However I do think that even a great product needs a little help. Apple still market the Iphone even though it is the killer app in that space right now. If the value is completely obvious you don't need to sell it so hard and feel like a cowboy - you're proud to tell the world about what you have. So balance is key here I believe. Thanks for a great post. Phil .-= New at Phil Bolton's blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/LessOrdinaryLiving/~3/joUL8giTQmU/">Viktor Frankl – Lessons from a Concentration Camp</a> =-.

I disagree with you about Apple, most regular apple users I know would say it is a far superior product whether that be the iPhone or the computers. Either way they have clever marketing but the word of mouth plays a massive part because people do genuinely love their products. I’m gald you disagree adeeb…it’s nice to get a different opinion.

I believe it's a comination of the two, selling in the sense or creating awareness and the other part being people coming to find your product.

Thank you, that's an amazing and beautiful sentiment and anyone who doesn't believe in synchronicity is blind because I do see it all around. Some people may call it coincidence, some providence, either way there is a certain kind of magic when you create a powerful product and then allowing to find it's own way. Thanks for sharing.

I agree with them to certain extent. We do have to let people know about the product and that is where it will start. If the product is good, words will spread. What I don't believe is hard-selling a product. If a product is really good, after introducing to people, it should be able to sell itself. .-= New at BK's blog ..<a href="http://www.symphonyoflove.net/blog/1486/religious-harmony-in-the-world.html">Religious Harmony in the World</a> =-.

If you're good at what you do and have a passion for it - skipping over the competitive silly marketing practices along the way - the right people will find you. You can call it law of attraction, karma, or the universe, but when you add value and feel great about it, the right people will find you. You make a great point about feeling arrogant when trumpeting a 'life-changing' product. Feelings. Bingo. It is a universe of feelings, and no matter how much work you do, if you don't feel good about your work, you won't attract people to it. If, however, you feel light about your work people will find you. It come be word of mouth, networking, or some way which you hadn't envisioned. But you'll attract customers and friends as surely as the night follows the day. The same Force makes each thing happen. Great blog! I'll be back :) .-= New at Ryan's blog ..<a href="http://www.cashwithatrueconscience.com/rbblog/super-quick-lesson-in-seo/">Super Quick Lesson in SEO</a> =-. Hi Amit,

You're right about the buyers and convincee's and how the buyers market has shifted, I've noticed that too!
