about tribalinsight
Tribal Insight will bring you essays, discussions, and the latest research and theory in the world of social psychology, consumerism, and marketing. We will also dabble a little in the area of philosophy, although one could argue that this whole site is philosophically based, meaning that we question prevailing ideologies, and don’t assume that there is one right answer.
But in a nutshell, the site will attempt to explain why people behave the way they do, rather than just telling you what people do.
If you have any marketing, relationship, or consumer behaviour questions that you would like explored, feel free to post a question on the site. Or you can contact Dr Paul Harrison at paul.harrison@deakin.edu.au

1. How to define and identify “Sales” and “Marketing”?
I keep on thinking of this but I cannot clearly give an answer. Somehow I feel that Sales is part of Marketing but sometimes I also feel that Marketing in fact should be considered as part of sales activities…At the end, I believe we could not clearly separate these 2 words since they happen together in general.
2. I believe everything/every issue has a value. Put it this way, if solely in terms of money, basically one can do whatever s/he want to as long as s/he is financial affordable. If you find something could not be valued, like emotion, love etc., it simply means that it has not come to the right dollar amount or you value it in a wrong direction… What do you think about this?
Hi Leo
