I have a problem. Well, it’s more of an annoyance. We have RING cameras on the front and back of our house. In order to see the widest possible views, they had to be placed up high. Just like my new battery lawn mower and yard tools, the batteries are almost worth more than the…
Do you own a lathe? If you do, chances are woodworking is your hobby or business. Do you own a 3D printer? If you do, chances are you are in the manufacturing or design fields. I don’t own either, but owning a 3D printer would be cool and give me status. But, I don’t know…
What Gets Measured… Gets Done? There is a famous saying, “What gets measured gets managed”, or “What gets measured, gets done”. It’s often attributed to Peter Drucker (but his organizations said it was not him initially). Other sources say it was coined by William Thomson, the Scottish physicist also known as Lord Kelvin. That dude…
Have you ever been in an endless loop or Mobius strip conversation with a toddler? You know… the endless circle of WHY? When a toddler keeps asking “WHY?” in response to everything they hear or see, it’s called the “why stage” or “why phase”. As children grow and develop, they become more aware of their…
In the old days, you never had to take off your shoes and go through electronic monitors to get from the ticket counter to your airport gate. I don’t travel as much as I did a few years ago, but the few times I have, the lines are long, and the process is stressful. Because…
Last week, we were all served up some Pi (or 3.14 day)! So what is your favorite kind of pie? I like pecan (or do you say pe-con?). Business is like a big pie as well. You want to get your piece, but there is always more than enough to share. The funny thing is…
How often do you find yourself getting ads for something that you just searched for? It can be both creepy and annoying. Since the weather is so much better here in North Carolina than in Chicago, I have been lucky enough to play 20+ rounds of golf since January 1st. The golf here, especially in…
Let’s face it. If you are in business, your main point is to make sales. Another point is to make a sale while making a profit. And one more is, if it costs you less to run the business you get to keep more money. If business was that simple (which it really is) everyone…
Now that things are normalizing and the weather is getting better, I am getting back to some habits that helped me to become better both physically and mentally. Our dog Layla consistently wakes me up at 5 AM to go outside. At 6 AM she comes into my office to let me know it’s time…
In the final parts of the series, I wanted to show how and why following traditional marketing thinking can hamper your success in B2b marketing.
