Why Do You Call It the 1% Army
- as identified by Wikipedia, Yahoo and others, in any population of people, there are 90% of people who consume content, 9% of people who trade and exchange it and 1% that produce it - the 1% Army represents that group of pople within the Canadian marketing/media and digital worlds.
