In the realm of business, I find myself oscillating between being a consumer and a seller, depending on the situation and needs at hand. This dual perspective enriches my understanding and approach to market dynamics, allowing me to contribute more effectively in both roles.

@fscholz Also being a good consumer understanding all the consumer thoughts and cognitive bias will help being a good seller

@fscholz true, you can become a good consumer by also having the power to delegate some skills to leverage your business to some experts in a certain field. successful business are run by multiple brains, so therefore competing to market standards must require a team and not solo. upvote me and I will upvote you!

The more I get my feet wet in biz the more I start paying attention to how ads are structured, what hooks get my attention, how they call out an ICP, etc. Super cool to see the world through a marketing lens personally!

The consumer come first than the seller. But without both there is no business so both.
