…the bartenders asks, “What is this, some kind of joke?”

The SEM/SEO consultant says: 

The Social Media guru replies:   http://twitter.com/cherylharrison

And the spammer sputters, repeatedly:

Now this might strike you as a flippant excuse for a blog posting, silly even.  But greet it as an interactive game that may be passed along from one blogger to another. 

You might consider cut-&-pasting this blog with your own answers to the bartender’s query.

Just what would you have in the conversation balloons of these three characters?

What would your SEM/SEO consultant have to say to a spammer?

Who would you link into the Social Media guru?

What would a spammer have to say to a bartender?  Would it be humorous?  This is basically an exercise in what fun we may continue to have using our social media channels.  Please pass it on, and comment to me if you judge it stupid or if you surmise its possibilities.  Thanks.

Sales is not about Brilliance.

We leave Brilliance to Marketing, and on rare occasions some marketers approach Brilliance.

Sales is about Fundamentals.

The salesman/woman is not the fleet wide receiver or the Heisman-candidate quarterback.

Sales people are the offensive tackles, applying smashmouth in the trenches, doing the unglamourous deeds to help make the running back look so good.

These Fundamentals :  GOAL, a PLAN to funnel into the goal, WORK the plan, with discipline & consistence, daily.

and finally…ONE MORE…1 more phone call, 1 more e-mail, 1 more prospect discovered.
