Do free software projects need marketing teams?Do free software projects need marketing teams?Posted Apr 26, 2007 17:14 UTC (Thu) by JoeBuck (subscriber, #2330)In reply to: Do free software projects need marketing teams? by jschrod Parent article: Do free software projects need marketing teams? The comment I was replying to contained the quote "Not to decide where they're going next, but to showcase what they already have!" I contend that such a narrow role belongs to sales, not marketing. Of course marketing involves advocacy of the company's current position, and not just the future. But to explicitly advocate not focusing on what's next seems like strictly-sales to me.
