It's the Little Things!
The next time we start cutting price to match the competition, slimming services to make up for the lost margin - maybe we should think again.

Almost everything that happens before you fly on a plane is not as it seems. In order to deal with anxiety, the airlines put on a show. They've been doing it for a long, long time, and it's starting to show signs of wear and tear. The show is getting old and the lies are starting to show. Here's some snips from an Economist article (hat tip to the Freaknomics blog):
An Introduction to Trojan Horse Marketing
Let me introduce you to a marketing principle called Trojan Horse Marketing. The reality is, when people see a marketing message or a promotion, their walls go up further. Trojan horse marketing works in the real world. Why? Because even if your prospect has strong walls and fortresses, when they see your Trojan horse, they see it as a gift from heaven, and they bring that gift inside the barriers. That’s what Trojan Horse Marketing is about. It’s about how to position your marketing as a Trojan horse; as a gift; as a welcome distraction from life; as an answer from heaven.
Participating in an Overseas Trade Show
If you’ve ever organized participation in a trade show in the U.S., you know how much work it is! Selecting the right show, getting all the paperwork in on time, remembering to make hotel and travel reservations for everyone attending, deciding what your booth should look like….the tasks are seemingly endless! And doing a show overseas is that much more complicated, but the rewards can be great. Take a look at a few things which can help you prepare for an overseas show……..

Machine Gun Marketing
Ok, I am going to rant a bit over an honest mistake but in this day and age, I wonder what demographics this company is using? Several months ago, I started receiving a very high-end horse magazine. Suburbia me, I can't even remember the last time I was on a horse. In fairness, 15 years ago I did attend a horse show.
Getting Your Horse (Customers) to Drink Water
You may have heard the old adage of marketing and sales. Marketing is leading your horse to water. Sales is getting your horse to drink. The question we all want to know is how to get your horse to drink.

Leading the Horse to Water: strategies for managing motivation
You’ve heard the old saying, “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink”. What causes one horse to step right up and drink deep and another decide to take a pass? Leaders often ask the same question when frustrated by failed attempts to motivate their people. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t.
Lessons from a Maverick
What a lesson this brave little horse has to offer.

A Philosophy To Live By
Wisdom goes back a long way and comes in the form of examples, illustrations, stories, cliches, parables, etc. One of the oldest bits of philosophy says that “for want of a nail a shoe was lost, for want of a shoe a horse was lost, for want of a horse a rider was lost, for want of a rider a leader was lost, for want of a leader a battle was lost, for want of a victory a war was lost, for want of a plan a nation was lost.”
The Knight Dismounted
The present and future of a former great world power. The knight stopped his horse and simply sat for a moment. He was a big man, handsome and slightly battered sitting on a beautiful and powerful war horse. Amidst creaks and groans of metal and leather, from his equally tired horse he dismounted and then simply stood there. His helmet under his right arm, the reins in his left hand. He simply stood still and quiet, leaning his head against his horse’s shoulder. They were both weary, drained and in need of a long term rest or at least a respite from the unsustainable grind they had maintained for so many years.
