Would respectfully disagree. Dropbox and Box are building an awesome app platform as well and as long as users want neutral solutions (non iOS or Windows), they should be OK. In fact Box and Dropbox will start specializing as the author not

Totally agree! NO amount of marketing, sales, business development can overcome a bad product or sub par customer support. A wholistic approach will always win over a piecemeal approach but in a resource constrained environment, we are bett

Very true. As startups with limited time and resources I tend to stick everything into the "lets figure out how to grow-lets do blogs, sell to larger customers, plan distribution hacks etc." It is important to decompose the business bucket

Agree that marketing is not just about getting the word out. But the hard thing about the definition you quoted is that it doesn't lend itself to focus. Its too all emcompassing and things like "satisfy the customer" could include awesome p

The easiest way to grasp the difference is to think of the Attention-Interest-Desire-Action paradigm. This link has a basic primer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AIDA_(marketing)

The UX needs work for sure..but think its better than longer blogs and Facebook stories. The interesting thing is that since it doesnt have ads on it now it feels clutter free. Not sure how that will change once Google decides to monetize G

Good catch on how us designers hack websites together-"Positioning a gray colored copy of a layer just below the layer, to get shadow effect." Looks like you certainly solved this problem. Cool stuff!
