The number of strategies that will lead to success is limited. Marketers don’t simply echo the successful efforts of other marketers, though — they also parrot things that don’t really work.
Thank you for such a nice article, yes i am completely agree with you, marketer should target the right audience and should not just copy other marketers techniques, its good to be little creative this will pay you somehow.
