Art in the Corporate Environment
I want to take up the subject of presentations and hope to pass on some of our hard won and often challenged, expertise in this area! This is kicked off with the help of Stuart Price whose article in an old old edition of the MacUser subscribers newsletter, ‘MacUser 2’, took the words right out of our mouths back in 1997 when we first saw it. Well done Mr Price, all these years later your article is still valid! Perhaps that’s not such a good thing, but we’ll take it up now anyway! So with the very kind permission of the wonderful MacUser (leading Mac Magazine), it’s equally wonderful editor, Karen Harvey and the no less wonderful writer himself Stuart Price, we are including here the very same article.

Zen and the Art of The One Page Business Plan
Planning is a dialog. It starts deep within you. When it’s appropriate... you will begin the process of exposing the dialog to your external world. The initial form may be written notes, informal discussions with people you trust. When it’s appropriate, you will expand the dialog to your community. The dialog will grow stronger... or die. Remember when your mother told you to mind your business... maybe she was right. Your life... is your business. Two questions: - Who are you? - Who will you serve? Planning your business... is planning your life. The process of thinking before doing... is planning. Everyone has plans... every day! Sometimes the plans are important enough to put in writing. The successful have concise, clear plans and take action on them... and they may be in writing.

10 Steps for Your Sales Force to Survive and Thrive in the Recession
I was in the pool, playing catch with our six-year old son, when Henry began a "dialog" with me. He said, "You can't play catch in the pool. It's against the rules." I was stunned, but apologized, said I wasn't aware of that rule and removed the football from the pool. There was another guy in the pool and he mentioned to me that the pool rules did not include an exclusion about playing catch. I mentioned that to Henry and he became irate because he owns one of the resort's units, wrote the rules himself, and said, "It better be on that sign!" So what's wrong with this picture?

The Power Of Social Media For Marketing Your Business
Social media can be a very powerful tool for promoting your product, service, or brand. But be careful. If social media is misused, it can turn off your followers.

That means you don't have second chances and you have to be extra careful with your dialog.

This is the 1st in the series of the 10 Kurlan Sales Management Functions. #1 - COACHING In its simplest form, sales coaching consists of the following two activities: 1.

3 Lessons Microsoft Taught Us About Branding
How many years has Apple been dictating how the public perceives "the PC" with its ongoing dialog between our two stars in the "I'm a Mac. I'm a PC." commercials? Is there a lesson we can learn from this. After all, if Microsoft can make mistakes, lose market share and waste marketing dollars, isn't there some takeaway that we can learn from the sidelines in watching this rivalry?

The French Open and Customer Service Training
Did you know that the word discussion comes from the Latin root “dis,” which means “apart,” and “quatere,” which means “to shake,” so the word discussion literally means: “to shake apart.” This, of course, is what we do to each other when we are having heated discussions! The word dialog, on the other hand, comes from the Greek root “dia,” which means “across,” and “legein,” which means to “speak” – literally “to speak across” (i.e. – to engage someone in a conversation by reaching across to them).

Attention B2B Marketers : Embrace the Future (It ain’t Plastics, it’s Mobile)

Just one word.” Benjamin: “Yes, sir.” Mr. McGuire: “Are you listening?” Benjamin: “Yes, I am.” Mr. McGuire: “Plastics.” Benjamin: “Just how do you mean that, sir?”
