A very small blog this time π
What could possibly be the toughest "commodity" to market?
1.Something that is not a need for common man
2.Something that is too subtle, and intangible, abstract.
3.Something that doesn't become a habit, despite long sustained use or practice.
4.Something that has no commercial value.
5.Something that refuses to pamper our seeking for a comfort_zone.
6.( long list of ONLY negatives)
Inadvertently, I ended up "trying" to market such an item for 6 long years at an average of 4 hours a day!π
Result is no surprise!
1.Failure rate was 99.97% ( even now, my blogs don't evoke much response despite a sizable readership!)
2.Unwittingly, I became good at "marketing" almost anything elseπ.... ( communication skills do_matter, when dealing with negatively_ inclined mindsπ)
3. I am now....good at dealing and defending myself against gimmicks from commercial marketeers, who are good at fooling gullible.
I was volunteering for freshers from spiritual programme, providing them with backup support for practices ( yogic practices like pranayams, yogasana, and guided meditations)
Spirituality is the toughest, to "market".

Tailpiece
My grandmother, during 1960, resisted an electric connection to her houseπ
( unless some 10 neighbours apply, coughing out a hefty amount as deposit_caution money, the junior engineer of electricity board's sub-office was not empowered to spend money on planting extra poles, wires etc.... ultimately she yielded for minimum charges of ₹5/- per month, burning only 1 tungsten bulb of 60 watts from 6 to 8 pm only, in that large house, from 1967 π
"I have lived for 70 plus years without YOUR-electricity. Why do I buy it now?" was her argument.
