Own The Speaker's Stripy Jumper

Arh, Brexit. I blog this on the day after The Speaker of the House of Commons invokes a precedent from the year 1604. He states there can be no MV3 (a third meaningful vote – you have to admire the branding) in the foreseeable. The ever partial BBC describe this pretty

MWC 2019 Slide & Display Trends

From a viewpoint of what we might take for our own solution sales presentation, recent Mobile World Congress graphics have become fairly underwhelming. About time for an update on my previous entry [http://salespodder.com/little-progress-on-mwc-slide-runway/]. Firstly, I always like to see the odd word and number writ large on

One Engaging Moment Every Eight Minutes

[https://blog.sellingpower.com/gg/2019/01/five-things-you-do-wrong-in-product-demos.html] > you gotta be kiddin’… That was my immediate thought when seeing this slide. 8 minutes? How about 8 seconds! If you go 7m59s without any “engaging moment”, your demo audience will likely have zoned out. Lucky even, that they’re

Trillion Dollar Graphics

[nbim.no] The world’s largest sovereign wealth fund belongs to … Norway. Currently valued at a cool one trillion dollars. The envy of the planet. In what other country would their ring-fenced (in this case oil) tax revenues starting forty years ago still remain not only intact, but grown exponentially

Ramsay Hell Formula Back

Potty-mouthed TV chef Gordon Ramsay may not be universally loved, but his reality telly shows do set a standard. The format’s got tweaked down the years, even taking in hotels once, but essentially has stayed consistent. Decent business watching it is too. He and his team descend en masse

Top Argentine Coach Astonishes With Underhand Powerpoint Admission

Yes, I do love it when a powerpoint presentation makes global headlines. Marcelo Bielsa [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcelo_Bielsa] is in the highest tier of football coaches. He’s managed his native Argentina international team. A top job. As well as neighbours Chile. At club level he is

Can You Physically Show The Problem You Resolve Like These Schoolkids

This took me back to my tiny classroom days with a twinkle. The southernmost tip of Africa has a lighthouse, with a small museum at its base. Local school children have on display a project on ocean plastic. In the middle of one room, you’ll see from my pic

Does Annual Billionaire Founder New Year Resolution Match Your Sales Aims

Feeds are abuzz with the latest New Year Resolution of Gazillionaire Facebook Founder and all round figure of light/dark, Mark Zuckerberg. This year’s iteration seems to be garnering more opprobrium than usual, dismissed as mere techpreneur virtue signalling. Here’s eachwidely reported [https://www.businessinsider.com/mark-zuckerberg-new-years-resolutions-list-2018-1] accumulated

New Year Emulation Presentation

Building from yesterday [http://salespodder.com/curated-bizarrerie-for-the-kick-off-deck/]‘s thoughts on sales year Kick-Off presentation slidedeck ideas, I realised my feeds recently were full of listicle sewage around the seasonal fayre of resolutions. Then, a possible sighting of a rose growing alone on the surrounding manure. Someone decided to make a

Curated Bizarrerie for the Kick-Off Deck

Calendar year Sales Kick-Off events are looming. Typically for the mid- to late-Jan, the lubricated bonding get-together doubling as motivational push for the year ahead. Among the trumpets, perorations and glossing over the unpopular parts of the comp plan, leaders are usually required to deliver their presentation on a key
