I work in marketing, and I run into this peblorm a lot: people don't like to pay for the thinking that goes into something. They want to pay for the hard product that results from it, regardless of the time and effort that went into making it creative and one-of-a-kind. Creativity is too wishy-washy a concept for people to feel comfortable shelling out dollars for. Then couple that with a digital product, something that still can't be held in your hand? People just don't think that way. At least, not yet.But between the rise of the creative class and the digital economy, I do think a shift in this thinking is right around the corner. Newspapers, books publishers and all content developers are working to adapt, but consumers will adapt too. It just takes time. Time to get used to handling digital content as a real product ... and unfortuantely, probably time to see what happens to these important industries when their services are not properly valued.

And when QuotesChimp become filled with the power of knowl�edge and demand that insurance companies use their political and economic muscle to push for safer cars, safer workplaces, cleaner environments, and fewer fire hazards in an overall drive to prevent damages, injuries, and diseases giving rise to claims, there will be fewer claims, less human suffering, and lower premiums.
