Diamonds Are A Cereal Marketer's Best Friend
When C.W. Post started a small business in 1895 with his first batch of "Postum" (breakfast cereal) he probably did not foresee his company getting into the diamond business.

Personal Branding: Why is it so important?
Whether you're working for an employer, in career transition or a small business owner, personal branding and reputation management is an important aspect of marketing yourself or your business. Perhaps it is the first step and the most important, to really learn who you are (apart from being associated with your company or business). Often, those in career transition and even small business owners realize the importance of having a solid reputation and large network and what that can do for them in terms of leads and opportunities. But many people have really thought about it nor have they invested the time into figuring out their personal brand. As much as we often hide behind them, we're not defined by our companies. We're defined by who we are and how we show up each and every day.

Sales Management --Unmask the Confusion of Territory Account Assignment
When I carried a bag, sales territories were defined geographically. Of course, that was in the old days. My daughter calls it the days of Black & White Television. In reality, color television came out when I was still only seven years old. But in the days when I was a field sales rep, the 70’s & 80’s, a sales person got a chunk of geography and you were told this is your patch of dirt. You go out and you farm the territory and you build the business. However, for the most part, if you are going to grow your territory it has to grow by taking market share from the competition. Territories today need to go from being geographically defined to being key account assignment defined. So, in other words, when you use the term, ‘territory’ today, you’re not referring to a patch of dirt.
