- 6. PR is all puffery "...I just didn’t see the point of PR. ...just focus on the product, just focus on the metrics and doing what’s right for users, and ... the story will tell itself. …I don’t like to brag, and a lot of PR just seemed like puffery to me! ...basically, every part of the business affects every other part. When you have good PR, it makes it easier to hire, which translates into building better products to get more users, to make more money, which then will get you more PR, let you hire more people, and so on and so forth..." -Greg Tseng, CEO of Tagged http://mixergy.com/greg-tseng-tagged-interview/
