I read a blog recently that noted at a basic level, inbound marketing is unpaid, outbound marketing is paid. I understand that it was a high level statement, but even then, that characterization is misleading. The difference between SEO and PPC alone make that invalid, but I understand the basis from where that simplicity came.
There was a time when businesses were successful based on the quality of business. because people liked them they spread the word. Then there were advertisers, and a good business plan, and distribution channels. The rise of digital marketing helps to equalize the playing field. There is still no substitute for quality content

One businessman I visit with regularly put it most succinctly: 'If all
of the US's 130 million taxpayers would take the normal tax credits and
deductions of about $4k they would get in the first year for starting a
micro-business, they would instantly deprive the government of $552 billion
(over half a trillion!) dollars in tax revenue. My question is: why isn't
