What's important to understand, if you want to build and sustain your business, is how you can prevent this from occurring. Why spend countless hours of time, heaps of money and plenty of precious energy marketing your business, if new clients just slip out through holes after you siphon them into your barrel?

Guerrilla Marketing Memes
| |
| The prehistoric man, Uba, spent all day in the rain trying to catch a fish because his family was very hungry and in dire need of food. But he was unable to grab a fish from the stream even though he occasionally got his hands on one. Frustrated and weak from hunger, he just couldn't grab any fish firmly enough because it would slither from his hands and return to the stream. Worse yet, the light rain turned to a heavy rain and Uba was forced to seek shelter in a nearby cave.

Are you fishing or hoping for a free boat ride?
| |
| This morning Joanne and I were talking to some locals on a tiny island where we’re hanging out for a few days. We saw a fishing boat come in right after a pretty violent storm. There were probably 20 guys hanging around the edges of this very small boat. No one is paid for their services – they all fish and keep track of their catch. Typically, they pay the captain and owner of the boat 2 pounds of fish per day for the privilege of fishing from his boat. |
