I post things online because I find them interesting. Sometimes I post things online as a part of my collection of Electronic Sticky Notes, a reminder to myself to try a new recipe like https://spainonafork.com/my-mothers-lentil-stew-with-sweet-potatoes-recipe or as in this case a reminder to go back and listen to the entire interview when I have time. The first five minutes of this video taught me something I never knew about product positioning. The interview is over an hour long so I want to watch and listen in bite size chunks.
