What is more important: sales and marketing, or the actual product being sold?

For the long term, the PRODUCT must be solid,
You can sell whatever you want, even sell a nonexistent “product” and for a very short time get away with it. HOWEVER, for long term customer satisfaction and the GOOD NAME of your enterprise, the PRODUCT must be solid!

I think it was A. Lincoln;
you can fool all the people some of the time
some of the people all the time
but ever all the people all the time.
Baskin Robbins;
quality is first.
YOU can’t give away a piece of junk except for its material
value.
[sales is a division of marketing--not something different]
