Lesson #1: “What differentiates us is that we are not repeating tradition”
“In 1980, the whole Swiss watch industry was oriented to develop and present its collection of Quartz watches,” says Biver. “Even prestige brands like PP, AP, VC had in those days a proportion of 70% more or less quartz movements in their collection. The Swiss watch industry had its biggest crisis and many watchmakers couldn’t find a decent job and as a consequence left the industry.”

Credited as having single-handedly saved the Swiss watch industry from the quartz movement, Jean-Claude Biver is a man whose name has become synonymous with quality instruments for telling the time. He brought the Blancpain and Omega brands back to life, and, since 2004, has been heading up Hublot, one of the world’s most renowned watch companies.

The Swiss Flex their Muscles by Intervening in their Currency Again!
Oh the Swiss Central Bank (Swiss National Bank - SNB) is at it again! They are intervening in the currency market by selling their currency (furiously, I might add)!

Keep Your Fire Stoked
In so many ways this fire can be compared to a marketing team of professionals. It is nice to sit and watch the fire, watch the flames flicker but soon if you only watch and don’t feed your fire it dies down. You start to feel the chill back in the air. You must get up and put on another log on the fire.

Twelve Steps to Business or Sales Team Health
They read your watch and tell you the time. Consultants certainly do this. It is a valuable service because we get too bound up in our own operations and lose the ability to read our own watch! In the next several paragraphs I will share the parameters we examine to answer the question, ‘Is this sales and marketing operation in good order?’ You may be responsible for an entire business, a division, department, or only your own sales territory. You can still make use of this list to read your own watch.
At The Risk Of Making Myself Extremely Unpopular!...
Football (Soccer) is a subject that builds great emotion in the heart of the average british male (and some females too). People will happily spend hundreds if not thousands of pounds per year going to watch their favourite team, they buy the latest 'strip', they travel hundreds of miles to watch away games, they pay for Sky TV to watch the best matches live and even travel abroad to watch a match. Football (or Soccer if you are in the US) is a revered sport of gods!
Online Videos … The Move to Entertain, Educate, Sell
If you're like us you're watching more of your TV over the Internet. Why not? No need to let some psycho at the network dictate what you watch and when. Funny thing is the ads even look better on the iNet. They're faster, crisper, more entertaining. Ok not all...some are long, boring, sloppy, crappy! All by ourselves we're going to change all that (yeah right) with some advice to those folks on how they can produce better videos that folks want to watch. If only a few listen maybe you'll want to begin a steady diet of marketing videos. Wouldn't that be great you watch the stuff then you go buy the stuff, the economy gets better, you miss more TV shows, watch more stuff on the Web and the cycle continues till we finally take most governments off life support and they act like responsible citizens...cool !!!!

Be A Hawk
Whatever your endeavor, from getting into shape to driving your business, you need to be smart in the way you use your personal resources of time, energy, and focus. So watch for your own opportunities - watch like a hawk - and be ready, when it's time, to seize them....
The Need For Proper Positioning
Sigmund Freud did state that a cigar is a cigar, unless you attach alternate meanings to that ‘fire-stick’. However, in today’s context a watch is not exactly a watch: it is a brand! A brand has a name, and consumers identify with it in an emotional and intellectual way. The way a watch is positioned, dictates its pricing and audience. A product or service can be mainstream, high-end, or for a niche.
