NIQCL it for understanding
"Many failures in sales initially seem like a success to the rep! They get their perception of the facts, and propose a solution that makes sense to them. The problem is they didn't get the customer's perception of the facts, so their solution may not be sensible to the customer."

Why Leaders Need to Read the News
I often read authors and hear speakers who warn their audiences not to read or watch the news. Why? Because newspapers and news shows are so full of negativity. While this is certainly true, the advice is neither practical nor prudent.
Have you ever used a press kit ?
The media is all about offering the public information. It has to be interesting and appealing enough that a large majority of their viewers or readers will be interested in it.

Getting Smart A Buyers Guide to Market Research
Research extends the information available to you, and provides an important weapon in the battle to survive and prosper. Market research is available from a wide variety of sources, including market research firms, information services, advertising agencies, information brokers and information consultants. Some targeted research can be done in-house, but, in many areas, this is more expensive and less effective than outsourcing to an information services company.
AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT
How many times has someone you've called said, "Why don't you send me some information on your company"? Ask yourself, before you send anything: How will this be dealt with once it arrives at that person's desk. Aren't they already suffering from information overload? On the one hand, people say they need more information in order to make the decision just to meet with you, let alone to agree to buy or hire. On the other, they have more information about everything than they know what to do with.
II. INTERNET AND THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
The Internet and ICT more generally are new tools for information acquisition, processing, analysis, and transmission, but information is the underlying resource of value to entrepreneurs.

The Squirrel Effect
Like that squirrel, people often hide what they consider important to their personal survival in the corporate world. It’s called information. Hoarding bits and pieces, they act as if information alone is a work-life sustaining nutrient. The more information nuggets they have, the safer or more powerful they think they’ll be. And while those nuggets might help someone survive in a corporate culture where information is a bartered commodity, long term it won’t help them thrive. Here’s why.

TMI really is Too Much Information sometimes. In a world overflowing with more information we could possibly process let alone implement, it makes me wonder – do I really need to know all of this in order to be successful?

A New Kind of Resolution for Uncertain Times
“The significant problems we have cannot be solved at the same level of thinking with which we created them.” (Albert Einstein) At this time of economic crisis, there is a tremendous pull towards making decisions built on a model of data analysis and information gathering. We are, after all, in the Information Age … that period of our history in which there's been a global focus on the manipulation of information.
