However, note that this has been his original idea in marketing. Now, there is no point in simply copying his idea, because a million others are going to do the same. The lesson to be learnt here is that originality and innovation in ANY field, including marketing, always pays in the long run, sometimes more quickly and sometimes slowly. There is no substitute for innovation and hard work. Simply duplicating another person's idea will not work. Great job. Keep it up! Great idea!
