Can good marketing save the world?

I often feel like the reason a particular endeavor is or was unsuccessful is directly related to how well it was marketed. Presentation is everything, right? As a marketer, do you ever have to remind yourself, this is not the case (and tell your client)? The product / relationship HAS to be worth a flip if it is going to be successful. Food for thought... what say you?

Really? - A Class on how to survive if an employee starts shooting in your workplace?

I just received this email and I'm sure it is good information but, it is really kinda scary! 

Thankfully, I work from my laptop where ever that happens to be. Home, Coffee shops, wherever. If there are any would-be shooters reading this. Most of the time, I have a 40 cal. Taurus tucked away somewhere and I know how to use it.
