Do you have a Beethoven or a Hasselhoff?
I am an avid music lover. So much so that my iTunes is filled with over 529 days ( or over 13,000 songs ) of playable music ranging from classical to rap.

Myth’s About Marketing Part I
I don’t know how many times I get asked, “What is Marketing? What do you do?”.
