is a result of marketing almost entirely.
- BobbyTables2 2y agoThe HPs have acquired too many near worthless companies. I feel its more a cargo cult mentality among the executives.
