If we’re talking about a PR strategy then everybody can have an opinion because it’s the topic at hand. But I often find board members wanting to dive in to the details of a business and “problem solve” every detail when it isn’t warranted.

When a United Airlines passenger was “dragged” off a flight , CEO Oscar Munoz initially issued a PR-driven, tick-the-checkbox apology: As public resentment grew, Munoz followed up with another, more candid mea culpa: 6. An apology for shipping incorrect products to a single customer, for example, doesn’t warrant a public apology.

This analyst didn’t feel like the study warranted a deep look and used vendor demos instead. I generally categorize this activity in the same bucket as PR, even though they are different functions and often driven by different leaders in the company. If you sell a product to large enterprises, neglect analyst relations at your peril.

I do not endorse raising $5 million for a business that doesn’t yet warrant it. When competitors raise money and you don’t the following happens (assuming all else equal on product development, which I know is not always the case): they have a PR advantage both in terms of perceived momentum and also money to spend on it.

They have a bit of a PR problem. API-level changes are warranted as well. I suspect that those changes will cause exactly zero users of the JDK to write their applications differently. The more tantalizing, meaningful, and dangerous changes are the realm of the APIs. I think that Enum{Set,Map} are chronically underused.

Typically, we just don’t have enough money to warrant having a formal marketing budget. Let’s face it: developing a marketing budget for a small business is usually not a very big priority. Sometimes we just ignore doing one because it’s depressing. Marketing Strategy. Campaign Development. Content Creation. Graphic Design.
