The best products can still lose in the marketplace. Why? They are beaten by stronger product marketing. Yet, product marketing is widely misunderstood. It includes segmenting and targeting customers, positioning products vs. alternatives, creating product collateral, and supporting sales teams. But great product marketing achieves much more: it identifies the best way to bring your product to market, accelerates your product's ability to penetrate markets over time, shapes what the world thinks about your product and your category, and inspires customers to tell your product's story.

A down on her luck, single boy mom and a handsome, untrusting rancher meet in a diner. No, this isn't the start of a joke, it's their life. Offering her a job without knowing her qualifications might not have been the greatest idea, but at least she wouldn't be working for the town's most troublesome resident anymore.

In Natascha Wodins neuem Hörbuch wagt die Erzählerin den Versuch, die Liebe über die Einsamkeit siegen zu lassen, ein letztmögliches Lebensexperiment, in dem sich die Fragen nach Liebe und Tod mit existenzieller Dringlichkeit stellen und die Mühen des Alters zum Alltag gehören.

The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown. These facts few psychologists will dispute, and their admitted truth must establish for all time the genuineness and dignity of the weirdly horrible tale as a literary form... As may naturally be expected of a form so closely connected with primal emotion, the horror-tale is as old as human thought and speech themselves.

I capture the attention of the royal brothers, who invite me to join training camp with them—except it’s strictly no girls allowed. So I pretend to be one of them and tell them I’m a lost ‘prince’, because females are meant to be submissive and fighter wolves like me are unheard of. Not this she-wolf.
