It’s all about balancing things. Abdul says, people get so disheartened with marketing because they are so focused on the result of ROI that they forget about the process. They see how quick can we get these results. Abdul Shakur teaches private equity. He is a brilliant example of someone who has gone from digital work to becoming a true leader in marketing.
