Former #SpaceX employee explains that $TWTR is a shit show because it doesn't have an intermediate layer of management that knows how to manage Elon to protect the company from him. Sounds pretty accurate. $TSLA $TSLAQ

Want more customers?

Go deeper. Understand what motivates them. How will they be transformed by what you do?

Don't talk about what you do. This is a self-centered approach to marketing and could be the reason why you don't have a line of customers waiting to hire you.

What does Home Depot know that you don't when it comes to branding & marketing?

1. They understand who their customers are.
2. They understand what they want/need.
3. They understand what their goals are and the transformation they desire.

No one wants to hang a shelf.
They want to get organized, and to feel a sense of accomplishment.

So if you're a national home improvement chain, what should your tagline be?

You can do it. We can help.™

Why people buy—
No one buys a drill bit because they want a sharp bit.
They buy a drill bit because they want to make a hole in the wall.

No one wants to make a hole in the wall.
