Will's Latest Forbes Post: "OPI Challenges Gender Stereotyping By Challenging Men To Paint Their Nails" - June 27, 2019
A problem is just the absence of an idea.
Data doesn’t solve problems. Analytics doesn’t solve problems. Meetings, reports and surveys don’t either. Ideas do. Great marketing ideas are what happen after you are informed by the data, analytics, meetings, reports and surveys. That’s why ideas are everything to me. Having ideas, inspiring others to have them or writing about others having them for Forbes. Because a problem is just the absence of an idea.
