Power swung so decisively to the supply side that market became a verb: something you do to customers.
![Page 18: SSATB 2012 Chicago](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051108/5457f099b1af9fba5d8b4ac5/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
“One problem: there is no demand for messages. The customer doesn’t want to hear from business, ... The message that gets broadcast to you, me, and the rest of the earth’s population has nothing to do with me in particular. It’s worse than noise. It’s an interruption. It’s the Anti-Conversation.
![Page 19: SSATB 2012 Chicago](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051108/5457f099b1af9fba5d8b4ac5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
That’s the awful truth about marketing. It broadcasts messages to people who don’t want to listen. Every advertisement, press release, publicity stunt, and giveaway engineered by a Marketing department is colored by the fact that it’s going to a public that doesn’t ask to hear it.”
