Chewing Off a Piece of Success: Wrigley’s Gum Starts to Taste Even Sweeter
He had tried selling soap, and he had tried selling baking powder, but it was not until Wrigley Jr. started offering two free packages of chewing gum with each baking soda purchase that he realized he had stumbled upon the winning product. With the gum even more popular than his first two products combined, Wrigley Jr. launched Wrigley Chewing Gum in 1892 with a mission to bring chewing gum to the masses.
Lesson #1: “Everybody likes something extra, for nothing.”
When Wrigley Jr. first arrived in Chicago in 1891, he knew that the $32 in change that was jingling in his pockets was not going to take him very far. But Wrigley Jr. had something else going for him that could rival even the deepest pockets: he had enthusiasm, energy, and talent as a salesman. It was those qualities that were going to help him come up with the idea that would get his company off the ground to a running start.

Excellent Marketing To Get In A Lather About!
One of my favourite trips out is to a small northern mill town called Hebden Bridge here is West Yorkshire. There are a number of reasons why I love this place so much, first of all it is beautiful, it just lies in a small valley in the pennines surrounded by lovely clean clear countryside, it has the river and a canal and a multitude of beautiful walks. The energy is uplifting and the people are typical northerners which means they are plain talking, friendly and very helpful. But by far the best attraction for me as a marketer is the town its self. Why?

Companies Mutate or Die
One of my favorite points with young growth companies, whether private or public, is that I focus on the people because the company almost certainly won't end up building what it says it will, so I better like you guys.

Super Guru Mega Launches Are They All Just Scams
This morning sees the launch of another high-priced mega launch by another Internet Marketing Guru. As usual, one of my list members wrote me asking if they should purchase the product.

Sales and emotional intelligence
The "gender" discussion highlighted by my Sell like a Woman project, articles and other research leads people to believe that women are doing things men cannot because of gender. And this is causing sighing and forelock tugging in some male circles. "Not another feminist on her soap box" or "all men are useless" I hear some say.

How To Recognize Inspirational Leadership
The line is sometimes fuzzy between inspirational leadership and run-of-the-mill agitation. When leaders stand on soap boxes and deliver passionate speeches, the words and tone often sound the same. But to me, the difference between agitation and true inspirational leadership is often found over time. If you follow something, and it makes you a better person, it was inspirational leadership. If it brings out your less desirable qualities, it probably wasn't....
