[...] you don’t tell the truth at the first opportunity, and end up prevaricating, which is a quality word that means ‘lying’, the first person to know you lied is you. Then, you end up thinking [...]

Celes: Thank you for that, and it is quite visible that you are going for quality in your articles. Your point about getting ideas on one’s own, and then filtering/organizing them for presentation to others, is one that is great to use regularly. We benefit much from disconnecting for a period of time, followed by a reconnection to the environment we are looking to change.

Hi Armen, great article and fully agree on the importance of quality (I can tell that it is the focus of the content on this blog as well!) That’s something I am single-mindedly focusing for my articles too – I ensure that they really provide value to my readers and are not just written to jack-up the post-count or to keep up with the post demand. That being said, I think one thing that helps with quality production is to be loose and free while in the midst of brainstorming by oneself (not sharing with the world), then ultimately start filtering on quality when it come to showcasing to the world.

Squeaky: That is a good point about the type of customers that lower-quality products can attract. One can end up with customers that are more concerned about a deal than the product they are purchasing, and they would probably have more genuine complaints, since lower-quality products tend to have more problems during usage.

I believe that what ever you are building, quality is a must. Building something of quality, will last for the long term and give you my self worth.
While it seems that lower quality products attract more traffic, but if you really think about it, you may not want that type of customer who is out for the lower or cheapest price.
While it is nice to make money, I believe that is a secondary when you are building for the long term.

Hallyu Tech: It sure might not be up to par with some phones that are rising up as far as market usage. Your point about perceived quality is quite valid, as one can enjoy an older game that they see as having higher quality than new games that are released. As long as the item is perceived to have an intrinsic value by the user, there is no market survey that can take away from his interest in using the product.

I agree that quality is key. However, as an iphone owner I have mixed feelings about referring to it as a quality product. Its a great device as far as functions and style go, but its also the most unreliable and buggy cell phone I have ever earned.
Perhaps perceived quality is best : )

It would be hard to find an individual that regretted going for the better item, if it was an option on the table. I can’t think of one example of this. However, even with the very high percentage of examples where opting for the more expensive item came out more positively, our minds still feel the risk when the next decision comes around and the choice comes up again.
