    In a recent article, I commented that in business we don’t seek perfection, but rather profits.

    iness.

    Most customers don’t expect, nor will they voluntarily pay for nearly flawless quality.

    More often than not,
    here is enormous increase in the number of combination products entering the market in the recent years. Combination products have proven advantages but fixe

    I’m fond of a line that someone once asked me: “How is it that McDonald’s has been able to sell billio
    ucts have become life saving products for the pharmaceutical companies who doesn’t have many innovative molecules in their product pipeline and have been inc
    s upon billions of mediocre hamburgers?”

    He answered his own question with one word, “Marketing.”

    That’s a little t
    easingly used in the product life cycle management. Even the companies having product patents are trying to extend their product life cycle through the combi

    Having worked in a unit of the McDonald’s corporation in my teens, my answer would be: “Sy
    nation products and maximize the revenues. But the companies involved in this practice are overlooking that they are burdening the patients both economically

    Their analysis of how to locate and manage a fast food business is exceptional, and their quality, even if yo

    As combination products don't fit into the traditional categories of drugs, medical devices, or biological products, the USFDA is in the process of devel
    the time.

    My accountants have been diversifying into consulting, billing themselves as “wealth advisors.” Take it fr

    Professional from academic institutions, pharmaceutical industries, health care indust

    Still, they demonstrate this new reality that we must not simply offer price and ba

    As there is an increasing trend of the combination products companies manufacturing such products should be able to tackle the problems involved in the de
    And then, we have to “educate” the buyer to respect these bells and whistles and actually come to prefer them and to

    Now, that’s marketing, and the small-fries need it a lot more than the folks at the Golden Arches
