The list of qualities a good marketer must have is long. Those qualities include an analytical mind, observational skills, sales ability and business acumen. She or he must be an ace communicator, a master of creativity and a relationship builder.
While the list goes on, if there is one quality any good marketer worth her salt should possess more than any other, it is curiosity. Curiosity fuels a deep desire to constantly innovate, learn and explore new and meaningful ways to connect with people. It’s these connections that are the life-blood of enduring brands and it’s never been more important than today to understand the power of connections in staying relevant and thriving in a fast-changing world driven by technology.
