America’s Blue-Collar Banker: The Early Years of Amadeo Peter “A.P.” Giannini
| |
| Home mortgages, auto loans, installment credit – they may be taken for granted today, but before this son of Italian immigrants came along, such things didn’t exist. Amadeo Peter Giannini – A.P. to his friends – revolutionized the banking world by focusing on “the little people.” Giannini passed away in 1949 at the age of 79. By that time, the bank he had founded, the Bank of America, had become the largest bank in the world, with $7 billion in assets and more than 525 branches in over 300 American cities. Today, Giannini stands out as one of TIME Magazine’s Builders and Titans of the 20th century – the only banker to make this list of the century’s most 100 important people. |

Using New Event Marketing to Promote Your Small Business

Are You Doing the Moon Walk --- Going Backwards While Moving Forward
| |
| The death of Michael Jackson recently was a tragic event. No matter what you thought of Michael personally, there is no doubt that he was one of the most talented entertainers of all time. His singing and dancing talent showcased so effectively by his performance in the video and album “Thriller” will be remembered forever as the Capstone of his career. I, like millions of his fans, mourn his passing.
However, the one thing that I remember the most is his invention of the “Moonwalk”. The “Moon Walk” is a dance move that looks as if you are going forward when in reality you are moving backward. Michael made that move famous. His tragic sorrowful death reminded me of that move. The Moon Walk itself brings to mind how many businesses often struggle to achieve success; doing things that are supposed to gain market share and create success. |

Guest Post: From Nateedmondson.com

| I don’t want to publicly criticize anyone in particular, so I’m going to try and be careful with this explanation, but the reason I started thinking about this whole “God thing” idea is because of a recent use of the phrase that I thought seemed a little skeptical. There was an event that had been planned for months and about a week or so before a few details hadn’t been worked out yet. Thankfully everything ended up working out and the event was a success. After the event was underway and all systems were functional one of the leaders of this event made the statement, “man.. it’s just really a God thing. We had a lot of last minute details fall through on us and I’m just so pleased God worked everything out to his glory..” |

What do you do when ‘da bomb’ bombs? Good advice for event planners who don’t live in a perfect world…
| |
| In a perfect world, every meeting would come off without a hitch, every audience would leave enlightened and motivated, every client would be a hero, and you would never have heard of anyone called Murphy.
But we don’t live in a perfect world, and statistically, it’s simply not possible for every event to be a success. So I turned to some of my more experienced friends in the business people who have seen it all. I asked them a simple question: ‘Imagine you were giving advice to a newbie event planner or bureau agent, after the event he or she just handled went south…. what would you say?’ |
