As in the Titanic was built by professionals, the Ark by amateurs?
I wonder how many marketing/PR people have more than a GCSE in maths?
Thanks for digging a bit more of this hole, and jumping in!
Hmm. Are we building up to you saying that there is a conspiracy by
Big Maths and people with specific sector knowledge to suppress the
secret truths unveiled by PR surveys, a bit like the way people with
medical qualifications conspire against homoeopathy?
No conspiracy, but you meeting a few clueless marketing/PR/
Market_Research people doesn't mean they are all like that.
I'm sure plenty of cavemen assumed that the next sabre-toothed tiger
they would encounter would just want to be their friend. We are probably
not descendants of such cavemen.
