5 Signs Your P̶h̶o̶n̶e̶ Deal Is Compromised

Had someone spy through your phone?

The thought of it alone instils 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?
