Flatpack Dealer Product Slide

I’ve been a little (maybe overly) captivated by re-runs of three fly-on-the-wall hours behind the scenes inside Ikea. The first part [https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6fi9b2] featured an arc on the production of their annual catalogue. An eye-watering 203 million copies of which are snapped up by salivating

Blue Sky Alignment

Relax. I don’t like the term blue sky thinking either. Although given that across various parts of the world you can see a sky of pretty much any colour you like, to label something promising with your own brand colour of choice can work. Especially on a one-off slide,

High Speed Rail Journey Time Saving Charts

Peacetime infrastructure projects in the UK over the past century have typically been an utter shambles.

England seeks to end this mockery with a so called brand new high

Oscaring Your List Slide

[https://twitter.com/theacademy] Last night’s curtain fell on the latest annual movie gong season with the Oscars. Above is a google image results screenshot of various nomination slides as announced by The Academy back on 13 Jan. A simple grey background, with an etched feint branding – including key

Autocomplete Answering Goes Mainstream

[https://twitter.com/BorisJohnson/status/1222280472132308993] I’ve blogged on the sales-wonder of autocomplete before (here’s two, from May [http://salespodder.com/the-essence-of-selling-from-heavyweight-champion-of-the-world/] then Oct [http://salespodder.com/when-worlds-biggest-advertiser-uses-the-autocomplete-slide-so-can-you/] of 2017). Now it seems the freshly installed UK Prime Minister is rebalancing their messaging channels to push digital marketing

Is Your Proposal Modernising?

The British web couldn’t get enough of this week’s meeting announcing swathes of job losses at the news division of tax funded broadcaster, BBC. Through this, I was also intrigued to learn of their original mission, “happier homes, broader culture and truer citizenship”, which is nowadays replaced by

> oh, yes, another one! 2015 [http://salespodder.com/5-lessons-for-your-next-proposal-layout-from-uk-party-general-election-2015-manifesto-designs/] , 2017 [http://salespodder.com/5-lessons-for-your-next-proposal-layout-from-uk-party-snap-general-election-2017-manifesto-designs/] and now 2019 offers up another chance to gauge how UK political manifesto presentation might aid our selling collateral. This time ’round, I was less interested in the actual glossy magazine shoot that has become th

Which Three To Focus On?

A presenter in the world of procurement shared with me a psychology tip they’d found works well. A big fan of rules of three – whether it be a structure like PREP or reminder to talk in triplets – they suggested that when shown any list, an audience will only remember

Previous Year Wrap Intro Slide

It’s that time of year again. A Sales presentation for internal eyes looms at either or both of the final get-together of the year or the sko (sales kick off) event for the next one. Most such forums have a slide that sums up what’s gone before. A

5 Fanged Buyer Questions

I quickly snapped this hazy graphic from a telly playing the CNBC stocks and shares show Halftime Report. The panel discussion was around the merits of buying a part of any of the so-called Fangs. Normally five, they chose to purposely omit Apple from these particular riffs. (Facebook Amazon Netflix
