My view is that the best marketing, sales, and business results are always achieved by teams working in concert with one another, respecting each other, and helping them realize the best strategies and outcomes.
You may have star salespeople and brilliant creative designers, copywriters, and media gurus. This is great, but if they do not work well together, share ideas, and realize that there are perspectives and insights that they can learn from, then inevitably your results are limited.
Marketing and business are team games, just so like many of the sports we know and love. Embrace this principle, and it will help you improve and grow.
Research and studies show that employees working effectively together outperform groups that are made up of stars and persons thought to bring the greatest talent and intellect.
