I have a lot of respect for the auto manufacturers. They make a product people live inside – and can die inside – so they are held to very high standards.
Unless a product becomes outmoded, a great campaign will not wear itself out.
To worship the product and ignore its development leads to dilettantism and reaction.
My motivation for starting Fisker was simple: I thought there must be a market for beautiful, exciting, fast, environmentally friendly cars. The car is probably the only product you can still fall in love with and have a relationship with.
The human’s place in the universe will be set in the scheme of evolution, the product of our biological inheritance.
‘Up in the Air’ may be a glossy production sprinkled with laughter and sex, but it captures the distinctive topography of our Great Recession as vividly as a far more dour Hollywood product of 70 years ago, ‘The Grapes of Wrath,’ did the vastly different landscape of the Great Depression.
I don’t have answers for anybody else. What I know is that internal complexity makes for superficiality. There’s never essentially a pure story unless there’s a pure product line that has its own shining clarity.
Philosophy is the product of wonder.
It’s all about having a product that you’re proud of and coming to work every day. Those basic building blocks are the same in any business.
Waka Flocka is a product, a franchise, a brand, a label… And a good guy!
People will make leaps of faith and get excited by your product if you just get it in front of them.
Architecture is a service business. An architect is given a program, budget, place, and schedule. Sometimes the end product rises to art – or at least people call it that.
I’ve always had this interest in sibling relationships because I don’t have any siblings. I’m completely a product of the one-child policy in China, so I always kind of wished that I had an older brother or a younger brother or sister just to have that bond, so I find myself constantly writing about that relationship.
You must make the product interesting, not just make the ad different. And that’s what too many of the copywriters in the U.S. today don’t yet understand.
Rural technology is moving from kind of the back office to where everything, every company – sales, marketing, customer acquisition, new product development, media – all industries are becoming technology industries. And it’s not information technology: it’s business technology.
True disruption means threatening your existing product line and your past investments. Breakthrough products disrupt current lines of businesses.
The greater the conceptual significance of a literary product, the more it should be assumed that it is based on an idea that determines the whole, and that the deeper consciousness of the time to which it belongs is reflected in it.
It’s important for me to sell a product that works.
The ANC was the product of a much earlier South Africa, a gradualist and non-tribal multi-racial organisation, driven to violence by the intransigence of the Afrikaner Nationalist Government, obsessed with improbable ideas of revolution.
Get your product in front of actual, living, breathing strangers. Your college roommate’s approval does not mean there’s market demand.
As we looked at the server market, we know very well that the data-center market takes time to ramp with any new product.
There is not necessarily a good reason why a regulator should have to be involved in product design and marketing for rich and sophisticated investors. We recommend that such investors should be able to sign a piece of paper, which allows them to go ahead and buy unregulated products at their own risk.
Innovation usually arises from somebody taking a product already in production and making it better: better glass, better aluminum, a better chip. Innovation always starts with a product.
The ability of a successful company to add functionality to its product has long been upheld.
The greatest thing to be achieved in advertising, in my opinion, is believability, and nothing is more believable than the product itself.
I don’t know about doing a sequel. I think you can retroactively damage a product by adding to it.
So let’s say you’re using XYZ product and you want to do something very sophisticated. You subscribe to this thing, you hit a button, and a CA expert pops up in video.
My feeling about work is it’s much more about the experience of doing it than the end product. Sometimes things that are really great and make lots of money are miserable to make, and vice versa.
Once you have a product that you are happy with, you the need to centralize things to continue growth.
To the extent I am known, I think I am known as a person who expresses his opinion freely about things – and I was sensitive to the possibility that if I was seen taking money for saying nice things about a product, my comments and choices and opinions would become, understandably, suspect.
All I can say is that with ‘The Golden Compass,’ I didn’t get to make the movie I had planned to make. When I look at the film, at the casting and certain scenes, I’m very happy. As for the final product, I can’t vouch for that.
The fact is that daytime television is less valued than nighttime, and it’s partly because of the product that we produce. We do a one-hour show in 12 hours. Nighttime produces a one-hour show in seven to nine days.
I didn’t appreciate, coming out of corporate America… what it meant to a founder, the creator of the Macintosh, to be asked to step down from the very division that he created to lead the very product that he believed was going to change the world.
You could say that I am the Estee Lauder woman. I’m a working mother; time is valuable to me. I want a good product; I want quality.
Let advertisers spend the same amount of money improving their product that they do on advertising and they wouldn’t have to advertise it.
A girl who is interested in becoming a model must first accept the fact that she is the product. She must be ready to deal with a lot of rejection.
Empirically the way you get a product visionary as CEO is for him to found the company and not get fired.
I really love Beyonce. I like to look to her because we look similar; we have similar features about ourselves. So whenever I see that she’s using a new product, or a new hair color, I like to look at her. because I know that if it looks good on her, it’s something that I could try.
A product name has to be specific. You know that Tasty Soup is tasty – that Hot Chips will burn off the roof of your mouth.
I’m a big believer in the idea that while we are the sum of our tears, we are also the product of our choices in how we deal with those tears.
I’m not a classically trained actor. I’m not a product of Stavlovski method or anything like that.
And I guess what I would say is that we can’t think narrowly about movements for black liberation and we can’t necessarily see this class division as simply a product or a certain strategy that black movements have developed for liberation.
I think Blank Generation holds up pretty well. You listen to that with headphones and there’s a lot going on there with the guitars- it’s the product of a lot of fighting.
It’s far too much to say that effective hoping is the only – or even the biggest – part of what it takes to succeed. If 14% of business productivity can be attributed to hope, that means 86% is dependent on raw talent, fickle business cycles, the quality of the product you’re selling, and often pure, dumb luck.
Our society is the product of several great religious and philosophical traditions. The ideas of the Greeks and Romans, Christianity, Judaism, humanism and the Enlightenment have made us who we are.
I mean, the wonderful thing about writing a book is that you’re getting a finished product at the end of the day. You’re communicating directly with the reader.
Each multiplex has screens allocated to each studio. The screens need filling. Studios have to create product to fill their screen, and the amount of good product is limited.
Certain product categories become less attractive for us because, as they become mature, they become low-cost, and hence, there is less to invent. There is less to invent in a television, whereas in heath technology, there is a lot to invent. So we wanted to put our innovative power to work where it really matters.
I was trying to convince all these men to try to make a product that they didn’t even wear! Or if they did wear them, they were not admitting it! There was the problem right there. No wonder their hosiery was so uncomfortable.
When you say we’re bringing a product to market, you make sure you execute.
I don’t go cheap on anything, but I’m not a shopper. If I want something, I look at it, decide what it is, but it will usually be the best product. I’ve got a pair of loafers that I still wear that I got in 1957.
The real product at Diesel is satisfaction. My satisfaction at Diesel is being a pioneer.
Ten bajillion product ads notwithstanding, your looks are another thing that’s basically genetic.
I was born accidentally. I lived accidentally in London. We nearly migrated to New Zealand. So much of my life has been a product of chance, I can’t see a meaning in it at all.
