    10. Page yourself over the intercom. (Don't disguise your voice.)9. Find out where your boss shops and buy exactly the same outfits. Then wear them one day after your boss does. (This is especially effective if your boss is a different gender than you are.)8. Make up n

    The Benefits of Heavy Duty Office Chairs
    Heavy-duty office chairs offer comfort as well as extreme durability. Office chairs are an important part of the average office or cubicle. A good ergonomic office chair allows an employee to remain comfortable while sitting for a period of time. It is important that heavy-duty offic
    Today I received a long letter from a man who created a new self-defense system. He claims he can defeat anyone in under 3 minutes.

    He wants me to promote him and his method. He went on to say he'd be happy to meet with me to prove his skills.

    What did he have in mind?

    He wants to beat me up.

    I'm serious.

    "If I can defeat you within 3 minutes," he said in his letter, "then you promise to promote me and my products. Deal?"

    He went on to give me the contact information for his agent so I could set up the match.

    It might have made an interesting webcast. I can just see the headline:

    "51-year-old formerly obese Internet Marketing Expert meets 30-year-old Superman-fit Martial Arts Expert in Quick-Kill Match. Register now."

    Gee, I wonder who would win?

    I'd lose even if I went armed.

    What would you have done?

    How would you have responded to his offer?

    Six Rules for Great IT Project Success

    Merchandising Methods
    When people hear the term merchandising, many think of window displays or perhaps the mass proliferation of Disney memorabilia. However, merchandising is a much broader concept, encompassing everything a company does to package and present its products or services.

    Simply Put - Simple Sells

    I don't claim to be a fighter and am not seeking bouts. I'm also not seeking new clients. Especially clients who want to break my nose to prove they are better than me.

    When you reach out to anyone, keep in mind that no one likes to be told they are inferior. It is not a good way to win friends and influence people. In fact, it's not a good way to do much of anything.

    I think the lesson here is that we all have egos. The better way to approach people is to put your ego under theirs.

    In other words, be willing to lower your status. Don't flaunt your stuff. Instead, show your weakness and ask for help.

    This nervy fighter might have done better by offering to teach me his new method, not offering to embarrass me with it.

    This works in your marketing, too.

    Rather than boast that you or your business is the greatest, focus on how you or your business can make your customer or client the greatest.
