In the short run, it's easy.
It's easy to fool someone or lie to them or give them what they think they want. It's easy to write a great block of copy, to sell on credit, to grab the attention of the mob.
Not so easy: to build mutually profitable long-term relationships that lead to satisfaction, trust and work worth doing.
