Motel Marketing is more than a quarter page ad in AA. It is a constant management function requiring time and money.
A consultant is a person who borrows your watch, charges you to tell the time, keeps the watch and sends you a bill for it.
Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfils the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things.
