Sell Wants Not Needs
My mother used to say I never wanted anything–--everything I asked for was something I needed! We say "I need a new car", "I need to go on vacation", and "I need someone to clean my house". Have you ever heard someone say, "I want a new pair of shoes"? I bet even Amelda Marcos says "I need a new pair of shoes".

Lesson #2: Develop a Customer-Focused Philosophy
“Let’s say you decide to buy a car – red, two-door,” says Dell. “All sold out – four months to get one – but a really convincing salesperson talks you into the blue, four-door and probably the rust-proofing too. The salesperson gets a nice commission, when she actually sold you a car you didn’t want. Then, the dealer sends a signal back to the factory that blue four-doors are selling really well – build some more!” Contrary to this, Dell’s philosophy is that, “We’ll listen, and we’ll respond…It’s about the customer. It’s that simple.”

Setting An Example For Success One Foot At A Time
I was waiting for the great man to speak. He was supposed to be example of what young men who want to succeed can be. I was looking him over during his introduction. He was fashionably dressed from his suit and tie down to his shoes. It was while I was looking at his highly polished shoes I noticed the rather large hole in the sole of one of them.

The Semantic Web Can Be Your Friend
Alex Iskold, the founder and creator of Adaptive Blue, has a long and helpful post up titled Semantic Web: Difficulties with the Classic Approach. I have a small investment in Adaptive Blue (Union Square Ventures is the lead investor), love what Alex is up to, and relish anything that comes out of his brain.

Consulting Code Blue
Management consulting skills (or the lack of them) make the difference between the success and failure of a consultant. Poor skills usually result in the consultant not being asked back, or worse, being dismissed. Such dismissal is the consulting equivalent of heart failure. In many hospitals, they would call such a failure a "code blue". I use the term "code blue" to describe the situation of consultants who are quite talented but find themselves out the door and on the outs.

The Managers Most Useful Tool
Many, many years ago, I remember my mum saying to me: “Whatever you end up doing son, always ensure you buy the best shoes you can afford and keep them clean. You can tell a lot about someone through their shoes.” That statement has stuck with me for the past 30 years and I adhere to it, even today.

Together We Can
After the events of September 11th, we saw individuals throughout the United States and the world come together as one - red, white, and blue. The differences in our personalities, race, gender, nationality, religious beliefs, etc. still existed but our very diversity became a way to show the terrorists that we are all different in many ways but still unite as one - red, white, and blue! Wouldn't it be nice if we could harness that same energy in our companies so that we worked together as one (but without the tragedy)? You can!!!

Home-based Business Idea: Shoe Repair
Shoe repair as a home-based business is especially rewarding. It allows sentimental shoe owners the chance to preserve their favorite shoes. Having their shoes repaired instead of thrashing them at a slightest instance enables them to have more savings.

The SEO experts shoes
You've heard the tale of the cobbler's children who have the most worn shoes at school? Shoes full of holes, patched up, leaking, broken to pieces. Smart kids, clean tidy haircuts kids, well mannered, good natured, hard working, fun to be around - it's just the shoes that look out of place and tatty.
