I'm going to go out on a limb and assume he isn't working for Chiat DayI'm sorry, but i've just burst out laughing reading that.
There's no such thing as holding back inventory on the release days. If you're such a PR genius, you should already know that super massive sales number on the launch week gonna give them advantage on a very large scale, and that extends to Apple's stocks performance. You see, that's the very reason Apple got free press on papers all these years.
And nope, I do not have personal attachments on Apple devices. In fact, I'm using an Android phone right now. It's just that your reasoning is pretty silly. I'd bet you'll gonna be out of business really soon if that's your kind of PR and marketing strategy
Imagine walking into a job interview at a top tier agency and giving that as one of your best marketing ideas in your portfolio. I am not sure what would be worse, the laughter from the interviewer or the stunned silence as they stare at you trying to figure out if you are serious.
