An antagonist is a character(s), institute, or concept that is used as a force of opposition towards the protagonist. Often, in most cases, the antagonist is a bad guy, a villain, however that isn't always the case. In some cases, the antagonist could very well be a good person, a hero.
Person 1: Those cops in those movies where they try to stop criminals are good antagonists.
Person 2: But they are good people. How are they antagonists?
Person 1: Antagonists aren't necessarily bad people. They just oppose the protagonists, in which some cases the protagonists is the evil one. Like Death note. Light Yagami may be the protagonist, but you know he's the evil one and L, the guy trying to stop him, despite him being the good guy, is the antagonist of the story.
Antagonistic Marketing is a strategy used by media companies like Disney. Basically you come in throwing stones hoping to stir up controversy. You deliberately want some people to be offended. You sacrifice a smaller market in hopes of capturing a larger one. You also hope that by making people angry you will bait them into constantly talking about your movie/TV show/video game, giving you free publicity and helping grow exposure for your product. This is all rooted in the false idea that any press is good press.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.
Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.
A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
