The Makings of a King: The Early Years of King Gillette
He had spent his entire life tinkering with ideas, most of which the rest of the world would call him crazy for. It was not until King Gillette was in his 40s that he would patent and begin to sell his disposable safety razor. It was an invention that made him a household name and revolutionized the shaving industry in the process. Today, Global Gillette continues to rank as one of the most dominant brands in the industry.

On The Cutting Edge: Gillette Gets An Idea For A Business
In 1895, Gillette decided it was time to return home. Moving back to Fond du Lac in Wisconsin, he took up work as a salesman for the Crown Cork & Seal Co. The company’s founder, William Painter, had invented the cork-lined bottle cap and turned it into a profitable business. Still, at 40 years old, Gillette wanted some of that success for himself.

Italy vs Holland
Growing up I couldn’t wait to get out of my puny little town of 100,000. Now I live in a town of less then 1,000. And strangely enough, as I open my eyes to look around, I know that it is exactly where I’m supposed to be right now.

Will That Franchise Work in My Community?
Many people think that their town is unique. Is this true? This article will give you tools to help you determine if your town really deserves special attention.

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?

Ready, Set, Go! Get Strategic on Values
Imagine this...your company spends dollars, time and energy to refine your mission, vision and values in a long needed retreat to reorient the team toward business success. Similar to the evangelist that comes to town to rev everyone up, the passion can often dissipate as the evangelist’s tent is disassembled and goes off to the next town. How can the passion become self-sustaining long after the retreat and into the future? The answer rests in getting and remaining strategic around the values you and your charges spend so much time identifying and marketing.

The Search for Normality
Recently, I heard about a group of advertising agencies that constantly seek what they call a "normal" city or town. Apparently, what they are looking for is the demographically perfect example of the United States. They spend a great deal of time searching for this elusive pocket of normality. Even when they find a city or town that they deem to be normal, within a year or two they have to move on, because the existing site is-for whatever reason-no longer "normal."

Who Wants a Coffee Franchise?
If you look around your community or town you will find that there are all kinds of businesses (unless of course you live in a very small town or community of course). It takes all kinds of businesses to keep a community running smoothly and meet the laws of supply and demand. Now, take a look at your community through the eyes of a potential business owner. Take note of specialty shops, franchise stores, and retail establishments that line the streets and boulevards of your hometown. Is there are coffee franchise among the mix and if so, how many?
Maybe States Could Just Swap Their Senators
See, with SWEEP, Wisconsin and Illinois could actually swap senators. Never mind that voters elected them in different places (heck, when has what the voters wanted ever stood in the way of progressive hope and change?)... what matters is that everybody's drinking beer and voting with people they completely agree with. I'm sure there must be a commensurate number of minority Republican state senators in Illinois who'd be happy to commute to Madison to provide a quorum, and to have some beers with other Republicans....
Great Leadership Requires Inspiration
Go out and take a walk. As you stroll around your city, town, or countryside, think of all the good things about it and remember why you chose to live there. Get out of town and take a hike in nature. As you walk around, think about all the wonderful things about your state or nation, and why you're blessed to live there. Walk around your home, inside and out, and think about all the reasons your own home is such a blessing, too....
