Aussie Quote Slides

I’ve blogged on this slant before, and I think it’s worth a quick revisit. The inspiration comes from a presentation zen [http://www.presentationzen.com/presentationzen/2011/08/eye-gaze-and-the-power-of-faces.html] post on how to best utilise quotations in a pres. I was coaching an Australian sales team on

TOS-DR

Here’s an interesting site [http://tos-dr.info/] I came across. Its mission; > “I have read and agree to the Terms” is the biggest lie on the web. We aim to fix that. They trawl through each web service provider’s terms and conditions, and strip out what you need

Precious Over Corporate Colours

[http://www.google.com/about/datacenters/gallery/#/all] I came across a piece of a Google pr the other day. They hosted a photo gallery [http://www.google.com/about/datacenters/gallery/#/all] of the where, who and how of their services. I was struck by the wonderful use of

Skynews Business Slide Makeover

[https://salespodder.com/content/images/wordpress/2012/10/skynews-latest-business-slide-01.jpg] I noticed recently that these small, regular bulletins throughout the day have tweaked their main way of showing info.

€2¾bn Sustainability Sell

[http://sustainability.oce.com] Disclaimer: I’ve got quite a bit of time for this outfit, having got to know how many of its talented salespeople operate in the latter half of the last decade. Working recently on a completely unrelated project, I came across their sustainability ambitions. And tremendous

Marker Pens

[https://salespodder.com/content/images/wordpress/2011/09/markernib.jpg] Marker pens. Big thick metallic cylinders with a chunk of ink-laden felt at one end. Got one in your bag? Despite the advent of ever cuter presentation tech, when the time comes there’s still nothing to better that leap

Gold Medal Graphics – Florence Re-Visited

[https://salespodder.com/content/images/wordpress/2012/08/day-7-top-4-nations.jpg] Another hat-tip to the Times’ graphics department. Who is the top country day-by-day?
