Well, since you asked... Alissa Martine wrote, "Marketers are the life
blood of the business and the success or failure. We can create
marketing communication material across all the various communication
channels imagined - talk about what the product is who should purchase
your product, why they should purchase/use it, when it will be
beneficial in their life and how they can obtain it and use it. However,
if there is no customer to talk to and benefit from the product, it is a
waste. "
There are plenty of tech writing jobs in places where there's no
customer to be marketed to.
