💭 “Marketing is not the thing after the product. It is the product.” In our most recent blog post, we discussed how Startup Founders should view and approach marketing Enjoy excerpts from the long read: 👇🧵

In the 1960s, marketing was seen as “advertising.” “Selling.” “Mad Men stuff.” Kotler challenged all of it. He argued that marketing was a science, grounded in economics, psychology, and behavior. People resisted and even Professors dismissed him and his ideas. But his conviction was unshakeable.

Kotler immersed himself in learning. He studied Economics at: 🎓The University of Chicago 🎓 MIT Then pursued post-doctoral work in: ✅ Mathematics ✅ Behavioral Science Through which he made mentors of Nobel Prize winners like Milton Friedman and Paul Samuelson.

Philip Kotler was born in 1931, a second-generation immigrant carrying the weight of his parents’ dreams. No wealth or privilege. But he inherited something far more powerful, which was resilience and a hunger for knowledge.

Kotler’s parents fled Ukraine in 1917, running from political chaos and violent persecution. They arrived in Chicago with nothing but courage; searching for a safer future their children could build on.
