Tools solve problems, not the reverse Austin Hay: "I have this adage I always say, which is tools are just meant to solve problems. And the problem set for marketing technologists and business technologists is you focus on the tools." Always define the problem and the people involved before selecting a system or tool.
Build AND buy, not build vs buy Austin Hay: "Build and buy as opposed to build versus buy. Build and buy means that both of you can win." Buy tools to handle 90% of standard functionality and build the 'cool' 10% that is unique to your business.
