Personality Pop Quiz For Prospect Secret Reveals

Here’s a cheeky BBC cartoon graphic in keeping with their core brainwashing values. This time, thinking it clever to sneer how “boring” the current snap electioneering and the likely winner are. Frontrunner Theresa May faced that staple of magazine quizzes. Choose from a binary pair of options and let

Urbanista Room Dressing

[http://futurecapetown.com/2017/02/report-church-square/] I’ve blogged on this vital skill [http://salespodder.com/do-you-dress-the-room/] before. Theatre stage designers can teach sellers a great deal. Not in terms of trap doors, no matter attractive one may often be, nor smoke and mirrors to add pizzazz to a presentation.

Sales Ransomware Patch

Who could be next? This weekend the most enormous, indiscriminate ransomware attack yet made global headlines. Those caring souls at Microsoft yet again leaving their customers exposed to extortion of Bond villain proportions which can now, it seems, be unleashed by teens in their pyjamas as well as organised or

I caught a potted history of colour naming from a telly magazine piece. Who knew the current trend for treating colours as if they were racehorses is by some placed at the door of Crayola. Their crayons begin with standard names in 1903, yet by 1949 their range expands to

Slidedeck Bonfyre

Glamping now so ordinary. Try a luxury festival in the Bahamas. Or not. Given the disaster that was this weekend’s Fyre Festival. Widely reported [http://www.edmsauce.com/2017/04/28/horrifying-time-line-fyre-festival-privilege-fraud-exploitation-now-arrests/] , relief tents and cheese sarnies greeted astonished revellers.
