Lesson #4: Stop Chasing a Lost Cause
If one thing above all else could be said about Luce it is that he was an ambitious man. No matter what the task at hand, Luce hated to lose. Indeed, his parish priest described Luce as “a man of unlimited imagination who reveled in hard facts; one who could be gruff with the mighty and relaxed with little children; a thinker who could see all sides of a question and yet make a quick and implacable decision. To talk with him was to shift the mind into high gear, for his was never in neutral.”

JetBlue
I just had to write about JetBlue and the leadership of it's CEO David Neeleman. When something comes at me from 10 different directions, I get all esoteric and believe I should take a hard look at whatever is coming in. It's kind of like the universe is trying to tell me something. For those who did not see the article in last month's INC. Magazine or this month's Fast Company Magazine or the book that's written about him, let alone someone that you know who has experienced Neeleman serving them a snack on one of his flights, I'll condense what this guy is all about and the results he's having thus far. Since most of this readership is results oriented I'll begin with the end. Jetblue is an airline with more than 6,000 employees and 57 twin-engine jets.

The Business Virgin: Branson Enters The Game
With his magazine failing him, Branson turned to the idea of setting up a record mail order business in 1970. At just 20 years old, Branson began placing record ads in Student and soon began to realize the high demand. He dropped out of high school and began focusing on his new business, which was now making a profit. This modest success allowed him to rent an empty shop on Oxford Street in London in order to set up a music store. His magazine staff was transferred to the discount record store and the operation began to take off. At a loss for a name, one of the girls suggested ‘Virgin’ since they were “complete virgins at business”. With that, the Virgin Empire was born.

The Internet's Marketing Silver Bullet
Appearing in the Wall Street Journal, Time magazine, Oprah, CNN, or even in a local or regional media outlet can immediately separate you and your business from all of your competitors. Now that you have news coverage you can take that TV segment or magazine or newspaper article and magnify it online via blogs, and social media. This is where traditional PR becomes the Internet’s silver bullet; the most important marketing tool available.

A is for Advertising
When I first started Exceptional Thinking, just about everybody told me that I should do some advertising and to be honest, that’s what I thought I should do too. After all, that’s what businesses do to promote their products and services don’t they? So, dutifully I advertised. First in a business magazine that resulted in nothing, then in a local community magazine – again nothing and then finally (I was learning my lesson at this point) in the local paper. Nothing there either.
