5 Signs Your P̶h̶o̶n̶e̶ Deal Is Compromised

Had someone spy through your phone?

The thought of it alone instills horror.

Here's the latest five warning signs I read;

• battery suddenly drains way quicker
• overheats when idle
• strange spikes in data consumption
• SMS containing odd or unusual characters
• weird activity when not in use, like screen lighting up or emitting sounds

Protections hail vigilance as an ever-present. Set strong passwords (which you must periodically change), run security checks, remove unrecognised apps, and keep backups in case you must do a 'full reset'.

It's a small hop from phone to deal. Here's a first-run five warning signs our ambitions are compromised;

• ad hoc internal meetings about the bid increase
• lengthier chunks of silence occur between prospect conversations
• suddenly fielding requests demanding urgent reply
• questions asked stick out as incongruous compared to those before
• any openness experienced drains away

One of the oldest tips I was ever given;

"when you're going to land a deal, you know it".

The point being - for those that really understand the true meaning of process - the feeling is there.

Any of that quintet above quashes such feeling. Rightly so.

Are you properly tracking the warning signs that your P̶h̶o̶n̶e̶ Deal is compromised?
